Can we make inputs from the radio screen? It is distracting to have to reach for the phone to clear the pop up windows.

Repetitive Alerts Should be Summarized
Recently, I was using Waze on Northbound I-280 in the San Francisco Bay Area. The traffic was pretty bad. Waze is pretty popular around here and folks were reporting the bad traffic. So much so in fact that you could barely see the map. It seems to me that if you have more than two or three people basically reporting the same thing (in this case stopped traffic) you can simply summarize and say "multiple bad traffic reports" or some such. The current extremely cluttered screen is basically useless.
In this case, I was using an iPhone, but I think…

Show variance in traffic report icons on map.
There are 3 levels of traffic, but only the "heavy" icon displays. The user has to click on a traffic icon to find out whether it's moderate, heavy, or complete standstill.

Making marking spots more easily
I live in Taipei, Taiwan. Information in Waze around Taipei is much less. I often see many important places not shown in Waze map, such as convenient stores and parking space. If we can mark it on map more easily, we can improve map in Taipei more quickly.

Would like to be able to move a marked hazard.
Sometimes I can't report a hazard in the exact location due to having to drive. When I finally am able to mark a location, I am often far away from the actual event.

No need to show the route I have ALREADY travelled, just the part I am going to travel
I got really confused for a bit today when somehow I was looking at where I had ALREADY travelled. There is no need to show the part of the route I already traversed. There is only the need to show where I am going.

New road segment for yields
Currently the routing algorithm assigns a penalty where ever a junction is located in the editor. I believe no penalty should be assigned to a junction with a connecting yield segment, as traffic typically isn't slowed down at these junctions. I believe that creating a new yield road type segment would improve routing accuracy. I've seen many URs that could have been prevented if such a segment already existed. A junction with signal lights should not be treated the same as a junction with a yield.

Two way or One way scheduled
Here in Brasiília, DF, Brazil, we have some streets that are two way... but, at rush hours it's turned to one way only for a couple of hours.
Also we have another big one that is closed on sundays or holidays.
So, would be interesting to have some editor function to define the schedule of that street... because waze always route us to them and for tourists, that's sucks...
Thank you guys, great job!

Waze distress signal
As a Wazer, wouldn't be great to be able to send out a distress signal. Tyre change, out of gas, need engine help, etc. Perhaps also car make specific help, in that case a personal setting including car make could be needed.
If another user helps you out he or she would gain some 100 p. To avoid misuse the extra points only should apply when you help a non friend Wazer.
Or turn the other way around and let users state what type of help he or she could provide. No need to get flagged for help if you…

Show location at end of Navigation
This is more of a copy of Navigation for Android.
Anyone that have used the Android Navigation knows that at the end of the Navigation, it shows you the street view at the arrival.
You guys should incorporate the Street View at the end/or arrival of the destination (or stop off points).
I do a lot of traveling to places I have never been to and one of the best thing about Google's Navigation is that it shows you street view once you arrive so you know exactly what to look for. That is why I still can't use Waze…

Disallow all undriverable from being connected to roads to prevent routing errors
Walking trails, boardwalks, stairwell (why does this exist) and railroads SHOULD NOT be permitted to be connected to a junction point on a highway, primary road, street, service road or ramp. By preventing the different types from being connected, it should prevent any routing errors from driveable segments onto non-driveable segments.

Alerting people about highway emptiness
One thing that could make it better would be to have the ability to say streets or highways are empty so people know before hand where to go if they should get on the highway or not.
