GPS can't catch up to Houston road construction

Eyewitness News reporter Erica Simon compared two travel apps: Google Maps and Waze.

Both did fine for a while, but sure enough, they got off track and gave us the familiar "re-routing" message many of us have seen.

The good news is you can do your part as a driver. You can make a route suggestion to Google Maps, so that hopefully other people don't have to be confused.
