So always at lease once or twice a week, popup notification tells me a car is driving in the wrong direction, usually 20 or 30 miles away from where I am.

How the heck do I turn this off? Seems like if I don't tap on X to close the window, it just stays on top, and it's big enough to block PCM screen.

I checked under NAV, and under notifications, no option.

Or am I stuck with this? I have a feeling this might be related to the live traffic setting, but I do want live traffic, but just don't need that notification.

Thanks.

Same here. First time I saw it was oh wow that’s cool but from the 2nd time I started seeing it, and noticed how it’s 50 miles away from me, I was just puzzled and annoyed. It happened like every other day.

Thread resurrection time!

I've gotten these from time to time and last night actually LOLed at the irrelevance of the full-screen takeover alert I was issued for wrong-way driving, 15 miles away on some road I've never even heard of. My mind went to a scene in Porsche R&D of product managers and engineers in agreement over wanting to put more effort into things like making the Spotify integration work better, but no, some powerful VP that sounds like Toto Wolff would be saying "The impoahtance of one-way driving notifications cannot be ovuhstated." ;)

Anywho, I'd also like to turn these off due to the inconvenience, but part of me also wants to keep seeing them, due to the hilarity.
