Motorcycling
One of the three vehicle types that can be selected within the app is the motorcycle. Although there are many types of motorcycles, including variants with three wheels, we in the Dutch Waze community adhere to the guidelines that the government has drawn up for vehicles. According to the Dutch legislator (provided a vehicle has several front wheels) two front wheels are considered one wheel if they are <465mm apart. Therefore, trikes, the Can-Am and most three-wheeled motorcycles do NOT fall under the Waze "motorcycles" category, and users of these vehicles should opt for the "car" vehicle type.
Other advantages of using this vehicle type as Waze navigation is that the routing engine takes the so-called 'filtering' into account. In traffic jams, cars will be able to find a new route faster than motorcycles because they can drive between or along the traffic jam.
There are also a number of specific signs that have a lot of impact for motorcyclists. For example, there are the signs: , , , en G07, G11, (or the lack thereof) that have a lot of impact for correct editing of the map for motorcycle navigation.
Often C06 is wrongly seen as C02, see the [Restrictions|restrictions page]. Road authorities also often use bollards to interrupt a through route and these so-called 'clips' are also placed on the map in this way, while these clips without adding the corresponding signs , , C12, , G07, G11, may be passed by motorcyclists, and should therefore be put on the map as such.
