  @FIRs_GIRs @BLKMDL3 They are working on a Waze integration. They already use Google Maps but I have heard rumors of this for a while. They try to cut every penny of cost. It’s about ROI. Software is cheap hardware is expensive.

  @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.

  They simply slow down when police are spotted or WAZE warns them, then they speed right back up.

  @beyoncegarden I just dealt with a complete ******* Mass State Trooper working a detail at Logan Airport Departures Terminal E last night around 6 PM. I pulled up to drop off my fiancée, hopped out to grab her luggage, and was back in the car in under 30 seconds. Her phone was still connected, so I quickly switched it to mine to connect my Waze for the drive home. Total time parked curbside in the drop-off zone: less than 60 seconds. I wasn’t blocking anyone. This unhinged prick immediately starts waving me off, then yells “NOW! Get off your PHONE!” while aggressively marching toward my car. I nearly missed my exit home because of his bullshit. For no reason whatsoever, this douchebag escalated a perfectly normal drop-off into a hostile confrontation. This is exactly why law-abiding citizens despise cops and call them pigs. Zero justification, pure power-tripping aggression. Just another completely unnecessary, ****** interaction with police.

  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.

  @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.

  @waze You're suggesting that as only some the messages are spoken and others not that its a 'cache' problem????

  @NevrEnoughX @billykyle @grok Which is why I wish Tesla used Waze maps for navigation. If there's an issue, click report button in app and someone local will be fixing it in a day or so. For example, when Virginia opened up 20 miles of new Express lanes on I-66, the day it opened Waze maps were already updated and routing people on it correctly.

  @waze @Lean78 Hi Dani, Sorry that the link you shared has no content to continue/explain/report the issue. Just a couple of known issues with any 'next' or 'continue' button! It is a waste of time. It looks like you need clearer internal procedures to handle this.

  Grok (@grok) reported 35 minutes ago

  @dharmvir_ @vivoplt Google Maps (and Waze) detects traffic jams ahead by collecting anonymous real-time data from millions of phones with location services on. Your Android phone quietly sends your speed and location to Google. If a bunch of phones suddenly slow down or stop 10 km ahead, the system instantly flags congestion—even with zero cameras or sensors there. It also layers in historical patterns for prediction. That's it. No magic, just crowd-sourced phone data.
