From their website-
"TomTom IQ Routes™ puts the driving experience of millions of TomTom users into your maps, calculating your route based on actual speeds driven on roads compared to speed limits. With TomTom IQ Routes™ you always get the smartest, most efficient route. Saving you time, fuel and money.
Traffic isn’t the same during Monday morning rush hour as it is on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Heavy traffic, rotaries, traffic lights, and even pedestrians or shopping crowds can slow you down. That route you’re looking for changes depending on the day and time, so the shortest route isn’t necessarily going to be the fastest. With TomTom IQ Routes™ you’ll always drive the fastest route."
