Road on route exclusion
For commercial vehicles in London there are many roads we arent allowed to drive down (such as the royal parks)
It would be great for this and other issues regarding traffic and other obstructions to install a feature that allows you to exclude a certain road from your trip, Allowing Waze to reroute you avoiding that a particular road if possible.
I had a TomTom 10 years ago that allowed you to do this and I used it regularly.

provide a Navigation Prompt whenever the road name changes.
This is needed in two scenarios:
When a turn from Smith Ave to Jones Street, for example, is slight enough the client provides no direction. No matter how slight the angle of entry to a new road is, the client should say "turn right" or "slight right" on the road with a different name than the current road. This is especially confusing if Waze is running in the background, since my eyes are telling me I'm at an interchange and Waze isn't providing direction.Also, when the road you are driving on changes names but continues straight in the…

Old Pine Road. Ford, VA
Old Pine Road, Ford, VA is not off of Wells Road, Ford, VA. The map is wrong. When they turn off of Wells Road, they go through my parents' farm which is a private driveway. We have a sign posted stating the GPS is wrong but delivery vehicles and others are still going through our land and find out they cannot get through. Please correct it on you map. The only way they can go through is from Baltimore Road, Ford, VA.

Customized Price/Time rate for routes calculation
Now Waze always propose an option of routes without toll which is good, but not enough for me
Indeed, very often there is a compromise between full toll and no toll being relevant and worthy (cheaper than full toll, faster than no toll)To improce the relevency of the routes proposal an adjustable ratio price/time should be considered
For exemple, for a ratio 1€/min, a toll road at 16€ for 20 min gain will be proposed but not another at 12€ for 10min gain compared to no toll option

Vehicle NOT “car” on side of road
Recent changes to the hazard reporting system has it calling a vehicle on the side of the road always a car, but the majority of the time it’s not a car it seems. Why did it change from vehicle on side of road to car on side of road? It’s like the folks at Waze have never seen a truck.
It’s also also still too many taps to report this. Furthermore, the Button to report this is right in the middle which makes it too easy to tap something else, it should be either at the very top or…

Human on shoulder/road
Once, we received a report of an animal on the shoulder of the road, so we paid some attention and looked for animals on the tree line, but it was a person. It was pitch dark, and we drove a few inches away from them because they were in entirely dark clothes on a highway at night. We can report humans on the app to save lives.

Suite of Tolls features (toll plazas location, toll prices, total costs per ride, etc)
English: The idea would be to have a bunch of tolls features that would be highly useful in different manners. All of them would be managed/contributed by the users themselves, something very similar to what we already have regarding Gas Stations:
- Locations of Tolls Plazas, with notification when getting closer to it and informing the updated value based on the vehicle type the user configures;
- Option to add, update or delete tolls plazas location and prices based on vehicle type;
- Total amount of costs to be spent in the Routes Summary - it'd help the user decide…
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Road closure automatic pop-up
It would be nice, when we don't follow Waze instructions, that Waze automatically show a little pop-up to ask why we didn't follow the instruction. It would have, for example, 3 buttons: roadwork, closure, ignore. And if the user doesn't do anything after 10 seconds, the pop-up would just ignore and close.
It happened multiple time to me that a road is closed, but because of circulation around and behind me, I can't really take the time to navigate in the UI to find the good option to signal it, and then, once I have the time, it's just…
18 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Currently Not Planned, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Enlarged Road names and numbers when the map is enlarged
I do not understand why road names and numbers do not enlarge proportionally to the map. It makes no sense whatsoever. There is a reason I am enlarging the map and it is to read the information. Please allow road signs and names to enlarge u proportion to the map size.
