When a vehicle is located within a coverage of a radio station, a
navigation system for the vehicle outputs audio guidance on the basis of
received traffic information, provided that the traffic information is to
be output under a predetermined audio output condition according to a
congested area or stores the traffic information in a storage section,
provided that the traffic information is not under the predetermined
audio output condition according to the congested area. Then, when the
vehicle is located out of the coverage of the radio station, the
navigation for the vehicle outputs traffic information stored in a
storage section as audio guidance.
