This is a really useful and well done app. I check it frequently. It is there to give you eyes-on information on road conditions and weather hazards to keep you and your loved ones safe.

I give you 5 stars. Please make it better. For us when I cluck on the button to see me moving on the map. Later I have to back to cluck the button because I'm not moving on the map

The app is showing outdated information... It's feb 12th and 35 degrees this morning in Houston, the app is stuck on Jan 21st and a balmy 68 degrees... How can I trust road conditions when it can't get the date right...

This app is utterly useless. I downloaded it because of the storm moving, so I could keep up with road flooding. When I needed it most, the app “couldn't connect to Tran Star” and now I've been stranded on the road for four hours.

Could not disable notifications for flooding and road closures.

The app has seen some improvements over time, but there's also been some regression. I remember when the app used to tell you which lanes were affected during an accident or construction. Now it doesn't. I am a semi-trucks driver and that was the most useful feature to me. It allowed me to take one of the open lanes in advance before getting to the traffic congestion. It is also hard to read text when tapping on an icon for more information. The gray text and black background don't go together.

Does not show flooding on side streets. Dangerous to go by this map! Also, you can't get directions from another starting point. Useless App! With so much flooding in Houston!
