I have only used it on long distance drives in terms of LEO spotting, which wasn't that useful (but as more drivers use it the better it is).
I use Waze too. It's an additional layer for me. It can pick up, for example, an LEO using VASCAR, whereas no radar detector will alert to VASCAR. However, like you say, it's not 100%. Nothing is. It does work better where there are more drivers -- not so well on long interstate drives. But my commute to work is from a fairly rural area into the big city. I get lots of warnings, not only to LE but other hazards. Some are just noise, but other alerts help immensely. For me, I use it all the time, not just commuting.


Cheers.
