🚦📢 Exciting Announcement! 📢🚦

🎥 Tonight, we tested a new feature in the app that lets me connect with you through live video for real-time traffic reports! 🚗💨

✅ This feature will help me provide more detailed updates on major crashes, roadblocks, and shutdowns—like when I-24 is closed or a semi is blocking the road 🚛🚧.
✅ I can also show live images from the scene to help you navigate delays faster! 📸📍

📲 When I go live, just open the app, and it will start! It’s new, so there will be a learning curve, but I’d love your feedback! 💬 Let’s make this the best tool for staying ahead of traffic! 🚦👍
