Waze is an interesting tool for those who drive and search for data on traffic conditions. Different from other apps, it doesn’t always offer the same routes, but rather it relies on and provides routes made by other users, sharing traffic information in real time. In a sort of social network, it allows each person to enter the relevant information they find about a particular place in the traffic, such as a tree fallen in the middle of the road or a hit.
