Major Accident on Freeway City Equip is coded as?

Encoding uses a numeric level for the incident and then letters to represent the key elements of the description, with a connector for the linking word in the phrase. Here, 7 stands for a Major incident. The word “on” is represented by the connector X. The location/resource words map directly to letters: Freeway → F, City → C, Equipment/Equip → E. Put together, Major Accident on Freeway City Equip becomes 7XFCE exactly in that order. The other options don’t capture all elements in the same sequence: 7XF omits City and Equip; 11B uses a different scheme not aligned with the words; 9 is just a single digit with no location or resource detail.
