We Haven't Even Talked About Those Impossible Left Turns They Want You To Make Yet

In case you want to revisit the whole Waze controversy, here's another article about how nav apps can cause worse backups by sending traffic into residential neighborhoods that can't handle it, and there are more elements to it, like when you're following Waze instructions and notice a LOT of other cars suddenly around you, because they, too, are getting the same instructions (and thus clogging the roads), or the issue mentioned in some of the Florence coverage in which nav apps are directing people to drive on flooded roads. Honestly, you have to be smart enough to research some alternate routes and know when to ignore what Waze tells you to do. Getting off the freeway, going on small, stop-light-filled roads and rejoining the freeway to avoid a two-minute slowdown probably isn't worth it. (WSB-TV/Atlanta)
