Getting close to being promised, might want to post over here: http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=33709

Where I earned my motorcycle license, that kind of riding was illegal.

It has been requested that Waze support different vehicle types (cars, motorcycles, trucks, etc etc) but that does not exist yet nor has it been promised.

For now Waze is aimed at the daily commuter in a personal automobile. If you are not behaving like one, using Waze is creating negative effects for other users.

perhaps there should be an option for us to select if we're motorcyclists/scooters/cyclists (for NYC messengers) so that Waze will not take our data into factor.

Well how is that for timing

Please see this official topic to request/discuss possible additional vehicle types. Closing this thread now that we have the official thread.

In the UK, it's called filtering and, I understand from a biker friend, positively encouraged in lessons.
