If you have it you know it's works if you don't get it!

Pretty good free GPS but the big plus is the reporting feature hat allows users to point out cops, road debris, disabled cars and traffic.

Been driving with it for two weeks now and it's pointed out every speed trap and cop I've passed. the more people on it the better!!

Great alternative to Google Maps which has sent me to random places before.. Once due to them not tagging a street number to a shopping center and sent me 5km down to the wrong end of the road

Especially since Waze is owned by Google, and uses Waze information to figure out traffic flow.

I used it pre-Google buyout, and it was HORRIBLE on my daily commute, mostly because the GPS information would dump me onto side streets. . . when I wasn't even on the side streets at the time.

It might be better now, but try it with caution: it's only as good as the app's ability to track you.

The Moderator of this stupid thing took two threads on the same topic and merged them. He's such a toolbag for doing that.
