Reply to comment by Logical-Error-7233 in OMG Traffic and WTF Waze by nebirah

I live off of Lake Street in Arlington. I can tell when Waze tells everyone to use Lake Street and Mass Ave as a cut through to Alewife Brook Parkway because I can't get out of my neighborhood.

It's really bad in the outer neighborhoods. I remember one time I took an uber to get someplace in Porter square from the south end and Waze took us through about twenty quiet neighborhood with a thousand turns to eventually take a left back onto Mass Ave a block before the destination. We could have just taken one turn from my apartment onto Mass Ave and made the full trip in two turns.
