    @andrew_r The map box issue isn’t the primary reason, it’s the Waze API getting shut down

    @DeoWatti @krisdyer_1 @marisekjg If I'd known how nasty it was, I'd have passed Anderson side. Atp, it looked like the usual after school Shoppes of Maraval shenanigans. Is only when I was stuck in traffic heading to Champs Elysees and Waze told me Morne Coco would be quicker that I realised I was in trouble.

    more 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 :(

  • e_considine
    The Sentient Dog Group (@e_considine) reported

    @The_Suburbanist I would say the obvious problem with your original idea is coordination. How do you coordinate 'paying people' not to drive into an area to limit specific traffic jams? If Waze offered that I suspect some people would try to make money by driving into rush hour traffic.

    @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

    @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.

  • OptimusUpRyan69

    @vad3rt3sla they just need to ingest that data from waze and google maps to slow down. and then export that data out too (if they want to share)

  • DoublepPradhan
    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.

  • ENTP_Innovator
    Matthew Stevenson (@ENTP_Innovator) reported

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

  • SlingerAuto
    Slinger Auto Zone LLC (@SlingerAuto) reported

    @saswat101 @waze Imagine this: instead of just a "pothole ahead" alert, the app provides exact GPS coordinates and dimensional photos so crews know exactly what they’re dealing with before they even arrive. Even better? It can use traffic data to pinpoint the absolute best time to fix them—when traffic is at its lowest—to minimize the headache for everyone. This is the kind of data-driven city tech we need.

    @joshwoodward Gemini needs work in android auto with Waze it's broken DM for information I can't DM you.

  • undercoveraggie
    Trevor Knight (@undercoveraggie) reported

    I thought my Waze app was broken after repeating “pothole reported ahead” every 5 seconds. Then I just realized I’m driving through Tennessee.

  • ICommunityNote
    Jonathan Mills (@ICommunityNote) reported

    @DillonLoomis @butala_aryan Can they just partner with Waze and fix everything overnight? That would be good.

  • SkylarDarkfox
    Skylar Darkfox (@SkylarDarkfox) reported

    @MatthewCappucci We have navigation apps, and we have weather apps. Why not bring them together? Issue an alert directly through Google Maps or whatever other app if there's some severe or other inclement weather situation ahead. Waze does this to a certain extent with fog and flooding...

    @LVMPD Want to slow people down? Download waze and just report yourselves as you drive around.

  • capturehappy
    Michael Hernandez (@capturehappy) reported

    Did 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.

    @Farmerboynate @BenMFreeman And if you have such a problem with Jews and Israel, stop using all the things that our 0.2% of the world population has developed & makes. Cellphones, voip, waze, many medicines, etc.

  • EZSTREETASPHALT
    EZ Street Asphalt (@EZSTREETASPHALT) reported

    Big 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.

    @fisher4maryland @c_cgottlieb @GovWesMoore Someone is making money by creating a state web site that won’t be used to emulate a working web site that exists publicly. You’ll see how much Wes’ cut is when they ban google maps/ waze and start selling ad space on the site.

    @rrouccc @DeanCoombes Some do activate. You can find plenty of fines under 79mph if you search for a couple of minutes. Cameras also don't flash during the day. Use Waze and just slow down a bit.

  • notsure390
    NotSure (@notsure390) reported

    @chutneylife I find the FSD drives better than I do, but that the navigation system sometimes fails. The car takes the wrong turn or gets lost. That is confusing, since Waze and others solved the navigation issue years ago.

  • T00tbeer
    C (@T00tbeer) reported

    Might switch from Apple to this secure phone and then try to fix this **** iPhone 11 and use it for Spotify in my car or Waze or whatever I need, and then use this new phone for my P2P communication. Cause Ive heard some WEIRD things about electronics lately.

  • BlahajStealer
    BlahajStealer (@BlahajStealer) reported

    @iHateApplee @appltrack lmao just saying its the norm, surprised apple hasnt started sooner. Free platforms usually end up with ads sooner or later. i brought up the biggest map example but waze also has ads, im not sure why you have a problem with apple when they do something but anyone else is a saint

    @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.

    @LoftyGoals_ My problem is that umfazi promised to do it but delayed waze wasweleka and now that she's nomore and kusele abantwana nabo a ayaziyo lendaba but ngoku bayenza eyam. Iyadika lento because uhlupha mna.

    @Dan_Donovan_17 @factsdontlie10 I believe the Waze time issue was discussed in first trial.

  • Tuggernutz87

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

  • KenMCharles
    Kenneth Charles (@KenMCharles) reported

    @Teslarati Honestly, not a fan of Waze. Used it on a rental w/Android Auto(AA) and got fed up w/the stale traffic reports and AA not always working when I started the car so I could drive to a destination where I needed directions.

    @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
