If you've ever been caught by radar, you might be interested to know that Google is doing everything it can to warn you about them. Yes, we already have Waze, right. As you know, this collaborative platform allows users to find out about any abnormal circumstance on the road, be it an accident, a traffic jam, construction or radar, in this case thanks to user contributions. In addition, Waze is also part of the Google conglomerate of companies.

We will keep reporting.
