When Traffic Information is downloaded in the UK is anyone aware in which order traffic incidents are listed. Mine seems to list from the middle in both directions. If you scroll to the top you get incidents listed by distance from you, nearest at the top. However, lower down in the list are incidents that do not indicate a distance but are nearer than those that do indicate a distance?

Also, not all incidents listed are represented by a symbol on the map?

Can anyone throw any light on this.


Thanks.

Motorway incidents are listed by distance at the top and have symbols on the map.

'A' road incidents are listed in alphanumeric order at the bottom e.g.

A12
A33
A452
A4600

If there is an incident on a stretch of 'A' road, the 'A' road symbol will be in red, rather than the usual green.
