Change the "watch out" alert.
I think it would be beneficial to change the way Waze gives alerts. The automated voice says "Watch out" and it's for a vehicle on the shoulder like 2 miles a head of you, or for a cop or something in the middle of the freeway. When Waze alerts about these issues, it always makes my heart drop. Imagine you are on the rode at night and your passenger, says "WATCH OUT" very loud, it would frighten anyone, and the last person you want to be scared is the driver. Maybe something less urgent, for non urgent alerts, like "alert"…

Please bring back the map colors. I'm tired of looking at gray and blue.

Put app in Tesla S
Partner with Tesla to have Waze added (or replace Google Maps). I have a Tesla S and the customized Google maps that comes with the car is often VERY wrong about directions and traffic. I end up using Waze on my phone to find the best alternative routes. Give Elon Musk a call!

Make alternative routes tappable directly on the map like GMaps.
Hoping for tappable alternative routes on the map, which also shows time difference from the suggested route. This was a feature I liked a lot in GMaps.

Bridge opening
We have a lot of draw/lift bridges in the area and it would be nice if we could either report the bridge opening as a "Wazer" or if there was a way to gather that info from the web to auto generate on our app.

Toll Road prompt
After selecting the destination, Waze should prompt (as his famous brother Tom does) if toll roads should be allowed or not. In this way I could leave the option "Toll Roads" unchecked (it should be also removed) and before each journey I can choose depending on the case which route to follow...
(please forgive language mistakes :D )

share location / destination as text URL and not hyperlink for those who wisely send TEXT only email
otherwise the click "here" is merely a word.. and a frustration to the simple

Add more levels too Avoid Highway option
With the Avoid Highway option off, Waze is way too aggressive in routing to freeways. The the Avoid Highway on, all types of highways are avoided from minor to freeway. There should be additional options to Avoid Freeways, Avoid Major Highways and Freeways.
Yes, Waze is supposed to figure out the best route based on information without this level of direction, but in fact it does not, at least in some areas. These options would allow some user input based on experience in directing the routing.
This would be especially useful for trips that include multiple type of environments such…

Driving directions on virtual cockpit
Hey Wazers, I have found out, that when you use Apple Maps app through CarPlay, it is able to transfer information about next driving direction (for example "in 100m turn right" and an arrow) to the control unit of my car and it then shows it to me on my virtual cockpit. Since anothe iOS app can do this, I hope others should be able to, arent they? It will be really good to implement this...

Stop blocking excessive reporting
There are a huge number of pot holes in Sydney due to the floods and rainfall. I was reporting each and every one until I got flagged for excessive reporting noting my account would be blocked from reporting. If this is designed to be a community app, remove this feature blocking people so we can save damage to our vehicles and potentially save lives.

Road Condition Rating/Grades
Showing potholes is a great feature especially in snowy climate. It would also be great to rate the road and conditions. Such as a block feature or an avoidance feature. I traveled 20mph on a road label 50mph due to how terrible the conditions was, it felt like I hit a speed bump every 40 yards. I would label this road a "D", if I could avoid these roads like a less than "C" feature, that would be awesome. User ratings paired with GPS acceleration compared to the speed limit could really help avoid these disastrous neglected road and pick…

Add route style 'safe and simple' & 'eco-drive'
Selecting 'safe and simple' route will navigate you with safe wide roads without to many small cuves and turns. It might nog be the fastest of shortest but will avoid danger. Selecting 'eco-drive' caculates the most environmental friendly route and minimizes fuel consumption and pollution, just add you car and engine type in the settings menu and Waze will calculate your eco-ride.

Allow alternate start point
For trip planning purposes would like to see preferred rout from A to B, rather than wait until I start the trip. i.e. It's 8 am today on Tues, what rout and calculated times would Waze report for a trip from Baltimore MD to Alexandria Va, when I'm planning the trip while in LA.

Remove alleys as streets or destinations
I live and drive a lot in Chicago. Driving for Lyft waze constantly routes me through alley ways. Which is illegal. And half the time it puts my point to navigate to in an alley and not on the Main Street. This is a major problem and issue not only for me. But for my customers as well.
