@SandDadSF @jessjenk That’s complex, cross county traffic, lack of freeways, the school lottery, apps like waze, lack of school busses feeds into all this. I would not lay it at the feet of any one factor like muni or slow streets. Also many people here have a suburban drive everywhere mentality.

I like that waze asks you if there’s still a car that’s broken down or cops or whatever as you drive passed. I hope you guys answer truthfully 🥺

@AdelePrince Waze, which is usually used for people to find ratruns, is now being used to share petrol stations with fuel. Just exacerbates the problem, people chasing around London trying to find fuel.

@leovallet You know what? I started using it for car navigation instead of Waze. I have been getting wrong arrival times with Waze, too many errors. One question: how often roads and other infos are updated?

The thing that cracks me up about using WAZE in DC is our definition of “minor crash.” Just saw where a car had gone airborne and landed on a guardrail on the Capital Beltway. 6 police and 2 fire trucks. WAZE is all “Minor Crash ahead!”

Experiment done. Waze: forecasted arrival 8:00. Actual 8:10 Apple Maps: forecasted arrival 8:06. Actual 8.06. Waze did this for a few days now, 10 minutes error on average on a 15-20 minutes trip. Apple Maps usually very accurate. What’s happening?

Good thing I check waze, was bout to jump on a406 and there's a protest going on. Add that to the fuel problem. Long

Tapping an street address in Apple Mail took me to Apple Maps as expected. I closed both apps and opened @waze for another use and it instantly suggested the address I had looked up. #privacy issue?

For those curious, the Major Crash being reported on I-5 South via Waze is not us.

@justinwnewton I don't think the presence of a sidewalk alone is sufficient for pedestrian safety, but I agree it shouldn't be exclusionary to outsiders. It should be designed to slow down all cars enough that Waze won't recommend it as improving over other routes.

Google/Waze/etc and councils really should hook up more tightly on this sort of thing. I'm not even sure if the software handles things like no-traffic-zones on only particular periods of the day, but it should, it isn't a hard software problem IMO.

@Kidfears99 Lol, houston Waze loves not even mentioning a crash unless someone dies. Granted, we are famous for driving like aggressive psychos.

Anyone else having any weird issues with @waze via CarPlay sonde updating to ios15? Many times when I tap to then search or when the AI reports something to me it causes the system volume on the car to jump up higher than where I have things set….

I started to find alternatives for Google apps on my android device. replaced Google podcasts with pocket quite great app and Google maps with waze yet didn't test it. why? Google apps are either slow and not responsive or crashes all the time even though I've updated them.

@googlemaps your app is messing with the function of my keyboard when maps is running in the background. PLEASE fix this. I'm tired of using @waze ...sorry

@hackney_cycling @StokeyLTN I believe @hackneycouncil notified Google, Waze, etc in advance so the changes would be reflected straight away. Just one of the things we learned from the experimental traffic orders to address teething problems :)

@SFGreat_America for some reason @waze is directing people to cut through the employee parking area, first time visitors might not catch this- you should contact WAZE to fix this issue

@WazeUK how should users report problems? Example Waze recommending uk ferry routes that don't exist.

@erica_tirr Waze popped up yesterday asking me to feedback on how the petrol station was, so presume they're doing it. Although no issues in Cumbria this week! Worse in Manc.

"but won't people just slow down when they're in range of the camera?" Yeah. Just like they do with cops. Waze tells me where every cop is, and radar detectors have existed forever. And also people still get tickets. You could also use drones if you really want to switch it up
