Another thing I noticed yesterday: NextGen announced road works on motorway A7 here in germany with the following Voice (please take it just like you read)
"exclamation mark on A7. Road works..." In fact this seems to be another bug anywhere in TTS...

See here:

and/or here:

Obviously there must be a line that starts with a "!" (which is not a variable that I know of).

My guess would be that instead of !, it should be %s, OR, a word or phrase instead of ! such as something like

=Slow down! on {road variable}. Road works..

And maybe the word(s) before the exclamation mark got accidentally cut out.
Where this would actually be located, I don't really know since I have never had it happen, but it sort of seems like it would come from a TMC announcement since maps generally have no clue about "road works".
The only thing that I have in dictionary.voice that would maybe be applicable are these:

Roadworks ahead.="Road construction ahead."
Roadworks ended.="Road construction ended."

Are those used by TMC which then adds the road name? I don't know.
