car play - alternative routes info are truncated
When in carplay mode, alternative routes are not showed properly. Distance is truncated and toll information are not present. Moreover since few days you can't see alternative routes on the phone, so you can't these information at all.

I15 Fastrak - HOV Only
An option for Carpool Lanes that let you pay if single vehicle that shows if it is only HOV allowed. Example California I15 Fastrak you can pay and use the lane (with appropriate transponder) however, if it is marked HOV only then you are not allowed to use the lane unless 2+ however, by the time you go the optimal route that takes you the express lanes and if HOV only it would have been more expedient to go a back road. It would be nice to see if the Fastrak is HOV only or Toll Option.
3 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

Special calculation and result for motorcycle despite traffic jam
Hi all,
Sorry I do not want to create a duplicate but rather synthesize the idea (other posts talked about but are not totally clear)
It would be cool to create a special motorcycle calculation, for big towns with big traffic jam (ex. Paris-France...) :
the faster way, whatever, even if cars are bumpers to bumpers.Because even if you ride slowly between cars, it remains faster than another way (excepted if road is closed by police or whatever).
It should be possible to choose this kind after choosing destination. For exemple, it would be really practical to have, after…

Option to save at least 2 user settings/profiles
I would want to see an option to save at least 2 user settings. I switch back and forth between a car and a motorcycle.
I prefer the back roads and avoid toll roads when I am on the bike. And of course, the opposite when I am in a car.
It's such a hassle having to change the settings each and every time.
I would sometimes wonder why it hasn't led me to a highway when I am in a car, or why it did when I am on a bike. Then realize that I forgot to switch the…

avoid a specific part of the road or highway
I live just outside Milan and when I have to go further east, all navigators insist on taking the Brebemi motorway, which unfortunately is a very expensive toll road and does not save time. An option that allows you to say once and for all "Avoid that highway forever" or "Avoid part of the route" would be useful. it is not enough to set avoid highways, because it makes me avoid all highways, I just want to avoid one or more highways that I specify.

Remove 407 warnings
Please remove the alert "Caution Tool Road" when on or near the 407. I don't need to be reminded every 30 seconds that I am on a tool road. Also I was getting a caution on the 412. It is no longer a toll road.

Waze auf AppleWatch
Es wäre toll, wenn man die App auf den Smartwatches installieren könnte. Damit mein ich speziell die Apple Watch. Da könnte man dann alleine durch Vibrationen gewarnt werden. Das wäre sehr hilfreich und man müsste nicht mehr auf die App gucken und sich vielleicht vom Fahren ablenken. (:

Seperate Greenway and 267
As a NoVA User, it would be helpful to split up the Greenway in Loudoun County from the 267 Toll Road. Many of us willingly take 267, but want to avoid the fees of the Greenway. I have being directed around 28 to take the 267 entrances when I can save money and go 28 to 267. But I want to know how much time I can save if I pay for the Greenway.

Landscapes near you and you did not know about their existence
On an excursion in Europe between Germany and Austria and Switzerland, we reached our destination, like any destination. But it is also important to enjoy the road and breathtaking scenery. Sometimes it's worth stopping for a moment .. (That's how the idea came about)
Sharing landscape photos (located on / near the route I'm going through) of users will help those who do not know the area, reach the landscape that is on my route. Stop for a moment and watch from the vehicle and then continue on a trip
It will be possible to operate it as a feature…

Can you add a few colors to the police report feature?
Can you add a few colors to the police report feature? It will help with recognition. There are a lot of reports for Military police, toll etc. and it would be nice to be able to recognise the danger. Blue, dark green, light green should be sufficient.

A way for Waze to distinguish between travel in express lanes or regular lanes on I-90 (Kennedy Expressway) and similar Chicago area roads.
I would like to see a way for Waze to distinguish between travel in express lanes or regular lanes on I-90 (Kennedy Expressway) and similar Chicago area roads. These are not HOV or toll lanes. Waze will often route me to the express lanes, but the line to enter the lanes negates any benefit, so I bypass and take the regular lanes. Waze, however, thinks I'm in the express lanes, causing navigation errors and headaches. Otherwise, I'm very happy with Waze. Thanks.

Service Plaza’s
Show service plaza’s on the map. Primarily in states like PA that have limited access interstates / toll roads. It would be helpful to be able to ‘tag’ them to KwHG-8579-bADm determine driving time / distance (especially when your wife needs to *** just after you have passed a service plaza)

New Tolling on I66 in Northern Virginia/DC
Hi there. I am sure you are aware of this, but soon here in the DC area, specifically on the I66 roadway, dynamic tolling will begin soon. Google maps does not quite yet have that in the map itself. Given that these tolls will be quite burdensome, alternate routes will be required and therefore an option to "avoid tolls" will be needed for the stretch of road on I66 from the beltway to DC. Thank you .

Avoid a specific road
I've seen a number of posts regarding this, and myself have wanted this on various occasions for a number of different reasons. The alternatives (avoid highway, avoid toll, avoid dirt) are useful in many cases, but there are also many cases where they simply don't serve the actual need.
For example, this reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/waze/comments/6vfd6m/can_i_stop_waze_from_rerouting_or_select_a/) is from a user that wants to specifically avoid the Capital Beltway (I-495). Not because it's a highway, and not because of a perceived inability for Waze to determine traffic, but just as a personal preference. As another example, sometimes when driving…

Route options on Car Play
When connected to car play, I cannot choose a route, Waze does it for me. Sometimes it chooses routes I would not choose. Either poor areas of a city, poor roads, lots of side streets, toll roads, etc. I’d like to choose my route from at least 2 or 3 options vs none. Thank you.
