    Waze is a social gps and real-time traffic app with instant rerouting, fuel prices, hazard reporting, road closures -- at the core is a community of 45 Million people that hate traffic and are working together to outsmart it. At Waze, we’re striving to save everyone 10 minutes a day. Because the bigger the community, the better the data, we're now on 32 TV stations every morning helping commuters avoid traffic and are also in 17 after market devices which can turn any car into a connected car. In July, we expect to launch in our first fully embedded global vehicle. Waze was also used by the White House and FEMA during Hurricane Sandy, by the City of LA during Carmageddon, President Obama on his recent trip to Israel. Waze was also recommended by Apple CEO, Tim Cook during the Apple Maps apology letter.
