Ditto.

Traffic can be very heavy and very random in my city. You never know when a road is blocked.

    I found a ridiculous road closure last week, and GPS routed me through a ton of backroads I had never taken before. It was only marginally faster, but I'm glad I was constantly moving, and not on a highway-turned-parking-lot for those 2 hours. Also, we got to experience some new scenery that we may never have seen otherwise, which is at least interesting.

    It's random because everyone is using GPS to determine the routes that are not contested resulting in those areas becoming contested.

    I've noticed google maps always gives me the same, longer route while waze always gives me the fastest one. I believe maps has some kind of thing to manage traffic so it doesn't always give you the fastest route.
