Mavu. (@khuliso_Neels) reported@GamingNaRoli I don’t even have Waze bro 😭😭, im not used to having such kind of problems

Michael Hernandez (@capturehappy) reportedDid you know navigation apps can actually make traffic worse? 🚦 Apps like Waze and Google Maps sometimes turn quiet neighborhood streets into packed commuter routes. Here’s why. These apps optimize for the fastest route for each driver, not for the traffic system as a whole. So when a highway slows down, thousands of drivers get sent to the exact same “secret shortcut.” What used to be a local trick suddenly becomes a new traffic jam. It’s like everyone discovering the same hidden restaurant at once. The line gets long. Service slows. The secret stops working. That’s why some cities are now blocking cut-through traffic in residential neighborhoods. Navigation apps can save you time. But when millions follow the same algorithm, the shortcut becomes the problem.

EZ Street Asphalt (@EZSTREETASPHALT) reportedBig step forward from @Waymo and @waze using technology to identify potholes faster. But identifying the problem has never been the hardest part. The real challenge is fixing it—quickly, safely, and without disruption. That’s where EZ Street® Ambient® Asphalt comes in. • Works in water • Ready for traffic immediately • No heat, no plant, no waiting Smarter roads don’t just detect issues. They solve them.

Non-Linear (@nonlinear_james) reported@HermanBovens @Teslarati Tesla uses Google Maps which uses Waze community edits on it. Tesla throwing out google maps probably isn't in the cards. Maybe using Tesla's own hyper accurate maps as overlays to Google, and maybe FSD could contribute road closures etc. (and use them from Waze to fix some stuff I've recently scene!)

ame-chan (@ame_fan__) reportedmore driving soon, i like driving manual cars... and if waze isn't on i can go a bit above the limit for new drivers... so nice... only problem: headache :(
-
Dr. Anton Chuvakin (@anton_chuvakin) reported@waze you are still routing to closed (due to snow) routes such as CA 88 and CA 89, with machine readable information on closure available. Please fix
-
HITMONREZ (@REZGOTBARS) reported@deefinewhine Don’t use Waze. The problem you complaining about not gonna change because we drive fast in every lane but the left which causes accidents every morning. In reality most people drive like *******, if we just remove the speed limit like the south it will be better.
-
Bob Dore (@BobDore) reported@waze has taken me out of a little jam and put me in a solid major problem. Load id ctap!
-
Pepe Mtz. (@PpKarOn) reported@killedbygoogle I dont see Google addressing the fundamental issue that is making me using waze, so i dont think so, at least not for the moment
-
Nic Cruz Patane (@niccruzpatane) reportedThe biggest problem with CarPlay is enabling it to synchronize with Tesla FSD. If you input a destination in FSD using Tesla’s native navigation system, it isn’t going to match what you see in Apple Maps, Waze, or Google Maps. Integration is a lot more complicated than it seems.

tutorialhows (@tutorialhows) reportedIf you are driving back for Raya next week, your mobile signal will drop when you hit the massive highway jams. Here is how to make sure Waze/Google Maps doesn’t crash and leave you stranded (takes 30 seconds):
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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.

Matthew Carter (@matthewcarter7) reported@7hashtag7 iPhone running Waze, Bluetooth speaker, only issue is if you get hit by an SUV, you’d be dead.
-
Thato (@ChunksOfMe) reported@LKubone @Tealmooss I'm also correcting the part where you said she wanted no5 in this particular Season she didn't.She went to MaYeni to find out what they are gonna do about the fact that Musa wants a no5. Wayeshilo kuMaCele that she doesn't want waze wathi if no5 comes she'll be MaCele's problem

⭐️STARGUY (@starguy_1) reported@RippleXrpie Why my speed cemeta alert in Waze not working
-
optimistic man (@_Misandaa) reported@msiziworld @Mr30C I never had a problem with Waze. Ever. Apple is worse worse
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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.

John Jaani Janardan (@Ex_secular786) reported@bornauthority Fitness certificate is granted by central authorities. If it comes to this then please remember pooja khedkar case, Waze, Anil Deshmukh etc. fix your personal problems then wonder about others
-
pixydust (@pixydus41606040) reported@IsraMum @waze i stopped driving i have chronic back problem and i am not in israel ; i would have been if it were not for my back
-
THE IMPLEMENTOR (@KaraniTroy) reported@GearstoGoals Just download Waze and your problems are sorted
-
Baylee (@bb50028) reported@Flighty @ALewin Would be cool if it is like Waze, were we can report ourselves the wait times or slow lines
-
DestroyerGawd (@Mdoo_007) reported@msiziworld Waze is a community app.. it constantly needs people/users to update on any issues on a particular route… if no one does anything.. it’s simply useless!
-
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.
-
Nelco (@NoahNelco) reportedThis dude just needs to use Waze and all his problems would be fixed. Minus rolling a car over because of speeding.
-
Sully (@sully_no10) reported@shelinaaktar12 I have waze so I been speeding but everyone drives so SLOW
-
A War (@AWar1586398) reported@Teslarati I really want navigational integration with Waze and I want FSD to be Waze-aware. Meaning I want it to slow down a bit if there are known police ahead. It’s all there, it just needs integration.
-
Antiquated 📛Rogue (@ontologyofRouge) reported@ItsBig_Earl @ReverendSpeck @BCLAW Again, you’re trying to predict injuries just go with the actual data that we have the car data, the phone data, and the Waze data. He had no dog bites. There were no dog DNA there was no dog hair, dogs have lower teeth. The scratches matched the broken tail light.
-
Your Last 5 Merchant!!!! (@draggingortrump) reported@MusingsofAwe What can I use as an alternative to Google Maps? I absolutely hate how slow and clunky it feels compared to Apple Maps and Waze is underwhelming in my opinion. I've been using Google Wallet for a month now and love it.
-
AMPed UP (@DoublepPradhan) reported@TexasTSLA @robotaxi This is what we can not have. Why? Those people will now bad mouth Tesla saying they are slow , can’t trust them, etc. Always assume right on red is allowed unless specified otherwise!! Or have Navi data accurate like Waze.
-
TSLAnPA (@TSLAnPA) reported@vad3rt3sla Like Waze… It would also be nice if there is traffic to know the reason: car crash, construction, etc…
