Google's 'other' maps app will tell you about roads which are accidents prone

Google's navigation app, Waze, is introducing a new feature that will alert drivers when they are approaching a road with a history of crashes. The app uses data from its community of users to track and record accidents, which is then used to identify roads with a high accident rate. Waze will display a notification to drivers when they are approaching such a road, providing information about the number of crashes that have occurred in the past year. Google is using AI and user reports to inform users and limit distractions.
