That should be a hazard report. Not a map error.
Was it the Wazer's car that was on fire, or was there a car on fire that the Wazer was driving by? To be safe, you should call 911 and report the location. :twisted:

Can anyone help me find the "not safe at night" flag, so I can check it?
No way to get Waze to advise that person not to leave the house?

Not sure what they want me to do.
They want to see a gas station landmark there. Or perhaps they want a Slurpee.

I better add house numbers so they can make it home okay...

Yes, we'll need hubcap blurring technology if we're going to do that!

Was there a nearby UR that might've been his previous rant? That would probably be the more interesting one to post.

It'd also be awesome if routing would take that into consideration and provide a route that doesn't exceed your set max by more than a few %. This would make Waze usable in Urban areas for scooter riders without horribly corrupting traffic data or endangering the rider.
And people like me who sometimes keep it under 65 on the interstate to save gas.

Description: Address correction. Map is close but 1775 Senseny Rd is actually my current location. Waze is consistently off by about 20 yards.
20 yards?!?!?! You're concerned about 20 yards? Just consider the technological marvel that is the miniaturized computer that triangulates your position from nuclear clocks in satellites 12,600 miles away which transmit only ~50W of signal. The fact that you're not satisfied with 20 yard accuracy demonstrates just how jaded we've become with our amazing technological feats.
This is what is known as a First World Problem.
