It always has been a part of the terms of use.  The terms of use are
the same in every city.  The _intent_ behind the restriction I would
guess is to prohibit developers using Google services to provide a
SatNav type application.  As that is exactly what you seem to want to
do, I don't think you will find a way around the terms.

What constitutes 'real time' (update every minute? every 5 minutes?
any multiple updates during one journey?) is a matter of
interpretation.  Google's lawyers may take a different view to you, it
might be wise to consult your own lawyer.

Multiple updates are also restricted by both rate-of-request and
volume-of-request mechanisms, which would I think also affect your
application.
