Garmin users can now share their cycling location through Waze for extra safety
Waze is partnering with Garmin to make creative use of the company's LiveTrack feature.
AI Summary
Garmin’s LiveTrack feature is being integrated with Waze to improve cyclist safety. When a cyclist enables LiveTrack on a Garmin smartwatch or Edge bike computer, their location is temporarily shared with Waze, causing a notification and moving icon to appear for drivers ahead on the road. The sharing is optional and automatically stops when the ride ends on the Garmin device. Waze assures that the cyclist’s name, identity and route are never disclosed. This partnership aims to give motorists advance warning of nearby cyclists.
