Please introduce an option to switch between routing algorithms directly on the route selection screen.

Currently, Waze combines real-time traffic data with historical traffic predictions. However, historical patterns can be misleading because traffic conditions constantly change due to school holidays, roadworks, temporary traffic arrangements and other unpredictable factors. Even the same roadworks can cause severe congestion one week and allow smooth traffic flow the next.

I propose three selectable routing modes:

1. Predictive – The current algorithm combining historical and real-time traffic data.
2. Real-Time – Prioritizes actual speeds measured from active Waze users, without historical traffic predictions. Where live data is insufficient, standard road speeds could be used.
3. Basic – Calculates routes using road characteristics and speed limits, without traffic predictions.

Users should be able to switch between these modes with a single tap and immediately compare the resulting routes and estimated travel times.

In countries with widespread Waze usage, real-time measurements can provide a more accurate picture of current traffic than historical predictions.

The goal is not to remove predictive routing, but to give users the freedom to choose which algorithm they trust.
