Identify drunk driver.
Tonight I clearly saw a person who was driving drunk and was driving erraticly, swerving, etc. Identifying this for police officers would be huge so that action can be taken to get these driver's - whatever the situation (drunk or otherwise) to keep other drivers safe.

boston accent
You should have a boston accent choice. Just make sure it's actually someone from here doing the accent. Then you could add accents from other states as well.

improvement for the users
while standing, sometimes Waze thinks we changed course, or decides we are on the opposit side and recalculates a achange in course, and it's realy confusing.

travel planning option
I know I want to make a journey tomorrow. I have no idea how long it might take. Would love to be able to enter a start point and end point and get an idea of how long it would take if I was doing the journey now. Not exact or guaranteed for tomorrow, I know, but a good rough estimate.

Increase the contrast / Change colors at the top + Larger alert when route changes
A couple of times I missed the change of route because the alert it too minimal. I drive with no waze sound, so I do not hear the change. I think this is a critical improvement because of the time you can loose when you miss the change. Thanks!

"Check on" existing planned drives
The new "planned drives" feature is wonderful, but each time I try to see if the suggested departure route has changed, it creates an unwanted duplicate planned drive.

Import and upload custom car icons
I would like to be able to import gifs to be used in place of the arrow. This would allow anyone to use an image or drawing of their car rather than one of the few provided ones. There could even be an option to submit to an online catalog.

Fix Volume bug
You can only adjust the volume (using the hard buttons) while Waze is vocally communicating with you. Between alerts/navigation, pressing the volume buttons does nothing

Using the smartphone's front camera for alert about driver's tiredness
In Android there is a feature named "smart stay" which allows the smartphone to recognize, using the front camera, if the user is watching the screen (in order to turn off the screen when not in use) - see
http://www.androidcentral.com/how-use-smart-stay-galaxy-s3I wonder whether it would be possible to create a similar function in Waze, that would recognize (by visually recognizing when the eyes close for longer than a fraction of second) and alert if the driver falls asleep. If this is possible (even partially), it can save lives.

I have a problem and cannot solve it because I cannot contact Waze: I receive a verificaion code, enter it, Waze thinks it has found me. I click "Yes it's me" and then I get a "Sorry, despite all our efforts, we are unable to verify your account. It must be lost somewhere in the stratosphere..."
Then, I am supposed to create a new account and lose my 13000 or so points !
This is inadmissible. There should be a way for me to contact you and this "lost somewhere" be fixed.

Get a President Obama voice
There's an incredible Obama impersonator on Fiverr.com who should do the voice of the POTUS navigating! I would love that!

Record traffic warnings
How about the option to record our warnings? "There's a large piece of wood in the center lane." "There's an eighteen-wheeler on the right shoulder." "Everyone has to move to the left lane to go around construction."
Then, Waze would notify us - "Hazard reported one-half mile ahead - [playback recorded warning]."
Two things would be accomplished - the warning would be very specific, and it would require less attention diverted from driving.5 votes -
unsafe streets
It would be very helpful to know if you are entering to a dangerous area meaning like a ghetto or some place where is dangerous to be driving at certain time or know that you can get assaulted by knowing this you can change route to a safer one.
Sometimes you get into streets that are very dangerous for saving some minutes on your route.
Being able to report dangerous areas would be great and safer for driving.
I know a lot of people talking about this on the city as an issue of waze.
