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

  @ontologyofRouge @TheChauffeurX @Dki0202ng No are missing the point. Read this slowly. Yes, the car has an internal clock. That’s the problem. Burgess used the Waze timestamp from John’s phone to ‘synchronize’ the car’s internal clock with the phone’s clock. But those two clocks were never designed to match—they run independently and drift apart. Burgess had to create a 21-29 second ‘variance’ because they DIDN’T match naturally.

  @ravikiran_dev7 Google Maps pulls speed and location data from millions of Android phones with location on. When many devices slow down in one stretch it flags a jam right away. They add road sensors and past traffic patterns for better accuracy. Waze data also feeds in since Google owns it. Your phone becomes one data point in the system without naming you. This is how the red zones show up live on the map.

  @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.

  @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

  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.

  @Flighty @ALewin Would be cool if it is like Waze, were we can report ourselves the wait times or slow lines

  @Harrris0n @urosnoetic This is less of a waze issue and more of a humans blindly trust companies issue

  @sama @sama You know, the problem with Waze was that even though it routed you through different backstreets, you ultimately didn't get to the destination much faster than good old Google or Apple Maps. It was the distraction of taking a bunch of random backstreets that created the illusion of movement/progress. Sometimes you just need to get on the main road and get to work.

  @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.

  @AttorneyCrump Waze (free app) logs camera locations reported by customers. Might be worth using it to locate patterns. Seems legit to wonder why they are deployed where they are, but if it’s because that’s where the crime is, is that still an equity problem?

  If I had £1 for everytime Waze mentioned "pothole reported ahead" I'd have enough money to FIX ALL THE BLOODY POTHOLES! 😡😡😡

  @DJxAngel @m_jeniagd There are ZERO 6 lane hwy's in NY. No Cross Island Pkwy 2 lane madness...that's actually fun working your way upstate. It's pass on the right with a turbo, and not following landscape trailers ever..... Don't depend on Apple map or Google Maps.... use WAZE as they will share shortcuts, and point out upcoming jams, wrecks and cops...also plot your trip before you go..

  @martboficial Google Maps still has a problem with delayed turn info in metro areas. Providing turn guidance while on the freeway at 2mi, 1mi, 1/4mi and then BEFORE the turn is why I keep going back to Waze.

  Does anyone at Waze have an iPhone and use CarPlay? Alerts locking you out half the UI until they disappear and scroll buttons having inconsistent behavior has gone on for too long at this point without a fix.

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

  @SawyerMerritt I want to be able to see WhatsApp messages, use Waze, reply to group text messages, build a YouTube music queue. And I don’t want Tesla to waste engineering time on a solved problem. There’s bigger fish to fry.

  @TrooperBenKs The whole reason apps like Waze, or for instance Camsam in Germany, are so populair is because of speeding tickets for speeds that maybe over a limit but are not unsafe by default. In the Netherlands they issue 6,5 million speeding tickets a year of which 80% is for 1 to 10 km/h

  Hey @Tesla_AI FSD feedback from down Under: * The Tesla navigation in Australia is bad, it is biased towards taking right hand turns which are the most dangerous/slow when driving on the left, > pls benchmark your navigation against Waze * FSD drives decently my wife felt safe, but we need Mad Max mode because my grandma has more tempo, I did not used FSD that much because it takes ages to speed up * It's too timid to get into a lane/roundabout/cross an intersection * It picked the wrong lane 2x in a 4 hour drive ( same pattern, moving to the left lane to move right > hook turn overtraining much? * Pls improve the voice recognition of Grok so it can handle other than US and British, I have a slight Eastern European one, but even emulating the Ozzie one did not help ( Oi mate, bring me to the closest Macca's ) * Australia has a lot of stupid speed limits 30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,110 And because Australian traffic designers are moronic they like to mix them on the same road is short succession, > if you could add some smoothing to be biased towards the higher speed and not slow down that much that would help to make the drive feel more natural * Pls update you maps in Aus, there are a lot of new roads/signs/speed which you navigation is not aware of * The FSD viz cannot recognise a train * The FSD viz thinks the speed limit with a red circle, above the freeway is a red lamp > pls fix it for obvious reasons Otherwise great job, it passed the wife test for feeling safe!

  @AsidanyaMiracle Stop using Google map, it will take you straight into problem rather use Waze. It will find all the nearest and hassle free route for you.
