From the dialogue box, you can see the vehicle’s location, when it arrived at that location, its current speed and the direction where it is headed to. At the upper left-hand corner of the box, you’ll see how long the vehicle has been on its current state. You can also view the trail that your vehicle has taken over the past 24 hours.
