Contest details

We’re giving away an Android myTouch 3G phone or iPhone 3Gs (winner’s choice) to one of the first 100 unique wazers who send in a road report in your state! Note that we’ll start with the first 10 states to get to 100 road reports by unique users, and may expand the contest afterwards, accordingly.

With one entry per user, if you’re one of the first 100 drivers to send a road report in your state, you’ll have a 1% chance to win! And even if you don’t win, we’ll send the top 5 waze road reporters (by frequency), in these first 10 states, a bag of goodies as a thank you for their contributions to the community.
