Please explain how you take another route when you are already on the
M4.


The chances of there being a big queue on the M4 that the london radio
stations don't know about when most do travel news every 15 mins is
pretty
slim. Probably about the same as you getting on a train and it getting
stuck just outside the station.


15 minutes is more than long enough to drive past the last escape route
and
get stuck.

It's not unknown for quite a time to pass between an accident happening and
the first report of it on travel news, nor is it unknown for the first
report on travel news to give wrong information, e.g, about the location of
the accident.
