Simple and multipurpose traffic information is made possible by a method for selecting traffic information which is to be sent to a mobile wireless terminal from a traffic information center and which pertains to a geographic area of a road traffic network selected on the mobile wireless terminal side and/or selected based on the position of the mobile wireless terminal. On the basis of selection information representing the selection of a geographic area, map information pertaining to the selected area is selected in the traffic information center from a digital map of a traffic network, which digital map is available in the traffic information center. On the basis of the selection information, traffic status information pertaining to the geographic area of the road traffic network and representing the traffic status on road sections of the road traffic network are selected from the traffic status information available in the traffic information center. Graphic traffic information based on the selected map information and on the selected traffic status information is transmitted by mobile radio to the mobile wireless terminal for joint graphic display.
