Vehicle "attaches" to road
I have noticed that the vehicle icon "attaches" to the road on the map. There are a couple of issues with this. When I am in an unmapped area, such as in a parking lot, the vehicle tends to jump back and forth between its actual location and the nearest road. Also, the exit I take on my morning commute has not updated yet, so WAZE tells me to take the exit prior to it. Even though I do not take that exit the vehicle icon does and shows me driving on the service road rather than on the interstate.
I think the vehicle icon should follow the actual vehicle location rather than trying to stay on a road.

The idea is to actually update the map to show where the roads are in reality. Anyone can add to the map, or you can send a Map Update request through the client interface to make a comment next to where the problem is located.
