After a turn, it'd be nice if the distance before the next turn is said. something like "turn right and go straight for 5 miles"

Average Speed Zones: Exit summary and speed limit compliance alert
Waze does a great job alerting drivers when entering and driving through Average Speed Zones. However, once we exit the zone, the alert simply disappears. Since Waze tracks the exact distance, entry, and exit times, it has all the data to calculate the driver's actual average speed for that specific section.
It would be extremely helpful if Waze provided a brief summary alert upon exiting the zone. For example: "You completed the average speed zone. Your average speed was 135 km/h (Limit: 140 km/h)." If the driver exceeded the average limit, a warning could be triggered so they know they might receive a fine.
This would give drivers peace of mind and better awareness of their driving habits in speed-enforced regions.

Simplify removing a destination from drive history
Sometimes you need to remove a place from drive history and search again before getting an updated pin for routing.
Per a thread in Discuss, sometimes you have to remove navigation history from your Privacy settings to get rid of all history of a place.
Removing a destination from drive history should remove it from the app completely in one step. You shouldn’t have to navigate through settings to Privacy then Recent locations to remove it.
"Drive suggestions logic is handled by a server, not by a mobile device. Once the server saved the location name (before changing it in WME) it remained and was not refreshed after the change.
Deleting recent drives from mobile client is mostly to declutter the view, and they still remain in our servers and in privacy Settings>Privacy>Navigation history (they are however also removed from Settings>Privacy>Recent locations).
Deleting navigation history from settings deletes all the drives, from mobile client and from our servers. In such case, suggestions (from the server) would be deleted as well and then navigating to the same place couple more times would trigger “fresh” suggestion with the correct name taken from the WME."

*NEW* hazard notification for roadkill
Dear my WAZE PPL
First, I want to thank waze for creating such an outstanding navigation tool that helps so many drivers stay informed and safe on the road. I truly appreciate how the app continuously evolves to meet the needs of its users.
I’d like to suggest a potential improvement to the “Hazards” feature. While the current options, such as “Objects on Road,” are helpful, I believe there’s an opportunity to make the app even more informative and user-friendly by adding an alert specifically for roadkill or deceased animals on the road.
In my area, it’s common to encounter wildlife-related hazards on the road, which can pose significant safety concerns, especially at night or in areas with limited visibility. A dedicated alert, such as “Animal Hazard” or “Animal on Road,” could help address this issue while maintaining respectful and inclusive terminology. This phrasing would cover both live animals and roadkill, ensuring clarity without being off-putting.
I hope you’ll consider this enhancement to further improve Waze’s utility and safety for its users, Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
FonsoDear my WAZE PPL

מצב 'משאית' בהגדרות פרטי רכב
צריך שיהיה בהגדרות פרטי רכב מצב משאית שאז האפליקציה לא תפנה לרחובות קטנים מאוד, ולא למתחת גשרים נמוכים לפי הגדרת גובה המשאית וגם לא לרחובות שאין כניסה למשאית, וגם איסור פרסה למשאית

Tow Mode
I often tow a trailer for work, and use Waze to go everywhere - but often time saving routes will take me down side streets and laneways that are narrow and difficult to navigate with a trailer. Same would apply for touring with a caravan.
It would be awesome to have a mode that minimizes tight turns, side streets or intersections without traffic lights.

Use Traffic Light as Reference to Turn
Tell users where to make a turn such as "at the light" or "the next light" like Apple Maps. This is better than suggesting to turn in # of miles.

Country-based voices sorting
Why do users have to scroll an incredibly long list to choose which voice should guide them? How many users frequently use another language for their voices in the client?
Let's make the list country-based or, at least, configurable.For example: I'm Italian, I would like to have the three ITA voices on top of the list, but maybe you can't change the list based on positioning, so let give me the opportunity to sort my favourite voices manually on top!

Android Auto - quick actions
It would be nice to have the ability to create a "quick actions" group.
For example, to report the pothole I need to make three actions: 1) click on the "chat" button, 2) select "event on the road", and 3) "report a pothole". It's unsafe. If I would be able to add this action to the "quick actions", I would only need to click this button. It would be safer, and it would motivate users to report these problems more often. "Quick actions group" might be places next to the "chat" icon.27 votes -

Adapter le trajet et la vitesse pour la conduite accompagnée
Bonjour, pourquoi ne pas ajouter une fonction incluant la conduite accompagnée pour éviter les routes les plus difficiles et modifier les limitations de vitesse en fonction de la vitesse maximum. Par exemple : lorsque la limitation est de 130 km/h, la limitation de vitesse pour la conduite accompagnée est de 110km/h.

Search along my route
When searching for a restaurant when I'm en route, don't tell me about the restaurant 2 exits behind me, tell me about the ones ahead and along my route. Maybe suggest a place along my route in an estimated time frame. i.e., look for a place to eat lunch between noon and 1p or breakfast at around 7am
Similar look ahead for hotels or stores.27 votes -
electric vehicle mode germany
Der electric vehicle mode ist bisher nur in der USA und Kanada verfügbar. Europa wird schon bald signifikant steigende Zulassungszahlen für BEV ausweisen, Google Maps hat Ladestationen schon als POI ausgerollt. Auf geht's, Waze, das schafft ihr locker.

Add a NEW 'Police Notice' flag for the "MIDDLE" of the road!
On Waze, when flagging a Police, there's currently a 'POLICE' flag, for the current road side you're on; 'OTHER SIDE' flag, when the Police is on the other side of the road; but NO 'MIDDLE' (of the road) flag!
There are many instances where Police park (or hide) on the middle of a two-way route or major roadway.
Currently, selecting either of the two available options leaves the other side "unflagged" until a driver from the other side flags the same Police.Creating a "MIDDLE (of the road)" flag, will not only place a Police flag on the (middle) of road, but will AUTOMATICALLY prompt/notify drivers on BOTH SIDES of the two-way route or major roadway!
Additionally, the "MIDDLE" option could also be used on most residential or local two-way roads, regardless of where the Police is parked. (I mean, on a two-way local road, the Police will turn the direction you're headed regardless which way you're headed on said road!)On Waze, when flagging a Police, there's currently a 'POLICE' flag, for the current road side you're on; 'OTHER SIDE' flag, when the Police is on the other side of the road; but NO 'MIDDLE' (of the road) flag!
