Incident severity	High	The incident either accident, congestion, or reckless driving that takes more than 10 minutes before clearance/identification
	Medium	The incident either accident, congestion, or reckless driving that takes from 5 to 10 minutes before clearance/identification
	Low	The incident either accident, congestion, or reckless driving that takes up to 5 minutes before clearance/identification
Incident type	Accident	The vehicular and weather-related variables show the classified incident is an accident
