IME, Waze's journeys down non-primary roads probably aren't making my driving experience less frustrating and probably don't save any time. Invariably it sends me down a series of side streets with stops signs and dumps me back at a busy primary road where I have to make a left across traffic without the aid of a signal. If I was "up" any time by then I'll probably give it all back and then some waiting to make that final turn of Wave's goofy detour.
- danielweber 10y ago"Left turn onto main thoroughfare with no signal." I've encountered this twice from Google Maps. I wouldn't want this even if it was saving me a few minutes.
- ThrustVectoring 10y agoEven a right onto a main thoroughfare isn't worth saving a few minutes. Re-joining the main flow of traffic is stressful and dangerous.
- RichardCA 10y agoTo me this is the heart of the matter. Waze knows people dislike this but they can't seem to find a way to place that behavior under the user's control. Most of us would be happy to stick to "arterial" streets even if it costs us a few more minutes of drive time.
