Simply enter a destination, and Zumo takes you there with turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names. In addition, the Garmin Zumo 550 accepts customized points of interest such as school zones and safety cameras and includes proximity alerts to warn of upcoming POIs. It is also compatible with Garmin's Tour Guide a free utility that allows you to build and upload a database of POIs that are encoded with photos and MP3 files.

As an alternative, the Garmin Zumo 550 can receive optional TMC traffic alerts (in select cities) when used with a compatible traffic receiver. Simply press a button on the screen, and the Garmin Zumo 550 recalculates your route to avoid traffic tie-ups.
