Driver relied on Waze and ended up on motorcycle lane, say police


PETALING JAYA: A driver had relied on Waze to get him to his destination but was not prepared for the navigation application to guide him through an "alternative route".

Petaling Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Nik Ezanee Mohd Faisal said the 53-year-old man was on his way from his office in Jalan Sungai Besi to Shah Alam on Tuesday (June 23) around 2.30pm when he ended up driving on the motorcycle lane of the busy expressway.
