Waze drivers rejoice! The Google-owned app will now tell drivers how much tolls will cost on their drives.
This highly-requested feature if going to be a lifesaver. Now, drivers may elect to not take the toll road if saving 10 minutes isn’t worth $8 in tolls. On the other hand, drivers may elect to take the toll road if they can save serious time by spending a few bucks.
More importantly, drivers will know how much cash/change to bring with them to pay for tolls if they do not have an electronic pass. The new feature will be available in the U.S. and Canada.
Waze will now show drivers three different routes:
- One with tolls (if applicable)
- One without tolls
- A third possible option if the first two don’t work
Not an easy task
In the U.S. alone, there are more than 5,000 toll roads, and their prices can vary based on time of day, type of car, number of people in the car, what direction you’re heading, and how long you’re on the road.
Basically, Waze had its work cut out for it. However, when there’s a will, there’s a Waze.
Waze users and volunteers sent data about tolls in order to accomplish the monumental task.
Wrapping up
Make sure you check out the new feature! Waze only works well if its users keep it updated and accurate, so your feedback is essential to its functionality!
