How about adding an icon that allows us to mark known speed traps in our area even if we are not driving by at a particular moment? It could
How about adding an icon that allows us to mark known speed traps in our area even if we are not driving by at a particular moment? It could be a picture of a radar gun. Also, don't allow a single user to remove a police icon. It's too easy for the police to click "not there" themselves on a dummy account and it disappears.

Moving map position
A suggestion for the moving map display: would be nice to have the position of your own icon weighted towards the edge of the map where you have been. This would show more of the route you are yet to travel.

Incorporate Buses
Be able to report a public bus sighting by typing in the bus number on the back so people who take the bus can see approximately where it is at and how close it is to the stop you are at.

Report "Good" road conditions
When I report "bad" road conditions, it helps drivers around me avoid an area. Sometimes, when I reach an area that is reported as "bad" it turns out to actually be less congested or jammed up than reported earlier.
It would be very beneficial to everyone using the app if we could report when a road has good conditions. This would meet the goal of providing real time map updates that benefit everyone looking to see what route is best for them based on the conditions.

Sharing Routes With Friends
The sharing tool from Whatsapp is not so accurate, so it would be very nice to have something to like that but functional. The main idea is an option that you could save the actual route that you're running and export this to your friends, it would be very useful for trips to countryside and rural areas.And in urban areas sometimes you may not want the shorter or the faster way but the safer way. - general

Wait times for metered on ramps
When On ramps are metered there can develop a very long queue to enter a freeway this should be considered in route calculations, but it doesn't seem to be. The navigation has you turning on to a street that had an on ramp to a freeway that is backed up several blocks beyond where you made your turn onto the street. The result is you cannot merge into the lane that allows you access to the on ramp.

You need another subheading in hazards
You should add "hitchhiker" under the hazard- roadside heading. I passed 3 today. One of whom was staggering along the roadside. And under hazards IN the road there should be slow driver.
I don't recall seeing that.3 votes -

Set location of a "Report" for where you press the Icon that displays the reports instead of setting it where you are when you select send
I like to participate in Waze to help others as they've helped me, but often don't see things to report until I'm already on top of it. (i.e. speed trap, hazard, etc.) I've found that the location based on my selection is placed far further on the map from the actual occurrence by time I select the remaining options and hit "Send". As the last thing I want to be doing while traffic is maneuvering and breaking is seeing which additional selections need to be made to make sure I select correctly, it would be nice if selecting the "Report"…

Give me a "I know where I'm going so don't bug me unless I need to know something" option
You need an option that allows the user to indicate that they know the route that they are taking, e.g., I don't need turn by turn instructions- I take the same handful of routes every day but I use Waze for estimating distance or alerting me to obstacles. Instead, tell me when the route I'm on has a problem. Because you don't have this option, I turn it on and off at various times.

more traffic options
You should add the ability to report light traffic, such as when you're somewhere that's abnormally uncongested.

Reporting Long Light Cycles
I recently sat at a left turn signal for 4 or 5 cycles. I wanted to report a LONG light so others didn't try to turn there too. Currently I cannot do that.

Add a report feature for disaster reporting so emergency responders have real time info
In today's Napa earthquake, it took many hours for emergency responders to collect, report and analyze data, do triage, etc. let the crowd report details of disaster events (type, severity, help requested, etc) and generate dashboards for emergency responders to see a summary and details of the data

Warn about dangerous road sections and interserctions.
Accidents occur more often at specific road sections and intersections. Since Waze receive accident warnings, two things could be done: alert Waze users that they are driving through a dangerous zone and make this information available to traffic authorities.
