As TMZ first reported, with a growing number of LA residents turning to the Google-owned social mapping and navigation app Waze in an attempt to avoid the notoriously bad LA traffic, local surface streets and residential neighborhoods are seeing a dramatic up-shoot in through traffic. The result, according to many residents, is added difficulty getting to and from their own homes and a less safe environment for kids. (Pro tip: Always reference the kids in any protest).
My Two Cents
In #SantaMonica, #Waze has been dead wrong so many times. For surface street alternatives, If you know your neighborhood and you know your time of day (unless there is an accident), Waze is no longer providing me with any value. Residents in LA who wish to provide false positives to Waze, GOOD LUCK. Can't wait to see this play out.
