WatchDo Not Steal Our Robot Dog! CCShare SubtitlesOffEnglishThe alerts will appear at the bottom of the app with a message saying something like “History of crashes - next 1 mi.” It won’t point out any specific bad intersections or especially problematic stretches of road, though it may help snap a driver out of any road trip fugue and get them to pay a little bit more attention to their driving. The app also doesn’t specify whether these accidents occur with pedestrians, cyclists, or with other vehicles.AdvertisementWaze promised that drivers won’t see these alerts on roads they regularly drive. Google already keeps plenty of data from users about local accidents or speed traps, and the app should still report road closures or upcoming accidents.AdvertisementWaze already offers some roadside alert data both to users and to emergency responders about accidents, so this latest feature is simply building on the data the app has already been collecting from drivers. Google started hit with layoffs in June this year amid industry-wide belt-tightening, so we may see even more cross-pollination between both apps.
