All The Car Apps You Need To Get Around Town
We all know that Joburg taxi drivers are impatient, funny at times and an overall fun sport to have when driving. Although not always pleasant, we've come to accept that they are part of our lives. And without them, many people who use public transport wouldn't be able to get around the city. And with these apps, you'll also be driving around like a taxi driver, and may even find yourself featured on #TaxiChronicles.
Waze
Waze is an app that is free on both Android and iOS. Its main function is to inform you about traffic on the roads, making sure you get around the city as quickly and as effectively as possible. We all know just how tiring it is to come back from work and drive in heavy Joburg traffic, but this app helps you avoid congestion and get home safely. Other functions include informing you about accidents, traffic congestion, malfunctioning robots, police presence, alternative route suggestions and syncing you and a friend's arrival times to meetup points.
