- Waze Your Way Out of Holiday Traffic
- Waze shares traffic data to help you outsmart congested roads this holiday season
It’s the most wonderful (and jam-packed) time of the year! Waze, the platform bringing together communities on and off the road, today released traffic data to help you outsmart congested roads this holiday season.
Driving patterns from last year’s data indicated that more people were traveling in December compared to a regular month, highlighting a 10 percent increase in active users on Waze. Not only that there were more vehicles on the road, with drivers spending 12 percent more time on Waze in December compared to a regular month.
Keeping these driving patterns in mind, you can expect the same or even more vehicles and longer hours spent on the road this holiday season.
