1. A method for choosing a traffic route, the method comprising:

  • identifying traffic segments between an identified start point and an identified end point;

    generating a plurality of traffic routes between the identified start point and the identified end point, wherein each of the plurality of traffic routes corresponds to a respective set of traffic segments;

    receiving traffic speed data associated with each traffic segment;

    determining a first total travel time for each of the plurality of traffic routes based on predicted travel time determined for each traffic segment based on the received traffic speed data;

    determining a first fastest available traffic route based on the total travel times for each of the traffic routes;

    notifying a user of adjusted travel times on the first fastest available traffic route when one or more traffic events adjust the first predicted travel time beyond a pre-defined threshold; and

    notifying the user of a second fastest available traffic route, the second fastest available traffic route having a shorter total travel time than the first fastest available traffic route.
