At least here in europe if you have traffic on, it will when a traffic announcment comes on, disrupt whatever your are listening to and let you listen to the traffic coded message.

It should raise and lower the volume based on the level of background noise.

The ASL button automatically connects you to your favorite pre-programmed AOL instant messenger Chat room, and will list your A/S/L in the Chat log. It's part of the Chris Hansen preferred option package.

The grenade launcher startled me at first when I initially hit the traffic button. Now I use it religiously to clear the path of slow moving cars. What an awesome feature to have handy in rush hour, especially being in Chicago.
