Waze Adds Motorcycle-Specific Routing in Markets Where Two-Wheelers Dominate

Waze is rolling out a motorcycle mode that routes around hazards specific to two-wheeled traffic—potholes, speed bumps, raised crosswalks, narrow bridges—while surfacing shortcuts unavailable to cars. The feature launches in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, and the Philippines. It pairs AI hazard detection with dedicated human editors, signaling that safety-critical road data still requires ground-truth verification rather than inference alone.
