Consumers who listen to or follow Waze directions and never look outside their car.

Consumers who blindly follow Waze or any GPS directions to the wrong location happens frequently

Most common cause a set up error and not looking for physical locations to check route. Consumers clicked on an incorrect “place” – location (first one in the list) in setting up the route.

Same problem in airplane flying and boating. GPS moving maps are great BUT…look outside for landmarks to confirm. GPS can be hacked and jammed.

“Mom is way off course let’s not tell her” We’ll never get to the dentist on this road. She typed in the wrong name and has never looked outside while talking on her cell phone.
