-
Njoroge (@Joe_AlexN) reported@NdemoKelvin I agree, the problem is that those clowns are always on the move. It's like they're also using Waze bana. You report them, they move afew kilometers ahead.
-
Brittney🥪 (@kurizmatik) reported@JEllulz I liked when I was working in Los Angeles and Waze introduced the no unprotected left hand turns feature.
-
Tugg Speedman (@Tuggernutz87) reported@teslaloosa It’s more so a route planner issue. It would make FSD infinitely better if they use something like google or waze for routing.
-
KRISTIN KAY (@benchslappedtv) reported@Dan_Donovan_17 @HoldenMaur50368 I never said Waze had its own GPS satellites. Everyone knows Waze uses the iPhone’s GPS/location services. That was never the issue. What Green was talking about was the timestamps and how different phone artifacts and app data lined up against each other. That is a normal digital forensics issue. Different apps and datasets can have different timing offsets and logging behaviors. That is what he was referring to!

AnonyMassLawyer (@anonymasslawyer) reported@Suzybeau1 @Martine05885145 She got within WiFi range at 12:36:39. Waze records very precise GPS data (error radius less than 5m) with accurate timestamps. From the time Waze was activated (12:20) to when then arrived at 34 Fairview (12:24:38) we have incredibly precise time/location data for the SUV

Tom Karren - Agent Operator. (@tomkarren) reportedFSD needs some systemwide Waze type features. Road construction is one of the biggest issues with navigation.
-
Orvill Samanta (@orvilldesign) reportedWhy is there no Waze for golf courses. Every weekend someone drives out to a course that has punched greens or patchy fairways and finds out when they get there. That information exists. Other golfers who played there that morning know it. It just goes nowhere. TurfTracker is the app that changes that. Crowdsourced conditions, one tap to report when you arrive, rewards for contributing. Know the condition before you commit to the round. This is the iOS concept I have been working on.

Lean (@Lean78) reported@zeerusli @waze Same problem!!
-
Salvador Chavarria (@schavarriaTexas) reported@htsfhickey Fred - real life example…google maps is actually now really bad at optimizing routes. Really bad…switched to waze which is also owned by google as you know but still seems to be working fine
-
N (@Celatus3) reported@SecDuffy I’m so infuriated with congestion pricing! It feels so violating between Waze sending you through zone when you can easily avoid it to feeling completely exploited! It’s not even worth working after having to pay all this. And I’m not taking train after incident I had!
-
zeerusli (@zeerusli) reported@waze Wait your quick action to fix this. Most of users experiencing the same. So it should be general issue now. No need to be hassled submiting here and there.
-
optimistic man (@_Misandaa) reported@msiziworld @Mr30C I never had a problem with Waze. Ever. Apple is worse worse
-
baseball enjoyer 3000 (@TheNotoriousHRT) reportedalso has anyone else been having problems with Google and Waze on iPhone lately?? it feels like nothing loads. genuinely feel conspiratorial. I can have like two or three bars of 5G and it's just slow as ****. I mean NEVER loads.
-
Anele Simelane (@AneleCebekulu) reportedStill can’t believe that they water people hit an electric cable that the electricity people have to fix and we’re going on 48hrs of no power in Bryanston 😭 Yoh City of Johannesburg waze wasenza!
-
Skullaz-san🇯🇲 (@xSkullaz) reportedListen me no one force yall mofos to use waze!! If you have a issue report it but you better be respectful cause I am not short of a sym and I will definitely ignore your report !! Think it tek boy fi sit up at nights fix **** so people routes while using waze can be better???
-
Nthambe (@Nthambemasera) reported@msiziworld Waze has no problem thre settings by the user are a problm
-
caroline ౨ৎ (@MIN0RLYSTUCK) reportedHEY @waze IM GOING TO CRASH MY CAR WITHOUT THE JONAS BROTHERS GIVING ME DIRECTIONS
-
John_Hawkins (@JohnHawkin71262) reported@ClimateWarrior7 I just drive at normal speeds and slow down for the cameras. Use Waze and even alerts you to police mobile cameras. Never any points.
-
Jason Wallace (@TragedyCalls) reported@nursedanakay Surely it cannot be beyond the wit of man to map where they are. Certainly telematics should be telling the car something's not right in the same place every day. I have a similar issue on my route and @waze. 9 speed humps which variously appear and disappear .

DuVious🔜 ASC? (@DewVious) reported@KetoOrkyy If you feel like you're awake but you're in a numb state, pull over and get some rest immediately. Highway Hypnosis is REAL and will **** you up. Move your head, move your eyes, park in a nice/reputable town somewhere during daytime and take a little 15 minute walk. If you don't need to be at a place at a specific amount of time, take it slow. NEVER go more than 10 (15 is okay if there's a backlog of people behind you) over when you're on the 10. Drink fluids, don't do too many energy based drinks. They'll give you a good boost but then you'll crash. NO DRIVING FOR MORE THAN 8 HOURS IN A DAY; also limit the amount of time you're driving if you've been up for 12 hours beforehand. Bit of an iffy one, but I never pick up hitch-hikers unless they look like they're on the brink of heat-stroke. Use Waze or Google Maps to know where police are, or if there's an accident ahead, etc. Bring items that you can use to repair your vehicle, duct tape, fix-a-flat, along with what Alexander Dross said in the replies. i think thats all i can think of rn

Bonf1re¹ (@bon_macharia) reported@Kimuzi_ @xysist @indiiazi Hadi huku nowadays ata google imenishida kutumia it's too slow and very inaccurate compared to waze
-
Ian Bennetts (@IanBennettsAUS) reported@freeloader2021 Is the problem FSD the Driver or FSD the Navigator. I think map data needs lanes selection like waze
-
SoLindo Mahlangu (@_XolaniMahlangu) reported@BamUyatandwa @Psyfo_05 @Ongavinjelwa Waze wazenza I Advocate yakhe.All the guy was pointing out is that she must really be hurt by The OP new kit that she post about this so early in the morning.I doesn't matter if she is up working or not the point still stands though.
-
AJJS (@AJJCDA) reported@JayGenXer When using Waze on the 410, it actually comes up on the screen that the area has a high crash history. I hate driving anywhere near Brampton & try to avoid it.
-
Ahmedkhan (@Ahmed___khaan) reported@elormkdaniel Because your phone is basically a tiny traffic sensor. Google Maps doesn’t “see” traffic, it measures behavior. Thousands of phones on the same road continuously send anonymized GPS location and speed data. The system groups these signals by road segments and compares current speeds with historical patterns. When vehicles suddenly slow down, like from 60 km/h to 10 km/h, it flags congestion and turns the road red in real time. Then comes Waze. After Google acquired it, the real power was in combining data, not merging apps. Waze users actively report accidents, police, closures, and hazards, and that information flows directly into Google Maps. In return, Google’s massive data improves Waze’s routing and traffic predictions. So even if you never open Google Maps, your phone can still be contributing to traffic detection. You’re not just using the map. You are the map.

🔥 (@ArtTed___4) reported@PieFaceMark I’ve been working in London these last few weeks and been beating Waze and google maps every time going home . Using the #knowledge 👌🏽

bappingjump D. Oden❤️💙 (@bappingjump) reported@Lean78 @waze No me too since an update. Waiting for a fix

Property and Cars kings (@CarandProperty) reported@Julius_S_Malema @NgizweMchunnu Working for you is real colonisation. Imagine wasting all the time for your lawyer just for and apology? Chief use your resources very waze. How does and apologise benefit the ground flow of Eff? Yeah @FloydShivambu really was running the retail store for you.
-
LT (@LtMunst) reported@TeslaKing420 A simple fix if Tesla would just bite the bullet and license Waze.

Craig Jones (@CraigJones62051) reported@BuckeyeEmpire Waze gives you at least half a mile to slow to 73 and look for the *******. Use it.
