Hi does anyone know if its possible to display the traffic conditions notification on my Apple watch, rather than on the iPhone itself ?

You know how the iPhone (my best guess here on how it actually KNOWS !! ) detects your car's Bluetooth, then checks Maps, against your home location and work location and gives you a quick rundown on how long it'll take you to get home or to work. Then gives you a notification on your phone.

Well I find that extremely handy, as i have two routes to choose from.. One the highway, which if an accident can make your route a misery.. Or a road that runs adjacent to the highway.. Which has about 10 sets of lights to gamble thru. But is always a better option than the highway if there's any incident.

Maps on the Apple Watch was designed for quick navigation rather then a full blown maps app like on the iPhone. The only way to view traffic conditions and alternative routes are from the iPhone itself which will then show on the watch.
