Detecting waypoints in google maps

I just want to ask if this is possible in google map v3.I created a marker serve as my waypoints in directions and save those coordinates in my database. my concern for this is. Is it possible to detect one of my vehicle which I set for his waypoints and will know if he passes or not in that waypoints that I created ?

just like this example created @geocodezip,with mulitple waypoints

Multiple waypoints

I want to detect the vehicle if he passes or not in that waypoints.

Thank you in advance.

Iterate over all legs and all steps of the legs.

For each step create a Polyline-object(must not be visible) and use google.maps.geometry.poly.isLocationOnEdge() to check if the given location(vehicle-position) is placed on the Polyline.

When it does, the vehicle has passed the waypoint specified by the start_location of the current leg(and probably the previous waypoints, when the vehicle was following the given route ).
