casungo (@casungo) reported@ardeiusmaleus @catgirlprostate np! if you want to see how they mapped it you can go to the Waze Map Editor, login, and if you go near a part of the map not part of your current environment it will prompt you to switch. eventually I think they will merge everything but idk

crazy people out there (@ron_doingstuff) reported@congressdj @Spencer10438140 I was trying to get waze working, so at least it would alert me. I was having issues with waze bluetooth talking over the tesla audio. I could not hear both at the same time. Grok said there was some browser version of tesla waze. Too busy to figure this out so far :)

Punished Sneed (@RacismFan45) reported@faustianwigger Reporting a crash on waze after i showed a cyclist the error of his ways (a hit and run).

Madí (@madi_ayazbay) reported@Mike_the_Elder @NotATeslaApp I totally agree, only problem in some countries like Kazakhstan we do not have turn by turk by tesla at all. I have no idea why. But via apple carplay : waze, google maps, 2gis, maps, yandex maps all work! I wish tesla would just add all the countries as turn by turn! I do not think technically is so difficult.

Jackson (@phillygeordie) reported@Don312A @ardeiusmaleus @catgirlprostate How is it “extreme levels of favoritism” when other maps show the land as Israel and Waze doesn’t? I don’t really see the problem?

Tony Velasco (@Tesla_PNW) reported@PhasedGravField @mikepat711 It's a big revenue earner here, along with excessive speed on hwy 500, where FSD has no probable going 15 or more over in Standard, Hurry, or Mad Max. The cops absolutely camp almost every morning along hwy 500 in se eral hidden locations in an area where traffic regularly goes ten to fifteen over and just rack up car after car. I have Waze running, so know when they are setup in those hidden spots, and make sure to drop to chill at least a mile before I get to that area when they are there to give FSD time to slow down, since it is often a sluggard about slowing down to new speeds when you change profiles. It will do it, but not always quickly.

NancyH (@NancyH_60) reported@gotrice2024 20 minutes is brutal—I’ve been stuck nearly that long on a slow freight crawl with no U-turn option. Best move is to use Maps/Waze for detours on known problem crossings and always treat malfunctioning gates as active: better late than risking it. What’s your usual route?

Ruth Victoria Lerner (@lerner88) reported@yvonneridley @sainsburys Just asking have you disposed of your mobile or computer - hope you haven’t got a health problems check where the medicines come from - don’t fly anywhere just in case the navigation unit is provided by Israel - don’t use Waze same reason - Google Meta Intel Microsoft and Apple!!

Ahmedkhan (@Ahmed___khaan) reportedBecause 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.

Edgars Zīverts (@edziverts) reported@ChinaEV_Eng_Lif Try coming to Eastern Europe; Tesla cannot fix its maps for 2+ years. Waze really is the gold standard; too bad there is no native app.

JaderReloaded (@jader_reloaded) reported@DevinOlsenn You don’t need Waze. Drive the speed limit and problem solved

Brusimm.com (@Brusimm) reportedDear #Waze, wtf is your problem today, telling me to take the long way home. The way I've never taken, while my usual, shorter route was just fine??? I remember when waze was the better option. And now... ? SMH.

TruthOverBS (@TeamFUKR) reported@JohnWilliamFau2 @DixieNormu95224 @MafiaMasshole That’s not accurate. Burgess didn’t “discover nothing.” He used multiple independent data sources, vehicle telemetry, odometer readings, power cycle data, Ring and bar surveillance footage, Waze data from John O’Keefe’s phone, and the three-point turn, to align timing across systems and refine the vehicle timeline. Both sides’ experts were present when the SD card was retrieved, and the process was documented with photographs as outlined in Burgess’s report. The SD card and related modules are in evidence as part of the case record. DiSogra was not asked by the defense to conduct independent testing or produce his own report. Instead, he was retained to review the Commonwealth’s existing reports and opinions. He would have seen the images the experts took of the SD card in the report. He also acknowledged that based on the labeling in the report, he made an inference about what a chart meant, which the prosecution clarified was referencing a slightly different dataset. His opinion is based on reviewing existing materials, not independent forensic reconstruction. The defense did not make any argument that the 74.5% reverse event didn’t happen. Their position is about timing, suggesting the possibility that John locked his phone seconds before or after the reverse maneuver. That is a timing interpretation, not a denial of the vehicle data itself. John O’Keefe’s DNA was found on the back right taillight housing, his clothing, and a cocktail glass. Hair consistent with the victim was also recovered from the bumper. Debris collected from his shirt and sweatshirt included tiny fragments of clear and red plastic, with threads from his clothing embedded in some of the shards. Welcher also testified that an arm impact could be consistent with taillight damage if the vehicle was traveling over roughly 8 mph, and the TechStream data shows speeds up to 24 mph in reverse during the trigger event. You can argue interpretation, but it’s not accurate to say there’s no SD card integrity, no chain of custody, or no supporting physical or digital evidence. That’s not what the record reflects. The defense did not produce an expert to refute the reverse maneuver. I am also done with the gish gallop questioning. One issue at a time, not a rambling stream of consciousness of your "guesses."

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

Guy Lessard (@Guy_Lessard) reported@therealDeFlock Has anyone made an app that tracks them or maybe puts them into the Waze app since police sightings, accidents, and even pot holes are crowd sourced. Like reporting it as a broken traffic light. Make that a code for a flock camera on Waze.

Robert (@berge789) reported@AVGirl4Life 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. If you assimilate to our Waze, we have no problem, but when you want to put your ideals in place, this is a problem. My country is full of capitalist not monarch.
-
Robert Scoble (@Scobleizer) reported@Financewisdom01 The guy who started Waze told me everyone is a bag of human patterns. The algorithms can do things we can’t. Like what if all the teslas in a parking lot started working together to see the grandmas passing behind in wheelchairs that are hard to see in mirrors.

nycwest45th (@westforties) reported@realericmoutsos @leahfiles who is ever going to have a problem with an app like WAZE that you would need to go to their home office?!

Rahul Sood 🏴☠️ (@rahulsood) reported@wholemars I've got two tickets on FSD.. it's annoying.. Tesla should build in radar detector/waze style police awareness and slow down.
-
Sportmotor (@Sportmotor181) reported@Finnaboutanut @DonShift3 Google maps is integrated with waze now too my man. If your trying to avoid them, dont use Google maps, waze, or apple maps. Atleast Waze is fairly accurate with police location you can slow down before hand

Jack (@jackcoder0) reported1. Waze the speed trap app that saves you $200+ in tickets per year. The 2026 CarPlay interface for Waze is cleaner than ever, offering crowd-sourced data on speed traps, potholes, and traffic jams without cluttering your digital real estate. Waze is the one CarPlay app every driver should install regardless of whether they use it for navigation. Waze is the go-to CarPlay app for drivers who regularly deal with heavy traffic. Its community-sourced reporting system alerts you to accidents, road hazards, speed traps, and police presence in real time, often before other apps catch up. Real-time alerts from other Waze drivers: police ahead. Speed trap. Red light camera. Construction. Hazard on the road. Car stopped on the shoulder. Object in the road. You're driving 72 in a 65. A Waze alert pops up: "Police reported ahead." You slow to 65. You pass the speed trap. No ticket. The driver behind you without Waze gets pulled over. One avoided speeding ticket: $150-300. One avoided red light camera ticket: $75-150. Waze is free. The math is obvious. Beyond speed traps: Waze frequently finds faster routes than Apple Maps during heavy traffic because its routing algorithm uses real-time data from millions of active drivers, not just historical traffic patterns. If a highway exit is suddenly backed up because of a fender bender reported 3 minutes ago Waze reroutes you before Apple Maps knows it happened.

Noam Bardin (@noam) reportedLaunched a little experiment @maptoearn. User reports at Waze were always a scaling problem. Trying to fix it with incentives this time. x $M2E per report. No expectations, just a side project.

Wayne Kennedy (@lilwaynekennedy) reported@401_da_sarpanch This is the exact thing I've been saying. These ******* clowns don't speak English, have no idea where they are going and will cross five lanes of traffic last minute to hit an exit because their Waze is slow. I've seen mother ******* backing up on DVP exits. @OPP_HSD
