Traffic accidents, incidents, etc. from Yahoo Traffic based on zip code. Usage: Touch the pylons to configure, touch screen to view incident details. Notes: I am not sure where Yahoo is getting the information, but it seems like it only supports major cities, or there are just not to many incidents. Currently only supports North America.

    Widget has been updated for better stability, and range. As far as traffic is concerned, it's all up to Yahoo on what they post.

    Yeah this isn't ready for primetime yet. I couldn't get traffic reports for the Metro DC area, only downtown Washington after much trial and error. Not much help for those of us out in the 'burbs.
