Report temporary traffic lights using MapMate should generate a roadworks hazard not a UR
In the UK, when we have roadworks with an incursion onto the carriageway, they are often accompanied by temporary multi-way traffic lights. This allows the road to remain open, while controlling traffic flow over a narrow than normal bit of open road.
Since the introduction of MapMate reporting, we have noticed an increase in MapMate URs coming in referring to the presence of temporary traffic lights. This should not generate a UR, and should generate a "roadworks" hazard report.
I have raised this on the Waze Discuss MapMate thread, but it has been suggested that this feature is not on…

Aviso de Lombadas e Buracos

Suicide hotline direct link
A direct link to suicide hotline or form of a helpline for people in a mental crisis. As a retired firefighter and now a part time incident manager I see and have seen many incidents that quick access to something like this may help prevent a life changing event.

Turn off pothole notification separately
In Hungary, the road conditions are often terrible, especially on the route I take daily. Every few meters, a pothole is marked, and the app loudly alerts me each time.
It would be amazing if there was an option to turn off pothole alerts separately. I know I could disable the entire “Hazards” category, but I don’t want to, because on my daily route, there are often incidents like animals on the road, and I would like to keep getting alerts for those.

Sharing construction site position
As a professional working on mobile construction sites, I could signal the start of a project, sharing my real-time location with other users as an alert (danger). I could stop sharing my location once the project is finished

"Leave earlier" setting that changes time to leave
Frequently I want to "arrive" 15 minutes early so I have time to find a parking spot, park my car, and then walk to the destination.
Because of this, I'd like to see a feature that allows me to specify an additional amount of time to add to the estimated drive time when determining what time I'll need to leave.
Ideally, there would be a setting to enable / disable the feature, and, when enabled, applied a specified amount of time to every planned drive. There should also be an override on a per planned drive basis.
The "Leave earlier"…

Opção para evitar avenidas principais
Atualmente, o aplicativo permite evitar rodovias e pedágios, porém muitas vezes os maiores congestionamentos ocorrem justamente em vias arteriais e avenidas de grande fluxo dentro das cidades. Em horários de pico, essas vias concentram semáforos, cruzamentos movimentados, corredores de ônibus e alto volume de veículos, tornando o deslocamento mais lento e imprevisível.
A proposta é que o sistema ofereça uma alternativa que priorize ruas coletoras e secundárias, reduzindo a exposição a avenidas com histórico recorrente de congestionamento, mesmo que isso resulte em um trajeto ligeiramente mais longo.
Essa funcionalidade atenderia usuários que preferem maior fluidez e constância no deslocamento, em…

Lane-specific pothole alerts (show which lane the pothole is in)
A feature that allows users to report what lane a pothole (or other hazard) is in so that drivers can avoid hazards, vehicle damage, or bottlenecks in traffic that can happen as new vehicles approach the hazard and attempt to minimize impact.

Always-On" Dynamic Hazard Progress Bar on Main Navigation Screen.
I am proposing the integration of a persistent, dynamic progress bar located directly above the bottom ETA panel. The goal is to allow drivers to anticipate upcoming road events without needing to interact with the screen.
Key Features:
Always Visible: This bar should be a permanent fixture of the main navigation UI, removing the need to open sub-menus or the "Route Overview" to see upcoming hazards.
Real-Time Tracking: A vehicle marker moving toward alert icons (police, hazards, crashes) to provide an instant visual cue of how close an event is.
Enhanced Safety: By keeping this information constantly visible, the driver…1 vote -

Bonjour
Serait il possible d'ajouter un mode "caravane" ? La vitesse et la durée du trajet ne sont pas les mêmes que sans.

You should add again the option to text coments
Hi. It's important for drivers to be able to include text messages in their reports. Currently, this isn't possible in Lima, Peru. I'm sure the community in Peru is very unhappy with this new update.

Shut Down UserVoice
Yes, the title is clickbait. But that really is the end goal!
Let’s get straight to the point: UserVoice has done an excellent job of centralizing Waze community suggestions in a tool specifically designed for that purpose. However, after years of cumulative use, it has become clear that managing it has grown increasingly difficult.
And now, entering the scene: Discuss.
Discuss has opened up a whole new range of possibilities for community interaction. It is a technically modern platform, with a pleasant user experience and strong functional versatility.
There is no doubt that Discuss is capable of absorbing all…

Regional volunteers should be able to mark long term or recurring problems
Volunteers (i.e., the same folks who handle map reports) should have the ability to mark areas that have long term issues or are frequently reported for the same thing.
Example use cases:
Long term road construction
Construction over a long stretch of road where an individual report might not be in the right place for a Wazer to see
Regular lane blockages (e.g., when the outside lane of a road is available for parking at certain hours)
