Off-road Trail Map Capability, the road less traveled.
There are a couple of very expensive off-road trail GPS devices for State and non OHV areas but I would love to see WAZE get into at least BLM/OHV and Fire road type of mapping.
Way points and even names of the trails. I live in California where there is many trails that the state regulates along with adopted programs from off road clubs. I'd buy an upgraded app for my WAZE if this was an option.

Option to automatically disable WiFi
When transitioning from WiFi to 3G or vice versa, Waze often loses a connection and becomes useless, requiring us to restart the app. I imagine this would be a problem for anyone who drives by a wireless network that they use often (home, work, school, etc.) This could be avoided by giving the user the option to automatically disable WiFi connections within Waze. This option would prevent users from having to disable WiFi before starting Waze every time.

RV routes
I use Waze vigorously, however, in the summer of vacation time we adventure out in our RV. It would be helpful to have routes provided by selecting the vehicle type as an RV, and using roads specifically safe for an RV/18 wheeler truck.
These vehicles are not designed for small narrow roads, and would need to have the safest route provided possible.
Is it possible that we can have better options for the vehicle type, and this way Waze can make a suggested route specifically for said vehicle type? I honestly believe this would increase the amount of users for…

Please add an Electric Motorcycle vehicle type!
You have an option for Electric Vehicles, and for Motorcycles. But what about Electric Motorcycles?! I have a 2021 Zero SR/S - but there are many other models and brands of electric motorcycles now - LiveWire, Energica, Sondors, Surron, etc! Zero has been making electric motorcycles for ~13 years now in CA. Right now I have to choose whether I want EV relevant info, or motorcycle relevant info in the Waze app. Please consider adding a Electric Motorcycle vehicle type for us lucky users, in this growing market segment!

Pouvoir passer à différents modes voiture, vélo, caravane ou encore piéton.
Pouvoir passer à différents modes voiture, vélo, caravane ou encore piéton. Mon vieux Gps Mio le faisait... c'était pratique. Le mode taxi ne concerne qui dans l'état actuel ? Un mode caravane aiderait aussi bien les conducteurs avec une caravane ou les Camping-cars en permettant d'avoir des axes principaux, ce pour éviter la déconvenue de petites routes de campagne, pas toujours aisées pour circuler avec les attelages et je dirai même bien souvent un calvaire.

Please turn off the "You parked here" pop-up or at least give the option to disable it.
Stop trying to do too much!!! I don't need to know or share where I parked when I first start the app especially if I'm sitting in my car where I parked it. I want to enter my destination and go. If I want to share my location, I'll do so through the menu. Very annoying.

Integrate with Amazon Echo

Import map road closures from official sources
Automatically import road closures from official government sources available on the web.
In my area there are several government website that report road closures during storms or natural disasters. Scripts could be built to get the information from the web page, and automatically close/open/update road closures.

Make changes to the suggested route by touching the route I want on the map.
Sometimes I want to make a specific change to the route by touching the map. For example; if I touch and hold a place on the map to signal that I want to go via this road instead of the suggested road, but still remain within the general route chosen.

"alerts only" mode should include rerouting notifications
Currently, there are 3 sound modes, which is great. "On", "Off" and "Alerts Only". I use "On", when I've never been there before and "Alerts Only" during my daily commute. I love the Alerts Only mode for a daily commute. Problem is, sometimes Waze sees an issue ahead during my commute and only makes a screen notification. I'd really want to be alerted about that.
So I'd like "Alerts Only" to consider a rerouting notification as an alert and not 'normal' navigation instructions.

license plate reporting / review review system for bad drivers
Currently, there is no system of checks and balances for bad or dangerous drivers. If someone is driving recklessly, or dangerously (slamming on brakes, threatening people, road rage) the only recourse is 911, which doesn't always apply and would increase erroneous / wasteful emeergency calls which should be used for more important emergencies.
If the DMV won't listen, then I hope application developers like Waze, or someone else would implement this feature so that bad drivers can be tracked and reported via license plate in a community fashion.
Then hopefully, the DMV will do something and create a review program…

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…
