This. I once sat in stationary traffic for an hour and a half because a truck rolled over on a major highway. Nowadays I put my destination into Waze and if the best route is a long detour I just turn the car off and go back inside.
Same here, besides the going back inside part, that’s a smart move. I read something about Waze sunsetting so I assume that means Google/Apple maps have police warnings now, but I don’t know that for certain.
I honestly used to love a traffic jam on the way to work. An extra hour I wasn’t at work, just chillin’ listening to my music, not being at fucking work. It was great. If traffic was completely stopped, like put it in park, turn off the ignition stopped, then it was Netflix on my phone time baby.
Traffic jams on the way home suuuucked though. At the time real time traffic info in my area was spotty at best, though. Almost impossible to use as an excuse now.
Joke’s on you, I use Google maps to go the exact same way to work every day. The one day I didn’t I got caught in an hour of traffic.

I try to check every day, especially on the way home, it has live traffic. I’ve dodged more than one traffic jam/wreck/etc by checking the directions.
