Yeah, the UR should have been "failed to recalculate after I left the route"

Unfortunately the UR sometimes does not contain exactly the same route, as which was displayed in the client. Rather one long prior to or after a recalculation.

WTF? Google reckons it's a town in Slovakia.

Žiar nad Hronom indeed is, even Waze is aware of it https://world.waze.com/livemap/?zoom=8& ... yers=BTTTT

I don't feel at all guilty about putting "not identified" on this one.

I'd also like to know, WhoTF & WhereTF & WhyTF did post that UR

Just a wild guess: if the straight line was placed absolutely randomly (GPS error?), maybe someone in ZnH, Slovakia complained for being (temporarily) thrown into Central London, UK?

Solved or Not Identified?

Unfortunately c) Identified
But! we are social, it is even possible to report the problems

[Off-topic] Can someone (a mod with with sufficient editing rights?) try to explain me, why kaeoboy's post http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php ... 11#p303411 does not display the quotation in the usual yellow rectangle??
Is the post witchy or ill-wished?

Thanks! Apparently it keeps for a post.
Have you enabled it? It is on now.

Well, that explains it as well

A bunch of uniform URs:

Yet another way how to pave a new road in an aerial-less area. (Using the green 'User drive (GPS trace)' was excellent!)

Waze, we do need a communication channel to the UR users!

Reason: enabled BBCode to fix the quote.

Funny, shouldn't the forum use my default post settings (=bbcode enabled) when I edit his post?

It apparently adheres to the quoted post's settings, not to the responder's - to keep the formatting?
I've also run into such unquotable post' problem in the past and did not get the "Disable BBCode" idea back then, until reminded.

And some GPS art:

Reminds me on one thread from a few days ago - possibly an iOS' "corrected" GPS position, snapped to the wrong road?

What's the known (not the advertised) half-life of the GPS tracks?
