*Well, it finally happened. My love affair with Waze is over after almost 6 years. I started losing interest several months ago. There are some really whiney people that only want to hurt people instead of just enjoying editing. This is a natural recourse of allowing people to "self govern". Those who would not otherwise be in charge of something of real value, get to be in charge of things that have no value. Too bad! Anyway, I'm still the undisputed leader in edits and points. Who knows, after the inbreeding dies down, I may choose to edit once again. - February 24, 2021

A Little About Me
Found out about Waze completely by accident using Google Maps. Was returning home from Chandler when I got caught behind a new accident on I-10 near the tunnel. While I was waiting...and waiting...I figured it would be fun to find out how Google Maps knew about the accident. It stated that it had been reported by a Waze user. I had to find out what that was, so I looked for the app and installed it.
I immediately fell in love with the features and options. It wasn't but a few days when I discovered that editing was an option. I spent hours the first night just adding "red roads" and wondering why my roads were red and all the other roads were white. It didn't take long for another editor to gently inform me of my errors and what to do to correct them.
That first editing day was April 6, 2015. I have not missed a day editing since!!! :)
