Ok, I don't think we are on Pern or any of the other places where there are dragons. I have no idea why they are talking to this driver.
Maybe it's somethin they're dune.

hmm, talking about Waze or backseat driver?
'She' must be the sweet voice of the Waze TTS instructions.

After I bitch at my address destination point it says proceed to the
highlighted point but it doesn't show any roads on my navigation it did
before it was purple highlighted and now I'm nothing just the other
peoplethat are on the road
For some reason, I find this one very funny. :)

While the new UR layout looks beautiful, it actually has increased the number of clicks required to get anything done.
I made a similar comment in the new WME thread and someone pointed out to me this extension

viewtopic.php?f=819&t=122776&start=10#p992516

It expands the URs and provides boiler plated responses. Very nice.
You can also customize the boiler plated responses.

Reply to a 'more information' request on a general error saying 'no left turn', and my followup question.
Reporter January 08, 2015
When you make a right turn coming from Nelson rd on to prien lake , in front of the Taccoo plus store there a sign that say No Left turn ,
bz2012(5) January 09, 2015
If I understand correctly, you just wanted to let us know that there is a sign saying 'no left turn' at that location. You were NOT telling us that Waze tried to make you turn left at a place where such a turn is forbidden?
Arghhhh. :)

NOTE: at that point there is NO roadway nor (currently) any PLR that Waze could possibly direct someone to take, so there was literally 'no left turn' there.

There is apparently a rare but persistent bug in the app where the voice instruction says to go left even when the display and intended route say to go right, and vice versa.
I have even heard it give the correct direction but the wrong street name!
(it gave me the name of the next street, rather than the one I was about to turn on!)

In this case, it was a 'one time' glitch along a route I drive several times each week, normally getting proper directions. It was NOT something that should ever happen at that intersection!

I feel certain that the Client's cue queue gets scrambled sometimes. Mixing and mismatching the 'turn direction' and 'target name' data.

A true Jolly Driver!
The reporter on 02.16.2015 09:12 AM:

Waze was perfect. I shouldn't have submitted my two map issues. Traffic
was horrible on the route and I just didn't know yet. Apologies.
Nice to get one of these occasionally!
