BS PD ISO/TS 21219-15:2016 specifies the TPEG application: Traffic Event Compact (TEC). The TECapplication has been specifically designed to support information about traffic events (e.g. road works,traffic jams). A specific form of traffic events are local hazard warnings which, being safety-relatedmessages, are sent with high priority to warn a driver that may encounter dangerous situations (e.g.black-ice, accident beyond curves, obstacles on road, etc.) unexpectedly.Generally, the Traffic Event Compact application is designed to allow receivers to

• ensure travel safety for the driver,
• enable the calculation of alternative routes,
• avoid delays (e.g. traffic jams),
• warn the driver of obstructions on route, and
• provide the driver with information on infrastructural problems (e.g. closed petrol stations, nonfunctioningemergency telephones).
