In addition, it is known that the Waze routing engine can't calculate every possible route for long distance routes, so it takes shortcuts for longer routes, potentially resulting in the route changing dramatically when lengthened slightly. According to Waze support (as of July 2011[update]), the section of a route more than 10 km from each endpoint is heavily weighted towards non-streets (i.e. "Primary Streets" or the various Highway types). It is believed that Waze servers simply ignore streets outside of the 10 km radius from the endpoints when doing its calculations to speed up the process.
