Radio info: traffic reports in Germany

[scott.john.mockry@bangate1.tek.com]

Joe,

Great info on the radio features. I'm back in the good ol "ooh ess ah" USA

So thats what those buttons on the radio were for.............if I had only known......I could have
been drinking beer much earlier in the day.......and avoiding that crazy traffic. Of course, how
do you say "traffic jam" in German. Is "Der Verkehrsstau" the correct word?  My german class
has not covered this subject yet.
Next time I will touch base with you before I head out on the road.
Scott M.
