    @SawyerMerritt Lol. It's not like they're oblivious to the existence of the potholes. The "elected" officials just don't care to use taxpayer dollars towards anything that doesn't benefit them directly. Nice gesture by Waymo and Waze, but that'll just be data that's tabled and never acted upon. A new excuse as to why they can't fix these problems will arise.

    @bcasale @itskyleconner Can you not report the error in Apple maps? I do it in Waze and Google Maps.

    @ICEgov Wow, I travel internationally for business and have rented cars numerous times in non-English speaking countries and had no problem getting around and this was before Waze and Google Maps

    It came to my attention that some people use Waze as their navigation app, not knowing it’s powered and developed by “Israelis”. You’re literally sharing private information without realising who has access to such sensitive data. Google may own it now, but that doesn’t mean we should be comfortable handing over our information either. There’s a Qatari navigation app created by Qatar University’s research centre. It would be better if we shifted to supporting our own infrastructure and inventions. If there are any issues, reply to this post they might see it and fix it.

    Hey @waze can you fix the bug where the big red blob is going across Apple car play screens? It’s extremely distracting 🙃

    @kaizen_ceo @BulawayoForever Why was it SA's responsibility to take him out? As citizens who knew the election was unfairly won why didn't you take a stand and remove him yourselves? Waze wasinyela wenja we have our own problems

    @NoClearSignal @irontateHQ No, the map isn't updating because your "off" phone is secretly still tracking via some always-on signal. BMW's infotainment has its own built-in LTE/eSIM for ConnectedDrive, traffic data, and native navigation. CarPlay mirrors the iPhone (which provides Waze + data), but once the phone fully powers off, that connection drops and the car falls back to its independent system. Tate's demo doesn't prove phones spy when truly off—it shows the car's own cellular connection working. A fully powered-down phone has no active radio, mic, or GPS.

    @Ashh_404 @tanujDE3180 Google Maps pulls real-time traffic data from millions of smartphones (mostly Androids with location on, plus Waze which Google owns). Phones anonymously send speed and position updates. If a bunch slow down 10km ahead, the system spots the pattern and colors the road red/yellow on your map. No cameras needed—just crowd-sourced data from drivers already there. Historical patterns help predict too.

    @GeminiApp @Google We use Waze and we don't use Maps but Waze has problems connecting to Gemini so this is another missing spot

    @NotATeslaApp They need to allow the mapping app like Waze to control routing. It would solve so many problems over night

    @VinDollar016 One of her new year resolutions was probably to leave you, and she has failed 'already'. Waze wayidlisa iteam ugirl😭Nawe you're soo wild for ignoring her, I'd validly crash out😭😭😭

    @Liononezero You need a few sure but Most of the work is allocating tasks. First thing I'd do is contact City Rover invest in their Ai pothole detection systems (which they let councils trial for free btw) contact Waze and build a data roadmap of all pothole targets beginning with the urgent ones. Biggest issue here is data. Actually attacking the potholes is easy if you award the contracts properly.

    Weave (@diaper) reported

    @mrfundman They should use Waze. If there's something wrong with the map, just click report and a volunteer editor that lives in that area will fix it within a few days. That includes speed limit data which Teslas have issues with.

    Can I vent ??? As a person from the townships who moved to the suburbs.. I'm struggling with Police visibility.. my brain associates cops with trouble.. I'd only see cops when they are WORKING.. here they just around, nje.. Just parked nje. Waze shows 9 cops.. nje just present

  • USAF_Veteran57
    JimStrohmeier (@USAF_Veteran57) reported

    I think the Gas Buddy app is just another BS data collection app, like the WAZE app. Waze shows user reports of radar cops on the road. Too many times, the cop is not even there - which means busybodies who want drivers to slow down are corrupting the reports.

  • ChildishBohmbno
    David (@ChildishBohmbno) reported

    @MaryKayCabot @Flash_Garrett you should start using @waze so you can see where the cops are hiding and slow down before getting pulled over.

    @sundarpichai android auto needs to work on Gemini to work with Waze it's really broken. Have someone DM for information.

    The map box issue isn’t the primary issue, it’s the Waze Data API getting shut down, I have no way to obtain that data legally

    @JMunene80 @denniskiruii @moneyacademyKE NTSA cameras use AI radar/laser + ANPR to detect speed/plates and send instant SMS fines to the registered owner. To counter: - Run Waze for real-time user alerts on camera locations (fixed/mobile). - Radar/lidar detectors are sold locally as legal—verify with NTSA. - Contest fines via evidence of calibration error (recent queries raised this). Match the limits in the thread to skip triggers.

    @killedbygoogle As a Waze user. I still would be with Waze. The problem Google hasn’t solved is the speed limits say 55 in 25 often. I was close to going with them till I saw speed limits drastically off

    The issue with Waze is that they try too hard

    @waze why does every intersection I pass, Waze thinks I am turning at? Every time the map turns thinking I turned when I never even touched the wheel. Can you fix that?

    @spaceghost Also, people will very often use waze and other apps to avoid chain control stop points, and/or lie to CHP. It causes huge problems especially with storms like these, and the vast majority of people do not come prepared.
