Vehicle on left side of highway
Please add an option to report a vehicle stopped on the LEFT side of the highway. Often a Wazer will report a car on the side of the road, but it’s actually against the left wall and it’s confusing and dangerous.

Destination not shown after a voice search
Hi team. Thank for mantain Waze. In previously versions, after a voice search for a destination site, waze shows me a list of possible results or a unique destination if it was accurate. The destination address appears in the map. In latest versions, if waze found a unique result i cant see it to validate if it is tbe result i am waiting for.

Have Waze check the hours of operation to ensure you will arrive while destination is open.
I went to Lowes on Sunday, only to find out that the closest store to me was closed on Sundays (Blue Laws). There were 2 other Lowes stores that were close by that were open.
Suggestion: When entering a destination that has the hours of operation completed, have Waze tell driver that the location is closed, or that it will be closed at ETA. Driver can then override the message and still go to destination, or pick a new destination of same type or name. Of course, this would only work for locations that have hours of operation.

Remove the destination suggestion box
Upon startup of Waze in Android auto there is a destination suggestion box. Please remove this! This was provided after a more recent update a few months ago. What often happens is the suggestion box does not go away. It seems to get stuck. Oftentimes it prohibits me from actually entering a destination. There is an X to close the window. However the window will sometimes go away automatically after a little time. However pressing the X will often not work to close the window. This suggestion box is more problematic than helpful.

Waze navigation is deteriorating. Asking directions to a nearby town, Waze chooses a street name miles away, complete nonsense
Offer major destination first, little side roads as a last resort

Finding stops close by enroute to your destination
First, I am a highly experienced WAZE user and customer. I help with road hazards and posting to help other drivers, as much as I can. On a recent trip from New Jersey to Florida, using WAVE constantly, we wanted to find the upcoming Rest Stops or Gas Stations, that were upcoming ahead and "enroute" to our destination. I found it hard to believe that this feature does not exist?! When I was looking for a car wash or gas station, it gave every destination, all over the place in a circumference, behind us, 40 miles away...instead of…

Trip planning option removed from "Go to destination" window.
PLEASE bring back the "trip planning option" ("drive at xx arrive at xx") to the main GO TO DESTINATION window !!!
The previous version was better because this option is very useful and important when going to a destination. Searching for it in the main menu is a waste of time...and because we don't always plan a destination.Sometimes, when I want to go to a destination and I don't need to go now, I look for it and I watch the trafic jam. If I need to wait a few minutes/hours, I plan the route.
Thanks for…

want to create link on website, that make Waze destination point by clicking on it (using smartphone browser)
Invent URN format like waze:// and register waze to handle it. Then will be possible to create Waze destinations on websites to easy navigate.
Same URN can be used as easy destination sharing with friends.5 votes -
Be able to connect a parking lot with another address or destination
When you edit a map you should be able to associate the places the visitor should park, especially if the lot is owned by the destination or there is a parking discount.

Do not autoclear the final destination when (almost) reached
With a recent update, when entering your final destination, Waze thinks you made it and clears the route. Sometimes I pass the point close, but there is no parkingspace in the streets, so i have to continu my road and a re-route. Would be nice if the end-destination is not cleared so it automatically reroutes you back.

Re-enable Other Side Police Reporting
Otherside Police Reporting- This was probably one of the best features of the App- other than the same side regular police notification. It gives a warning for less traveled roads that may have a Waze user traveling in the other direction on a less traveled road whereas a same way traveler has not yet passed and left an Alert. PLEASE BRING THAT FEATURE BACK ASAP!

update alerts for other side of road
I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs to…19 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Be able to show an accident or hazard for the opposite side of the road. Many times, we'll see it on the opposite side.
Many times, we see accidents on the opposite but when we report it, it says our side.

1) Insert the complete destination location above the data of missing kilometers and time remaining to reach the destination, in practice the destination is no longer visible after having inserted it unless you reduce the screen in search of the arrival point.
1) Inserire la località di destinazione completa sopra ai dati di chilometri mancanti e tempo mancante per raggiungere la meta in pratica la meta non è più visibile dopo averla inserita se non riducendo la schermata in cerca del punto d’arrivo.
