for the FM TMC traffic, you get a 90 day subscription to its service and after that it's $60 to renew for a whole year. My subscription just ran out April 1st and I haven't decided if I want to pay for the service just yet. For me, I don't think I would get my money's worth since I don't drive as much as before. Plus, the info is not as "real time" as I would like it to be.

I can understand if they miss an accident or something of that nature, but on the 22 freeway here in SoCal, there's been some major work being done where some entrances and exits are closed completely, yet it's never updated in the system. These kind of traffic info should be easy to update since they should be getting that info from Caltrans.
