Traffic Gauge is a service that shows you highway traffic maps for major US metropolitan cities. Using the iPhone interface you can check local traffic conditions prior to your morning commute from your iPhone. Just select your city from the drop down menu. There is a legend to explain the color codings. Green is good (light traffic), Orange is for slow traffic, Red is not good meaning stop and go, and grey areas are lacking data.
