I don't know exactly how it does it by Google Maps on my Android phone pops up traffic adversaries telling me the state of the local traffic - if it's not doing it for you have a look in the app settings and see if you can turn on the feature.
I have a SatNav that does that for me
I was actually thinking of the PC version, rather than the Android one. While we're on Google Maps, I don't know how we managed before StreetView - if I have to go somewhere new or pick up someone from a house I don't know, I usually check it out first with StreetView so I know what to look out for.
