    @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.

    @starstrutz @MissJilianne Genuinely did not understand what you meant. Tesla and Waymo both use “Waze-like” data through their proprietary alternatives to feed into their own systems so you can see how that would be confusing. They both have something akin to Waze, but on steroids. Since you clarified, I have a question for you. Notice any differences between Waymo’s and Teslas? Like all of the gigantic cameras and sensors plastered on those jaguars? Maybe you’re purely a function over form type of person, but some people like a healthy balance. Those Waymos are clunky and ugly as hell compared to any Tesla. That’s just one example. Also Waymo isn’t as perfect as you’re pretending it is. Their technology makes serious mistakes and there is no one for police to interact with, no one for other motorist to interact with and no one for customers. You gonna call customer service or sit there and wait for the Indian tech support to get connected? This is not a small issue, it’s created plenty of headaches and problems. They also, by legal obligation, have a massive infrastructure of “remote human fleet managers” that people like you pretend don’t exist. They’re heavily geofenced and operate an extremely small footprint in heavily controlled environments. This is nothing compared to Tesla. Teslas are global. Waymo has been developing their autonomous product since 2009. Tesla started FSD in 2016. Don’t make me spell it out for you further. Drop your Elon hate bias and do some research.

    The 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.

    I don't see how Tesla can use its FSD for the Cybercab. My Model Y got lost twice today. I think the problem is that Elon Musk does not want to use Waze. His in-house navigation system is really awful.

    @nexta_tv You don’t have to be a police officer to report a speed camera in Waze. If speeding near your child’s school is a concern, community reporting and visible enforcement often encourage drivers to slow down in school zones.

  • REZGOTBARS
    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.

    @disneyguy12345 @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, and the reporting feature.

    @AfricaisBlack @SAPoliceService @DBE_SA Ey waze waziphoxa kodwa ndoda. Iskhathi sokucabanga ukuzinike nje kodwa? Ngoba phela illegal immigration is also a crime according to the same courts yet you're defending it. Your issue kahle kahle are south Africans or the breaking of the law?

  • SimpletonWill

    @BrunoTaltalian @adamscochran @mrddmia What is the intent to let someone know a speed trap is up ahead? Well it informs them to slow down. Which is actually safer. It creates safety hence Waze isn't shut down. Whereas telling everyone where ICE is is inviting violence.

    The map box issue isn’t the primary issue, it’s the Waze Data API getting shut down, I have no way to obtain that data legally

    @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

    @Am_Blujay I wonder what's the story here. Waze wakhohlakala uRakgadi! 😭 💔 No matter the issue, you just don't do this. Umhlaba ungcole kangaka with men and women ready to grab and abuse these kids. Aowa. Makaboshwe uRakgadi and explain herself. You'll find ukuthi bekabambile. 💔

  • notameadow

    I am not using Waze as I do not drive but when I was, indeed my position and my username was seen. That is now it works and why it is, was, free. I am not saying that the clever method to scraped is, well, clever, but with all the Claudes around it is hardly a problem. What is mind-blowing is the sensationalism of this platform. Have I missed something in the post — I got bored and did not read the whole, realising that it is based on users reporting things — or is it really just about that?

    120th and Dodge under the expressway is still REALLY slow. The ONLY notice from anywhere is a waze report of a major crash. No confirmation from officials

    @North_Resists @0liviajulianna Waze is Chinese and had previous issues. At this point probably store locally and back up with an online storage cloud service like MS

  • SoftwareDev2021
    SoftwareEngineer2021 (@SoftwareDev2021) reported

    @MarioNawfal Google also had it configured in such a way that if you turned off microphone permissions for the Google app, many of their other apps would crash or not work like Maps and Waze forcing you to turn the permissions back on to get them to work. Based on that it appears that it was intentional and not an "oops" moment.

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

    @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!

    If you are having trouble navigating with Google Maps / Waze in the Middle East due to GPS jamming, try Apple Maps. Somehow that’s working.

    Renato Mandić (@reno_peno) reported

    @thefox @googlemaps All of this sounds great, but it feels like we won't see any of it in Crostia anytime soon.. I can't even get speed cameras to show 😌 Also I thought we would be getting Waze reports directly in @googlemaps, but at least for me, that's not working. Immersive nav look awesome though!

    @Google Why don’t you fix the expected driving time? Waze is killing maps in accuracy. Had to stop using maps.

    @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

  • FakeNewsRuse
    A Perture Of Truth (@FakeNewsRuse) reported

    @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.

    @xsteppppppppppp @TheGreeneBJ No, i'm not the only one who had problems with the maps, most of the people i know never switched back once they used waze. Waze's good in updating road's conditions too

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    @LadyCrayMaryKay @neveragainlive1 No, this isn't correct. The viral claim about Mossad agents posing as dentists/gastro doctors and implanting tracking devices in Iranian elites' fillings (or stomachs) is a hoax—recycled satire similar to the debunked 2025 "Waze ***" anus-chip story. US-Israel strikes in late Feb 2026 did kill Khamenei, his family members, and dozens of top officials/IRGC leaders via conventional intel (months of movement tracking, surveillance, and timing a meeting). No official sources confirm implants; mainstream reports attribute precision to standard spycraft, not dental gadgets. Technical issues (battery/signal in a filling) make it implausible too.

    @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
