In my experience Google Maps has never updated fast enough for it to make a difference if traffic gets much worse or an accident pops up if I'm using it to, say, go into Denver for a Nuggets game or something. It's about a 40 minute drive for me mostly interstate.

Sideline reporters are only good for getting injury/player updates. The Thursday night Bengals/Ravens game a great example of that.
