Verdict
Freeways and Traffic Expert both sit at 3.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 62% of Freeways's written reviews are positive against 4% of Traffic Expert's. Freeways also leads on chart position (#141 vs unranked). Traffic Expert's advantage is price (Free vs $2.99) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
