I live in London and use Waze every day. I notice that every police vehicle or person is marked on the map by other users very swiftly. It strikes me that this is not a kind gesture from one motorist to another, more the efforts of the criminal fraternity to evade capture or suspicion. The whole business makes me uneasy. Living in a city with a high crime rate most law abiding folk want the police not to be undermined in their efforts to keep us safe from uninsured road users and the scourge of drug dealing etc. I suggest you turn this feature off for dense urban areas with a high crime rate.
