VERA was a backronym for VErkehr (traffic) in Real Audio or Verkehrsradio. The 24-hour schedule consisted entirely of traffic information updated and compiled by WDR's Traffic Department. All traffic information and messages were provided through a speech synthesis system, which was then read by a male, computer-generated voice. There was no live on-air announcer.
