If there’s a road closure acknowledge it and recalculate a route
I get that you need several people to confirm theres an actual road closure but if I am the first there and I need an alternative route, it keeps sending me back to the closed road.

way to tell waze I'm in the other parallel road
Sometimes waze tells me to enter the highway when it has heavy traffic and the service road I am is much faster. Then I disobey him, but it thinks I'm in the highway and keeps collection wrong data.
I think we you could have an option that when enabled and waze can't be sure in which of 2 parallel roads I am, I could tell him he got it wrong.
It must be a single touch in the screen to alternate between the roads, because I would be driving when it happens.
This way I would generate better…

Add road closures when not on a route
Android and Car Play do not let you mark road closures while driving. In large cities, WAZE is often inaccurate because of the number of event road closures that go unreported. Please add a feature to add road closures for non-drivers and off-route drivers in large cities.

Road name at bottom when driving
Can you write the road name on which you are in that moment at the bottom in between search and sound? That will be very helpful to see which road are you in that moment! Thank you

Tolls
Implementation of the toll rates!
Automatically calculates the price at an entry naviguation when using highway and toll! Updated by other wazers (like gas stations).
Gives the amount of travel when using a motorway!
Way, each Wazer can prepare his way in better conditions and to know your expenses during his journey.
Good luck to you

"Closed Road" in quick access
(not sure of the english term in Waze App)
One of my UR mentionned the idea to have a quick access at "Closed Road" without having to search in menu.
Most of time, users are using "Incorrect route" or "General error" instead of "Closed Road"

Can we get Car/Bumper stickers so we can see other Wazers on the road while driving
When I see other Wazers on the map it is difficult to see them on the road. It would be good to acknowledge each other as this a community project. So some sort of Waze sticker would be good

Forward road-hazard reports to Highway Patrol
Sometimes I see the same dangerous road hazards day after day and I think local authorities would take care of it if Waze could only pass on the report (if only reports with a lot of "confirmations" from other Waze users).

I'd like to suggest changing the phrase "accident" to something more meaningful. Perhaps collision, road blockage, debris in road, etc.
I'd like to suggest changing the phrase "accident" to something more meaningful. Perhaps collision, road blockage, debris in road, etc. I would think most of the issues would be collisions. Accident implies no fault, and there was likley at lease one driver at fault.

Way to update the closed road
Actually it's difficult to update the fact that a road is closed.
I can't update the road due to the fact location is made by GPS and i can't go on that closed street, i could just before but it's noit possible to update that info in the app.Could oyu change that ? in a future release

Contextual road navigation elements
Waze (so far) does not fully account for overall road context in navigation. We've (ie. my partner and I) have found it treating all roads equally when picking a route, whether urban, rural, wide, narrow, usually parrtially blocked by parked cars, etc. So, I suggest adding a set of options to the system and the navigation algorithm which allows weighting by road type. This could be selected or deselected manually by the user, with some default setting sets (ie. "Prefer Highways", "The Scenic Route", etc).
Based on roads we've used, we suggest the following classifications:
Highway

Only report and show hazards / etc on your side of the road
When viewing the map or receiving alerts, add an option to only report items on the side of the road you are driving and/or you are routed on. As a "reverse commuter" I constantly see hazards on my route but they are usually on the other side. It makes viewing the map for issues very difficult, almost unusable.

Popup messages for multiple road reports
On the way home tonight, Waze alerted me to several road problems ahead (police, stopped vehicles, etc.). The reports were in such close succession (less than a mile apart) that the popup message for the first report was still on screen when the popup message for the second report appeared. Unfortunately, the second popup was on top so I could no longer see any information about the first report. When displaying multiple popup messages simultaneously, Waze should layer them such that the hazard in closest proximity to you is on top, followed by the next closest, and so on. This…

Waze Unplanned Road Closure Alerts
Would it be possible for Waze developers to notify user of an unplanned route closure the moment point A and destination are entered? Having entered work destination (using multiple interstates), ware tried to reroute me may times to alternate roads - the MOMENT I logged on. It turned out the Interstate was closed 15 miles ahead, and I was stuck for 2 hours. If Waze knows the road has an issue along the route, an alert upon destination entry (like IMRIX) would be most helpful.
