  I've been known to tag a bunch of police cars on Waze throughout my shift so people slow down and I don't have to work accidents.

  @MagaSgt @waze I'll save you the trouble and delete you first. Hopefully many others will follow my lead.

  @TheLaluka @waze @gouvernementFR I suspect if you were asking in the US they'd want nothing to do with it for liability reasons, no idea if there would be similar issues in France

  Part 1: 21 one year old Jason Landry disappeared while driving home from college in December 2020. Jason was a student at Texas State University in San Marcos. On the night of December 13th, he left his apartment shortly before 11 p.m. and began driving toward Missouri City, where his parents lived. He was planning to spend time with friends during the Christmas break. His family wasn’t expecting him that night. Phone data showed Jason traveling south through Luling. At around 11:26 p.m., his phone stopped connecting to the Waze navigation app near the intersection of Magnolia Avenue and Austin Street. Investigators believe he continued straight instead of following the main road and entered Salt Flat Road, an isolate gravel road outside town. Jason apparently lost control of his Nissan Altima and crashed through a fence before striking trees. Authorities concluded that it was a single-car accident and found no evidence that another vehicle caused the crash. At 12:31 a.m. on December 14th, a volunteer firefighter discovered the wrecked car. Its headlights were still on and the keys remained in the ignition. Jason was nowhere nearby. His phone was later found wedged between the driver’s seat and the centre console. The initial response created problems for the investigation. A state trooper inspected the scene, arranged for the car to be towed and removed ********* from Jason’s backpack. However, Jason’s clothing and several belongings were left along the road, and no immediate search for a missing driver was launched. Jason’s father, Kent Landry, learned about the crash and reached the area around dawn. After finding Jason’s phone inside the impounded car, Kent returned to Salt Flat Road. Roughly 900 feet from the crash, he found his son’s shirt, shorts, underwear, socks, shoes and watch scattered along the roadway. A small blood smear was found on the clothing, but investigators said it did not suggest a serious injury. There was no blood inside the car. They believe Jason may have received a minor cut while climbing out through the damaged fence or surrounding vegetation.

  If I say I don't use Waze because it's Israeli made then I'm pretentious/too woke/ doing too much. If I say I prefer a different app then it's no problem. I am so tired of the apathy of the world and it being a social sin to give a damn

  @seunteee I like the cos it avoids traffic but I’m so used to Google maps and Waze was pickings false cameras. Maybe interface issue

  @TheEXECUTlONER_ I do this at times when I suspect the police are just ahead (the bear box is growling or Waze shows a cop). I have seen this 1000s of times. It is as if the driver is afraid you are going to block him behind the car he is following. Just know that the driver of the truck following the vehicle in the slow lane is watching you. You can stay back for 30 minutes, and that driver will not pull into the fast lane. But the moment you get close enough to pass the vehicles in the slow lane, the truck (or whatever) will pull out into the fast lane. One way to prevent it is to know the truck driver is watching and, when you get close enough, speed up and hope the Driver is not paying attention so that you close the gap too fast. Be ready to hit your brakes just in case the driver is paying attention and pulls out anyway.

  @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.

  @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

  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

  The @waze app has become a PAIN in my *** over these past few months. At first I thought it may have been a CarPlay issue or due to my data, but it’s not! It doesn’t update in a timely fashion like it used to and I end up having to bust a u turn because I’ve gone the wrong way

  @BenCarrollMP How many of the last 30 years have Labor been in office? And as far as reporting problems? Just get your blokes on Waze. The public are doing their best to warn each other.

  @Suzybeau1 @Martine05885145 The WiFi login time came from Karen’s phone. Guarino’s testimony. Uncontested. The GPS data can be wrong within its stated error range, which was very small while Waze was activated.
