Why would you let eels go anywhere near your hoverboard, that's just crazy!

Hi all,

One of the streets that I turn on is pronounced "Monroe Ter" instead of the full pronunciation of "Monroe Terrace". I checked the wazeopedia and "Ter" is the correct abbreviation and additionally, listening to the street name on the Waze Map Editor pronounces it correctly.

I am not able to get Jane to reproduce. Can you tell us more specifically where it says it and how you are set up? Is it turning left/right from Monroe or one of the side streets? Does it occur only from phone audio or from bluetooth?

It occurs on when heading northbound on S. Monroe St and then making a left onto "Monroe Ter". It occurs over bluetooth. Tomorrow, I'll try just phone audio.
