    @wholemars I've got two tickets on FSD.. it's annoying.. Tesla should build in radar detector/waze style police awareness and slow down.

    @Ademola_Alesh Use Waze..advanced warning just slow down when needed..all other times foot down

    @leahfiles Switch to OSMand. Offline opensourced navigation. No tracking and no internet required. Works in the most remote places where Waze or Maps fail and stop working. More features and options than Waze and Maps combined. Take ownership of your privacy.

    @JayGenXer When using Waze on the 410, it actually comes up on the screen that the area has a high crash history. I hate driving anywhere near Brampton & try to avoid it.

    @Serk_TX @deaflibertarian Fine by me. Waze is slow and irritating. Google never gets me lost. And, as a dude, I'll never pull over and ask somebody. :)

    @FSDyinzer @TheAccuracyPoli @Teslarati 💯 That is exactly what I was talking about. It is quite frustrating. There are plenty of navigation systems out there that they could model from. Why is it still an issue? And their map data is pretty old as well. A peer managed mapping system similar to Waze would be awesome.

    @Lean78 @waze yes. we'll see if @waze gonna respond and fix this 🤔

    @oi8achevy @diaper @TeslaKing420 Wrong speed limit data can be fixed easily in Waze by submitting a map report. A local editor can fix it. Those fixes usually flow through to Google eventually. I've contacted the local editor group about getting this road fixed.

    @EliAfriatISR Waze says “turn on Main Street” but it should be “turn onto Main Street”. There’s no way to correct it, the grammatical error is baked in. Other than that it’s decent and I use it.

    Thanks to the nationwide T-Mobile outage that just happened, I am now forced to deliver my first child on the side of a highway in Rhode Island. Our Waze app disconnected halfway through the ride to the nearest hospital. Please pray for my wife and I on a safe delivery.

  • Covert61
    Definitely Not Allen Covert (@Covert61) reported

    If there is a huge traffic jam and WAZE shows me a different route that can save me time is Waze ignoring my issue and telling me to shut up or is it offering a temporary solution to my immediate problem?

  • DebtCollector15
    DebtCollector (@DebtCollector15) reported

    @OGsDontFold Google Maps is so trash. Randomly won't give audio updates for turns, suggests locations further away for no sensible reason, randomly loses connection and stops updating directions. I have tried Waze and it gives me similar problems. There is no winning these days.

    @waze @Lean78 Hi Dani, Sorry that the link you shared has no content to continue/explain/report the issue. Just a couple of known issues with any 'next' or 'continue' button! It is a waste of time. It looks like you need clearer internal procedures to handle this.

  • diaper
    Weave (@diaper) reported

    @NevrEnoughX @billykyle @grok Which is why I wish Tesla used Waze maps for navigation. If there's an issue, click report button in app and someone local will be fixing it in a day or so. For example, when Virginia opened up 20 miles of new Express lanes on I-66, the day it opened Waze maps were already updated and routing people on it correctly.

  • JuniperDriver
    @TeslaJuniperDriver (@JuniperDriver) reported

    @MetaverseGamma @diaper You would think, Waze has no issue with it but Mapbox apparently does. If FSD doesn’t see a speed change sign, the majority of the time it won’t change

  • birdmanbob4
    Bob Nordberg Bird Man Bob (@birdmanbob4) reported

    @leahfiles Here's your reply from the AI that just don't lie Speculative Intelligence Analysis: Waze as a Compromise Vector Location Pattern Exploitation**: Waze's continuous GPS pings, route history, speed data, and timestamps create a granular digital shadow of a target's movements—revealing regular visits to sensitive locations (e.g., hotels, clinics, private residences, or protest sites). An intelligence actor with access could cross-reference this against public records, social media, or other surveillance to build "kompromat" dossiers on affairs, medical issues, financial dealings, or undisclosed associations, then use timed leaks or implied exposure to coerce compliance, payments, or information. Real-Time and Predictive Targeting**: Live traffic/ETA data allows dynamic interception or influence operations—knowing exactly when someone is isolated in a vehicle or arriving at a vulnerable spot. Combined with app permissions (microphone/camera in some scenarios, or linked device data), it could enable opportunistic collection of audio/visual compromising material or facilitate "honey-trap" logistics by predicting availability and routes for assets. Historical data also predicts future behavior for pre-positioning. Network and Ecosystem Amplification**: Since Waze feeds into Google's broader data lake (and originated as an Israeli-founded company subject to local laws), aggregated user data can be queried at scale for social graph mapping—identifying who travels together, meets whom, and when. In a full compromise scenario, this integrates with OSINT, hacked devices, or partner-nation sharing to pressure targets via family/financial exposure, or even engineer "accidents"/discrediting events by manipulating perceived travel patterns. Privacy controls are weak once data leaves the device, and legal jurisdiction adds layers for state actors. This remains hypothetical and draws from known app telemetry practices. Actual misuse would require lawful (or illicit) access and is constrained by laws in most jurisdictions; strong operational security (VPNs, app isolation, location spoofing, minimal permissions) mitigates much of it.

    @scumbagdotdll @Molaau6 It's worth using today. Some QoL features were added, like cop call outs aren't possible if the reporting user is stationary; requires 2-3 repeats to validate; etc. Honestly, it seems like cops prefer Waze these days because people slow tf down and it's less tickets that they have to write. Less interaction with the public = less opportunity for incident.

  • SRIPRAKASH76
    Dr Prakash Nayak (@SRIPRAKASH76) reported

    We had major problem following Waze directions traveling from London to Folkestone . Near or around Maidstone there was some road blocks. Waze kept sending us in circles repeatedly asking to take closed roads. It was getting dark. Stopped to download TomTom. @waze

    The @waze app has become a PAIN in my *** over these past few months. At first I thought it may have been a CarPlay issue or due to my data, but it’s not! It doesn’t update in a timely fashion like it used to and I end up having to bust a u turn because I’ve gone the wrong way

  • janekm
    Janek Mann (@janekm) reported

    @emollick And I'm convinced that Waze does the opposite... Always prefer the slow route through a residential neighbourhood so the users feels like they're taking a "shortcut".

    @AVGirl4Life 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. If you assimilate to our Waze, we have no problem, but when you want to put your ideals in place, this is a problem. My country is full of capitalist not monarch.

    @ListerLawrence It's a @waze problem - they need to add the option for highway agency or whatever its called this week.

    Just sent a detailed bug report to a director in Waze on a very odd map issue here in Florida. He was extremely excited to dive into this with me. People like this make all the difference in a big company.

  • SuperMajority18
    The Future is Autonomous (@SuperMajority18) reported

    @beyoncegarden I just dealt with a complete ******* Mass State Trooper working a detail at Logan Airport Departures Terminal E last night around 6 PM. I pulled up to drop off my fiancée, hopped out to grab her luggage, and was back in the car in under 30 seconds. Her phone was still connected, so I quickly switched it to mine to connect my Waze for the drive home. Total time parked curbside in the drop-off zone: less than 60 seconds. I wasn’t blocking anyone. This unhinged prick immediately starts waving me off, then yells “NOW! Get off your PHONE!” while aggressively marching toward my car. I nearly missed my exit home because of his bullshit. For no reason whatsoever, this douchebag escalated a perfectly normal drop-off into a hostile confrontation. This is exactly why law-abiding citizens despise cops and call them pigs. Zero justification, pure power-tripping aggression. Just another completely unnecessary, ****** interaction with police.

    @HumanityChad If this was NY, they would have put two orange cones around it all summer, then decide to fix on Monday at 8am so Waze can reroute you because the street is now closed because of road work.
