The admins have already said they have no interest in doing this as "Waze is for commuters" .... what exactly that's supposed to mean I'm not sure... Residents of a gated community should already know that there are "special" entrances that only they can use, why route thousands of Waze users there when they can't get in?
Waze should not route drivers through roads that are known to be restricted to residents, cardholders, employees, etc.
The simple fix is to mark those roads as one-way streets (for community exits, so everyone can exit the property easily), and mark the entrance lanes as "restricted," and never route a driver to that location until the Waze *USER* has taken that route several times (Waze still "learns" your preferred routes over time, right?).
Right now the rest of us, including tourists and new drivers, still get taken to places we're not allowed to go, leaving us stranded, trying to find another way to get in. This is especially harmful to those of us who drive for a living. It's bad enough being taken to a resident-only restricted entrance to a gated community when you're delivering a pizza and end up late because you have to figure out how to get to the right place, but imagine being a ride share driver taking a tourist from the airport to their rental house only to end up at the back gate and not know where the front entrance is? It's bad enough that taxi cab drivers have a reputation for taking the longest possible route to run up the meter, why do we willingly force this on our own community of users?
I've repeatedly been given the brushoff excuse of "Waze is for commuters", however anyone in a commuting situation will know that certain dedicated entrances are available for their use, like a gated community that has a second entrance on the opposite side of the property that requires an entry card, clicker or transponder, but doesn't have a call box or security guard to facilitate non-resident entry.
Out of the nearly 16 million registered drivers in Florida alone, Waze says we should give preferential treatment to the 300 residents in a gated community... How is THAT fair to the rest of the Waze community?
