On the map

Map reference

Every pin and line you can see on the codriver.io map, what it means, and how long it sticks around before decaying. Drivers can confirm (▲ Still here) or dispute (▼ Gone) a pin as they drive by. Confirm refreshes the lifetime; dispute halves what's left.

Police & enforcement

Live alerts. Typical lifetime 10 min unless confirmed.

Accidents

Live alerts. Typical lifetime 10 min unless confirmed.

Hazards on road

Lifetimes vary: fast-clearing hazards (objects, fog) decay in minutes; potholes & construction stick around for days.

Weather

Live weather hazards. Typical lifetime 10 min to 2 h.

Traffic jams

Live traffic conditions. Typical lifetime 5 min (re-confirmed continuously while the jam persists).

Traffic flow

Coloured lines along the road itself, not pins. Waze measures these from the speeds of drivers running Waze on that road (no roadside sensors), and codriver refreshes them about every two minutes, so a line can run a few minutes behind the road. Lines show measured flow; the jam pins above show what drivers reported.

Moderate
Moving, but measurably slower than this road normally runs.
Heavy
Significant slowdown. Expect to lose time here.
Stand-still
Bumper-to-bumper, the slowest level Waze reports.

An uncoloured road means one of two things: traffic is flowing freely, or no Waze driver has crossed that segment lately. There is no way to tell them apart. Coverage thins out on rural roads, on quiet arterials, and at night, so the absence of a line is not a promise of a clear road.

Roadwork & closures

Construction zones live for ~7 days; road closures for hours.

Speed cameras

Permanent infrastructure pins sourced from OpenStreetMap. Lifetime is effectively unlimited as long as the camera stays mapped upstream.

Charging networks

One unified charger layer from OpenChargeMap (with OpenStreetMap fallback). Each network has its own plate color; the bolt count on a pin is the station’s power tier: ⚡ standard (<50 kW), ⚡⚡ fast (50-149 kW), ⚡⚡⚡ ultra (≥150 kW).

Additional signs

Driver notes and the original Tesla charging signs complete the catalogue.
