Map Says no Turn, But Waze Tells me to Turn

Postby helphand » Thu Sep 13, 2012 1:50 am

This is driving me nuts. Every morning I drive this route to work and Waze tells me to make a left turn from Main Street to E McDurmott, an impossible turn (concrete center divider on Main).

The map has a RED turn indicator for the left turn, so why is Waze ignoring the indicator and telling me to make this turn. The permalink to the map is here https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=33.68966&lon=-117.86467&layers=BFTFTTTFTTFTTTTFTTTTFT&segments=6929584

The direction of travel is northwest on Main Street. Waze keeps insisting on a left turn onto E McDurmott (where the red arrow is on the map). So the map is right, but the navigation instructions I get every morning are wrong.

Can anyone help?

Could have been corrected but has not made the update to clients. Unfortunately we can not see the date the turn restrictions were changed, just the last time the segment was changed.

Look in support page, at the top is a link to support with date of last update of tiles to client. Might be this week or next week, or week after that for the next one. We haven't heard yet.

Looks like those turns may have been changed since the last map tile update which happened yesterday but contains edits as of September 4th. It takes around a week to get from the editor to the client lately, and in the very recent past it took more like a month. So no promises, but it should be better next week sometime.

Thanks for the explanations. I'll be patient and wait for the tile to update.
