[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mostly use Waze for things like figuring out what my best route is to work in the morning (there are several I can take, so I look for which are backed up and which are clear - no sense in adding to a traffic jam).  When using it for other trips, I scrutinize the routes they suggest because I hate being sent through a bunch of neighborhood roads to save two minutes when I’m going to lose those two minutes trying to make a left onto a major roadway that has no traffic controls at that intersection.[/quote]

I also use it to choose from the three or four options available to me to get to work. None of the options involve residential routes, so I usually go with the Waze suggestion.

I also like the warnings of hazards and slow traffic so that you can be prepared.  Sure, I don't need to know about every vehicle stopped on shoulder ahead, but sometimes the hazard warnings are helpful.  The same is true with jams along your route.  I just came back to my office after encountering traffic with some unexpected slowdowns. Using Waze, I was on the lookout for the slowdowns, but some people behind me swerved off the road because they were taken by surprise.
