What a Waze to Go! How Traffic is Now My Friend!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Marshall Enterprises

My experience with Waze was earlier this week when I had to drive to St. Paul from my home in St. Michael. 

 

We were experiencing quite a bit of snow, ice and the usual wind.  I felt grateful for my co-pilot, Chief Cook, who had found a great website that gives traffic updates faster than 511mn.org and also gives crowd-sourcing hints for great places to fuel up! 

 

We were able to get from Point A to Point B with a very minimum amount of hassle.  Found a pretty good place to re-fuel and found a great pizza joint, too. 

 

 

If you need help getting around traffic snarls, let me recommend Waze.  It seems to be the Waze of the future!

My GPS is my guide, but there is always room for improvement.  Thanks, Ron.

Hi Ron -- I've heard of WAZE but haven't tried it yet --- hmm, maybe it's KAZE in SoCal though?   Obscure radio/television reference.

We are getting some much needed snow today. Thank goodness the temps aren't too cold. But the mountains are getting hammered with snow and that's great.

Ron- it is one of my very favorite apps that I have on my iPHone and use it all of the time.

Ron, thanks for the tip and we will have to look it up or ask our kids as they seem to have every APP imaginable.

I am still using this.  I had to be in Burnsville the other day.  This saved me at least an hour of drive time!
