Add a report feature for disaster reporting so emergency responders have real time info
In today's Napa earthquake, it took many hours for emergency responders to collect, report and analyze data, do triage, etc. let the crowd report details of disaster events (type, severity, help requested, etc) and generate dashboards for emergency responders to see a summary and details of the data

Bluetooth power saving causes voice to be cut. Play custom sound file before.
Some phones and car radios have a power saving feature that mutes sound if no sound is played. Then, if a voice directive comes, it SHOULD be:
"in 100 meters, turn left"
but it IS:
"ers, turn left"So an option to let the user play a custom sound file befor every directive would be useful:
"[BING] ... in 100 meters, turn left."3 votesThanks for reaching out.

Please remove the daily limit on alerts.
Daily limit on map alerts for police and vehicles on shoulder is WAY too low. Please raise the limit. On a long trip of 600 miles i passed through major cities and the amount of alerts goes up of course. This limit should be related to the WAZE score for the user. The higher the points, the more alerts per day you can send.

Forward road-hazard reports to Highway Patrol
Sometimes I see the same dangerous road hazards day after day and I think local authorities would take care of it if Waze could only pass on the report (if only reports with a lot of "confirmations" from other Waze users).

Routing quality has plummeted after the Google acquisition - please get it back in shape!
(copied over from https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=96033)
I am a passionate Waze user who has converted many friends to the app, and has become a top 4% reporting contributor (I don't participate at all in any other gamified apps or websites). But now my support is waning fast.
Ever since Google bought Waze, routing has progressively become worse and worse. I initially switched to Waze because Google Maps routing had become horrible - inefficient routes when there were obviously better ways to go, etc. Waze does awesomely creative things like telling me to get off the freeway at an exit then immediately…

Barre des incident de parcours
serait il possible d'afficher en permanence la barre de l'état du traffic de navigation qui s'affiche au début lors du calcul du parcours? Elle se mettrait à jour toutes les 5 minutes. avec notre position en fonction du parcours général ou d'une portion de 50km qui avance en même temps.

Event report icon should not open a menu when car is moving; menu would open after car stops. This would reduce risk of accidents
When driving, it is hard to make an event report, since we need about 3 clicks and reading information on screen.
I suggest that, when the car is moving, clicking the event report icon doesn't open a menu. Waze memorizes current position for later report details.
When the car stops, voice guidance would ask "do you want to report what happened back there?" - then the report menu would open.
This would help the driver to keep attention on the road.
If driver feels comfortable with filling reports while driving, this could be changed on settings screen. However, I believe…

Speak command icon near report a road condition.
I use my iphone in landscape mode and wave and 3 fingers don't work safely. A button on the main nav page near the report icon would be great to initiate the speak command
