The a/b "reversal" was documented before, I forget where, and whether we figured out the reason.

I'm not sure Waze did this, or one of the user scripts.

Press shift+F to go into full screen mode. This will only give you more vertical space though, not horizontal space.

That's what the sandbox feature is for - just don't be logged in when you access the editor and you can learn without actually changing anything...

Screen Shot 2012-11-08 at 8.29.37 AM.png
In the Image above, you can see on the South end of the Street that there is no way to add a right turn to the circle. This leaves directions always leading to the left regardless of which way is closer. I'm not sure it this is a systemic issue whenever there is a street configuration like this or if it's just a misconfiguration in this specific street. Any adice?

Just from the image it looks like Reserve Circle is a loop. A segment can't start and end on the same node, it needs an extra junction on it somewhere...

I've got a boring editing problem.

I noticed a map error while driving on a road, and I'd like to fix it.

When I enter into the editing screen, I verified that, even if the whole road area is available for editing (that's very close to my last drives), the system says I'm not enable to edit it...

I checked the tutorial, I should be able to do it...

any suggestion? is that my problem or some kind of bug?

I'm using Chrome 22.0.1229.94 m

Ciao
1) Is the road locked?
2) Have you seen http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=31184 ?

Can you select a country? There is nothing in that dropdown here in the US...
