ABSTRACT:
In a method for route-selective reproduction of digitally encoded traffic annoucements broadcast by a transmitter to a vehicle receiver, the announcements being decoded in a decoder of the receiver, a comparison of route-specific characteristics with characteristics of the trip route is performed. If the characteristics agree to a predetermined extent, the driver is provided with the traffic announcement applicable to him, via a visual and/or acoustical output device. In a feature of this method, the road types and their numerical designations are used as the route-specific characteristics. In a further feature of this provision, major route segments and shorter route segments may also serve as route-specific characteristics. By means of a trip segment transducer, the distance already covered can also be ascertained, so that only traffic announcements pertaining to obstructions in regions of the route that are still to be covered are transmitted. By additionally evaluating the driving speed, traffic announcements pertaining to very distant obstructions that can be expected to have been eliminated by the time that segment is reached can also be suppressed. The advantage of these provisions is that the driver is not distracted by a great number of traffic advisories that are not relevant for him.
