Where does Waze get information on traffic conditions?
Virtually anonymous phone-based live traffic data collected directly from the large number of drivers who use their service; and user-based reports about accidents or road maintenance, construction sites related works.
How accurate are the police and speed camera alerts?
They are very helpful, but should just be taken as an advisory -- no guarantee.
Can I plan a drive for a future time?
Yes, with the "Planned Drives" feature, you can set your departure time and view predicted traffic conditions along the route in advance.
Why Waze sometimes suggests oddball routes?
Because the app is programmed to prioritize time. If it is quicker by side streets, main traffic conditions currently less used roads or less common paths may be taken in its algorithm.
