Knowing the local traffic on your town or city network of roads can be great--however, if you live in a small town without major roadways, or, just want to save some iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 battery life, we suggest you turn off this somewhat-useful feature. The way this feature is supposed to work is that it broadcasts your current speed information to the map database, so, if you turn on traffic reporting in your map application, it will currently show where those dreaded traffic slowdowns are. If you don't care about this information, then simply turn off this setting as follows:
iPhone Settings --> Location Services --> Traffic
This should squeeze even more power out of that battery-sucking iPhone 3, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S. Again, with the larger battery of the iPad, this setting may or may not help. If you never leave home with the iPad, simply turn off this feature since it is doing nothing to help your user experience.
