The navigation systems in Japan are much more advanced than systems in other areas. They use a system called VICS to send traffic condition updates to the vehicles via FM sub-bands, cell phone hook-ups, and even IR transmission when your vehicle is under a stop light! In metropolitan areas the system will tell you where the minute by minute traffic congestion is.
Some of the navi systems will even tell you which parking lots are full.
