- bhhaskin 9y agoA drive would still be distracted while stopped at an intersection.
- DanCarvajal 9y agoI'd prefer if drivers watched the road and not pop up ads on Waze.
- fitzroy 9y agoNow Waze has an incentive to choose the route with the most red lights. The driving version of the "slideshow" listicle. 'You can skip this intersection in 15, 14, 13...'
- jimmy1 9y agoI hate this. Focusing on the road, even when at an intersection is still the duty of the driver. You have to be active and engaged the entire time you are behind the wheel, not use red lights as an excuse to type out a quick text. I can't tell you how many times I had to honk the horn because a damned distracted driver had their heads down at a green light. This is unsafe as well. Additionally, what if a drunk driver plows through the intersection and comes at you head on? Instead of any chance of reacting + surviving, you are dead. What if an ambulance comes, and you are blocking the left turn lane and you didn't notice because you were too busy looking at a phone or app? As an aside -- we have 100% proven we simply cannot be trusted with smartphones or electronics behind the wheel. I know most will think this is too extreme but I am all for outright banning them from being in the hands of a driver at. all.
