Avoid car only roads
Sometimes a car is towing a trailer and they're not allowed on the same roads as only cars. It would be nice to be able to hit a button and not have to worry about driving down a road you're not allowed to be on.

Give warning when routing through ferries
Hi,
Currently Waze gives you a warning when routing through toll roads, but not when routing through ferries where the majority are also paid. It would be nice that Waze also then gives a warning when routing with ferries.
Thanks

TOWNS should be able to submit DO NOT USE THIS ROAD on certain roads
Towns should have a way of reporting problems with rerouting. In the case of many small towns intersecting two major highways, not all roads are appropriate for heavy traffic.
Towns should have a way to “prevent through traffic” on Waze, since Waze users totally blow off “no thru traffic” signs!
For example, small towns still using one lane bridges need to be able to prevent over use and over-weight; afternoon traffic blocking residential roads just because someone is trying to bypass an on-ramp; especially tricks using small town roads not equipped for big trucks and curbs, lawns,…

Speak command icon near report a road condition.
I use my iphone in landscape mode and wave and 3 fingers don't work safely. A button on the main nav page near the report icon would be great to initiate the speak command

Prefer main roads
Please install main roads button, so in cities I take main roads instead of all those side roads just to save a minute but burn way more petroleum and drive zip zag. So if the roads will be similar time waze would preafare main roads, if time would be different fore 5 minutes and more it would take side roads. This would help especially on long journies, we're I can not zoom in every little city all the time.

Have the correct 407 toll price
At the moment Waze is showing a price of $13.24 to take the 407 from Pearson Airport to Brock Rd. But if you look at the price on the 407 app it shows $38.50. Please update the prices!

Turn reminder if been on road with no turns for a while
I was on a road that had no turns for about 10 miles and then missed my turn as had not looked at Waze for some time. I have notifications off but thought would be a good idea to set Waze so that if you have not turned for some time could get it to make a noise or something to remind you of the turn up ahead.

Narrow street flags
Here in Pittsburgh, we're a city of hills, bluffs, and narrow, winding roads, and listening to Waze help navigate me has led to $400 in repairs and 3 near accidents in the past 2 months by taking me through poorly maintained streets and roads so narrow that, while not legally-required to be one way, nevertheless make for perilous travel with few opportunities to turn around and try another route.
If users or editors could flag narrow streets and if an option was labeled to avoid these streets, similar to the options to avoid toll roads, it would…

You have our clinic location wrong. Institute of Sports and spines is located at 1566 Wynnum Road, Tingalpa Qld 4173, not at 820 Old Cleveland Road, Carina Qld 4152. You need to update your map. Additionally, trying to sign up to an account to edit the map is not easy at all.

The accuracy of the GPS location has diminished significantly. Often Waze shows me on a side road when I am still on a highway.
The accuracy of the GPS location has diminished significantly. Often Waze shows me on a side road when I am still on a highway. Please improve this functionality.
Also, often your server does not have enough capacity during rush hour and devices cannot connect to your network to get routing and road info.

To mark street - Kids are playing
Dear Waze Maps,
My friends and I have come across a problem. This problem is kids playing on a community road/street. This presents a risk to kids , drivers , and property. For example , a kid who is playing on the road could get injured by a car hitting him/her. The car could also swerve and hit another car , injuring the driver and/or car. Another possibility is for the car to hit property like : signs , decorations , houses , or light posts.
A person who is familiar with the road usually doesn't use Waze maps…
211 votesWe plan to work on marking the street with playing kids in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

I'd like to turn off the notification for a car on the side of the road but still listen to Rodger Federer's voice
The Car on the side of the road ding is so loud and obnoxious that I don't want to hear it. I still want to listen to the voice guidance. Please, either get rid of the ding or give me the choice to turn off alerts and still have the voice guidance.

Hi,
I live in Northern Virginia in the Washington DC suburbs. Many of my trips take me around the DC Beltway and on other roads that have "Hot Lanes." The Hot Lanes generally operate next to the regular lanes, but being toll lanes, sometimes move faster, which is why some people use them.
Most of the time, I don't use Hot Lanes because most of the time, they don't get me there appreciably faster and are not worth the money. There have, however, been times when I would have liked to have known how much time I could save…

When WAZE reports debris in the road it should say left, right, or center. I had a bumper in the center lane of the interstate and missed it
Want WAZE to say where debris is located in the road. Right lane center or left. Then we would know to change lanes. Almost hit a bumper twice in the center lane at dusk would have been a major accident but thanks to WAZE I got past it. But a heads up for the lane would help. I was doing 75 on the interstate at the time
