Displaying streets names
Please let us choose weather to display the streets names or not. When driving abroad I just want to get quickly to the destination. I don't care what are the streets names along the route.

Road hazard alert authorities
Extreme weather conditions cause thousands of multi car accidents each year.resulting in increase in auto insurance. Add ability to not only report weather hazardous conditions, after a certain number are reported within a specificity area, notify appropriate authorities to close roads. Adding the ability to a view real time weather on waze is much needed so we don’t have to switch apps.

When marking something on the map you should be able to add info re: what ur posting
Add the ability to define what exactly you are advising others of on the map. For example; instead of just police in general adding the ability to define weather it is a speed camera or an RBT etc

Partner with TV and radio so that they can report what the Wazers are posting.
My area has poor traffic reporting. I think it would to everyone's advantage if radio and tv stations would report directly from what Waze is having posted. They could incorporate this much the same as a weather report.

Additional reporting options.
Two immediately spring to mind:
1. when reporting a weather hazard, it would be great to be able to report "sunstrike".
2. the only way to report a stopped car is as an object on the side of the road. The only hazards on the road are things like construction. I have had multiple occassions where I have come across a vehicle stopped on the road. These have not been an accident, rather they have been due to breakdown. An option in the "on road/in lane" category to advise of a stopped vehicle would be great.I love the app…

Sunglare warning
Every morning, there are so many unnecessary accidents and traffic delays because people don't know how to put on sunglasses in the morning. Having a sunglare warning...and one that tells people to wear their sunglasses...might help...so people don't seemed shocked when they come around a curve and the sun is in their face again. Makes driving to work so frustrating when people seemed shocked every time. Please please please add a Sunglare Weather Hazard soon.

Whiteout conditions
A report for winter whiteout conditions would be extremely useful and a great safety feature for those in the north that deal with these weather conditions.
Whiteouts are the single most dangerous winter driving we run into and they can come out of nowhere and effect very narrow sections of highway causing near zero visibility leading to pileups.5 votes -
Differentiate "dirt road" of "4x4 trail".
"Dirt road / 4x4 trail" should be called "4x4 trail" only, and keep the same navigation capabilities as now, only to be allocated as such the badly damaged roads that only 4x4 vehicles are able to travel it.
In the "street category" should be added a new type of segment called "dirt road", which would be passable streets for any vehicle but their ability to circulate them may vary due to various external factors such as weather. Because of this, they should suffer some level of penalty in the routing, and allows the "avoid dirt roads" in the application…55 votes -

Better iPad interface.
The iPad interface is a bit cumbersome to use while driving. I find many of the buttons are too small. I have my iPad docked in a RAM mount next to the stick shift, so its right next to my shift hand.
Different screens appear in different sizes (like the event selection screen is cut in half when reporting a hazard or similar).
Also, display of speed and similar information in the lower right should be larger, much like the turn-by-turn directions in the lower left.
I would also appreciate any prompt buttons to be larger. If the buttons could…11 votes -
