Weird UR, any guesses what is going on here?

I have no idea what's going on here, the user is traveling north, Waze directions are South... Could this happen if Waze had wanted them to get off on the exit going West on Harrodsburg and they "missed" the turn, and somewhere down the road it wants them to turn around and come back to this point?

There's no close way to turn around (probably at least 2 miles, round trip), so I'm thinking that's not it.

I can't see the UR. But, I been getting the backward treatment when waze erroneously snaps me to the opposite lanes more often recently. Haven't submitted a UR when this happens, but it might show the route and the track in different directions even though I'm actually travelling in the direction of the route.

I see these all the time, and the only scenario I can imagine is that they've ignored the Waze directions and Waze is still hellbent on getting them to go the opposite way. Because we don't get enough of the track, it's impossible to troubleshoot.

I see them often, but not on such long stretches of road, considering you usually only see like maybe 1000 feet of track. This is at least several miles, if it was going north all the way to the next road, going around the ramps, back onto the main road and then the turn in the UR.

Just thought it odd stuff.. Hopefully Waze hasn't instructed them to do a U turn ;)

Sorry, I had gone ahead and closed it. Weird stuff, but I have seen a lot of wacky routing the last few days.
