There could be the map customization, either [F] Full customization or [P] Partial customization is selected.
[F] customization, the roads and lanes tend to be neat and lean.
[P] customization, the roads and lanes tend to be broader.

During navigation, only user waypoints will appear on map.

NĂ¼vi from our 2X5, 7X5 or 500 series families could support animated icons.
Unfortunately, even the 800 series do not have this feature.
