Speedcam reporting in Client.
Please add possibillity to set speed limit of road when reporting speed cameras. This will make it 10 times easier to get quality data. Perhaps even when reporting the speed cam, an quick enter speed limit dialogue with the road signs of the country. Something that could be downloaded with the voice files perhaps?

New adult looking display... The update looks like a child designed it
The new update on Android really killed Waze in my opinion. I like the new button layout and placements, but there are a few problems with the display.
a) Color scheme - Looks like a child colored it in. I would like not so vibrant colors and more professional looking.
b) The view port - It seems to show much more of the road you have already passed than it did before the update. I'm not concerned with the road I have already driven on, I would much rather see more ahead.
c) Road Thickness - WAY too thick!!! At…12 votes -
"Avoid" option for single track roads with passing places
When travelling in Devon, Cornwall or anywhere where there is a lot of unspoiled countryside, I suggest Waze make available an option in the Navigation Settings to "AVOID" Single Track Roads With Passing Places.

waze for motorcycle
There should be an option on waze to use motorcycle or even bikes.
I like to use waze but when I'm riding a moto it shows alternative ways to avoid traffic. The problem is that when riding moto I don't get stuck in traffic.
And if I use waze when riding I'm afraid to trick the system and send informations that there is no traffic on the road when actually there is.21 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already has Motorcycle Mode included in the app. To change your vehicle type, tap Settings > Car Details > Vehicle type.

Have Waze automatically detect your speed on major roads
I drive the same busy highway every morning (I-64) here in the Hampton Roads of Virginia. A major section of it is under construction. Instead of passengers and/or drivers taking their eyes off the road to manually enter moderate/heavy/standstill traffic, it would be nice for Waze to automatically detect it and publish it to the map since there are enough people using Waze in this area. I'm sure an algorithm can be written that can detect Wazers within a 1-5 mile radius that are traveling at a particular speed and be able to automatically display the 'traffic speed' for…

in honor of
Dear Waze Team,My name is Moshe Alalouf and I am an inventor and entrepreneur with a passion for road safety. I am writing to you to propose an idea for a new accident prevention application, which is based on an algorithm I developed. The purpose of the application is to alert drivers automatically and in real time about dangerous situations and significantly reduce the risk of accidents.
As we know, road accidents are one of the main causes of injuries and death in the world. For example, according to a report by the World Health Organization,…

Shortcut to settings while navigating
I have one major piece of feedback. While one is driving and let’s say they decide during their route to avoid highways or toll roads, the user must stop the route, go to the settings, change the settings, reinsert the address and go. On Google Maps, there’s a shortcut to these settings so you don’t have to take all the those steps. Your app has to be safer to use. Let’s be real, people don’t always pull over to use their phone. When I’m in the middle of traffic and I have to go through all your steps to…

Open up Waze Carpool for Trinidad and Tobago to reduce Traffic
Big benefits to bring Carpool to Trinidad and Tobago to:-
-- reduce the number of cars on the road during rush hour traffic (5am-9am) & (3pm-7pm). It is grid-lock at these times and can take up to 3 hours to get into and out of the capital (Port of Spain)
-- car ownership is prohibitively expensive
-- public transportation is risky
-- public transportation is unreliable
-- be environmentally conscious to the earth by being more economical moving peopleHelp our little paradise to become better and more responsible. Help to bring Waze Carpool to Trinidad and Tobago

Ability to enter when a lane is closed due or a turn is temporarily blocked
Need the ability to identify temporary lane closures as well as temporary turn prevention due to any activity. I have experienced this a number of times where a lane is closed off for some type of activity but Waze doesn’t allow me to report it to x pet for saying Construction on road when it isn’t always construction. Sometimes lanes are closed temporarily for events being held in the streets or even a right turn isn’t allowed because of road closures or other work being performed.

Notice Dialogs
Notices (car on side of road, etc.) that have a 'not there' or 'thanks' should allow tapping on either half of the whole dialog rather than just in the smaller buttons at the bottom of the dialog. It takes too much 'attention' to hit the button while driving.

PLEASE develop a physical device that has Waze - desperately needed for on-the-go road warriors. Battery life is so drained by gps. Please make a seperate device.

State line
When crossing into a different state it would be nice to receive an audible alert and/or a pop up notification that you have crossed into a new state like Google maps does. When on a long road trip sometimes we don’t know what state we have crossed into and it would be helpful to get notified.

Hot keys on the map screen
Have the ability to choose and add as hot keys to the map screen things like, car on shoulder, police, debris in roadway are examples... make them configurable to your most common choices... Currently while driving it takes 3 different clicks to post about a car on the shoulder, or debris in the road......hot key buttons set on the side of the screen Would help keep the eyes on the road and ensure post are made in time about the hazards..

Additional fields in Tollbooth hazard
It would be great to add some fields to Tollbooth hazard like "name", "price" and "payment methods", so that Waze can warn (on screen and TTS) about the next toll on the Wazer route and, at least, its name and price.

REVERSIBLE ROADS
There are some countries (At least in Santiago, Chile and Mexico City where I live) that due to a high traffic times, some of the main streets gets REVERSIBLE, meaning that from certain times of the day the regular way of the street is REVERSED so the traffic can be more fluid. I would like to propose the facility of making REVERSIBLE roads

WaterWaze - River Safety
I am a kayaker and I know I see a LOT of folks on Facebook trying to figure out where items of importance/danger are on their paths - sweepers (trees that have fallen over the water but not gone under), strainers (trees that have fallen into the water, and other debris, as well as places that are good to put-in and take out, or such places that might not be accessible anymore. Water levels/gauges, dams, bridges, shallow spots, dangerous spots... the ability for someone on the water to note any of these things and have it available (especially if there's…
