​Locals upset at Google's Waze for sending traffic to their streets - CNET

Signs of the times

"A Google spokeswoman told residents it's app is not the problem, it's LA traffic, according to the AP. Indeed, the US Department of Transportation said the notoriously busy I-405 sees 379,000 cars a day.
