Google Maps Will Now Show You Real-Time Accidents, Construction, And Road Closures

The update also happens to be the first Google Maps integration of a feature from Waze, the Israeli social maps startup the tech giant bought two months ago in a reported $1 billion-plus acquisition.

Waze users have had the ability to make real-time road reports since February, and now Google Maps mobile users on Android and iOS will see those reports in 13 countries including North America, South America, and Europe.
