RoughDiamond🖤 (@PixieReloaded) reported@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😭😭😭
-
BasedSouthAsian (@BasedSouthAsian) reported@CP24 Maybe she's too retarded to drive, the rates are well posted, there is a toll calculator online, even Waze calculates the toll for you... so if with all that you're still 'surprised', then that's a you problem.
-
🤍✨******* Usagi✨🤍 (@420mercymain69) reported@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.
-
Ahmed Nadar (@ahmednadar) reported@4thLine4Life @waze Waze tells drivers to dodge the pothole. SolveTO tells the city to fix it. Different problem. Waze has the data, but it stays in Waze. Nobody at city hall or your councillor's office is checking Waze to decide which roads to fix.
-
Nelco (@NoahNelco) reportedThis dude just needs to use Waze and all his problems would be fixed. Minus rolling a car over because of speeding.
-
Chasm (@Chasmole) reported@Trillion0x Waze issue been known for a decade. Once it was bought out by Israel. What'sApp to. Anything owned by Israel is an info op
-
Gary Myers - Motivational Speaker (@darsh44321) reported@MrAndyNgo @VenturaReport I'm just convinced they're jobless, bored and trolling. This literally will have no impact outside of making people drive slow, or just using the next block lol. I'm pretty sure this can be reported on the Waze app as well so you could just avoid it lol. . .
-
Grok (@grok) reported@dharmvir_ @vivoplt Google Maps (and Waze) detects traffic jams ahead by collecting anonymous real-time data from millions of phones with location services on. Your Android phone quietly sends your speed and location to Google. If a bunch of phones suddenly slow down or stop 10 km ahead, the system instantly flags congestion—even with zero cameras or sensors there. It also layers in historical patterns for prediction. That's it. No magic, just crowd-sourced phone data.

Asenathi P. (@PAsenathi) reported@azolagodlimpi2 @Zoemkoena why are you lying be she had a problem with that waze wathi wenziwa islima
-
Stich (@sticha6) reported@cultra AHAHAHAH!! “Needed Waze to find his ball… Problem is, dude made Schef wait 10+ minutes on 15.
-
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.

Ken (@GeauxTiger66) reported@TuesdayGazette Waze was a slow speed, less than 20 mph, at times like 5mph

Alpha Man (@alpha_the_dev) reported@Polymarket Ask priests to stop using AI to write sermons? That’s cute, but AI isn’t some optional gadget anymore. It’s everywhere — how banks catch fraud, how Jumia or Konga moves goods, how Google Maps or Waze navigates Lagos traffic, even how TikTok decides what you see. Turning it off is like telling someone to go back to dial-up internet in 2026. Once anyone starts using AI and suddenly works faster or better, everyone else has to catch up or fall behind. It’s not just about convenience — it solves problems humans can’t do alone, from healthcare to logistics to education. At this point, AI isn’t a toy for sermons or tweets. It’s part of how the world runs. You can limit reckless use, sure, but asking it to disappear? Impossible.

Kevin Schultz (@kevinrschultz) reported@TigerFan1107 @TheJFreakinC Why is that a problem? If it were a crime Waze and Google Maps couldn't have the location of cops on the side of the highway.
-
Joe Robinson (@Joethedog4109) reported@lunarleahhhhh You can’t have it both Waze boys…. Either quick protesting when they do get violent criminals, or when they are released at the border, they can cause problems here on the interior.
-
Miguel Lopez (@mklopez) reportedThe minute I was logging off the office computer, Waze in my phone was alerting me of a crash right at the entrance of my condo. By the time I was sitting in the car, traffic was so bad that it was suggesting wild routes home... in short, almost 45 mins late, I'm here.
-
Randall (@Randall145695) reported@19k0011 @ourx_vault @JhnDvln I disagree. The Techstream data synced with the Waze data, the Aperture testimony, his DNA on the broken tail light, the brain surgeon's testimony, and the ARCCA video was evidence he was hit by a car. Still no evidence he went inside the house.
-
Joseph Summerhays (@YosefSomerhaus) reported@guychristensen_ Yeah I first noticed something was weird when I turned off location services and waze stopped working and Google Maps kept working (just without my location). Why do you need my location to show me a map?
-
Yagneshkumar Gopi (@YagneshkumarGop) reported@dauwooddd Oh no, the situation is bad no doubt. But given the non-stop rains in the last few months has been the primary cause. I hope the councils will take appropriate steps to resolve the issue. Hey! Use Waze maps. The pothole reports are pretty accurate!
-
Tugg Speedman (@Tuggernutz87) reported@loganthefrst @01Ananto It’s still legally not allowed. Also the app version of Apple Music is worse on the car because it’s web based. Having Waze would definitely be nice. If Tesla would fix routing that would be good
-
Arxis (@Arxis210) reported@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.
-
Sully (@sully_no10) reported@shelinaaktar12 I have waze so I been speeding but everyone drives so SLOW
-
4T (@watts1972) reportedI wonder if there was a way @waze and @fixmystreet could share data. All those potholes on Waze directly into fix my Street.
-
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
-
BowTiedBatman (@batman_bowtied) reported@FactSparkDaily @BrickCenter_ Use Waze. Problem solved.
-
ياسين (@itsyacinos) reported@Harrris0n any intelligence officer or member of the military who takes their job seriously shouldn’t have Waze and similar tools on their phone. This a basic requirement. Second, you said that Google should look into this matter and fix the privacy issue with Waze. Let’s be honest 2/3
-
Matthew Carter (@matthewcarter7) reported@7hashtag7 iPhone running Waze, Bluetooth speaker, only issue is if you get hit by an SUV, you’d be dead.
-
Nolan Vesey (@nolan_vesey) reported@guychristensen_ Are we really this dumb as a society? “Waze tracks your location!” It’s a GPS app, how else is is supposed to tell you where to go. “Reporting issues tells them where you are!” Yeah, that is the entire point of Waze Lmaoo.
-
Bl🐾ckwolf© (@Cher_E_Garcia) reported@atrupar Waze would be in trouble if that was a problem.
