ABSTRACT:
A road information displaying method characterized in that detailed information can be obtained on an auxiliary indicator 1 without changing the scale of a main indicator 21 by setting a small auxiliary indicator 1 in an instrument panel 10 in addition to a main indicator 21 of a center console 20 and using a road information display method for displaying details of road information corresponding to the display of the main indicator 21 on the auxiliary indicator 1. Thus, operation is simplified because it is unnecessary to change the scale of the area being displayed and change of the direction of the driver's line of sight during driving is decreased because the auxiliary indicator 1 is set in the instrument panel 10, and safety is improved.
