  1. Passenger Train Tracking for Waze Users Riding Trains

    Put railroad tracks on maps, and allow passengers on trains to see when it is estimated they will arrive at destination. I used Waze while on a train, and it was cool to see my speed, but it kept trying to mark my position on highways.

  5. Snow removal equipment

    I was in Maryland during the recent blizzard. I was able to make the return drive to Pittsburgh on Monday. The roads where clear, however road crews were doing snow removal on the shoulders, left and right. I found during my drive the crews were often on turns and had I had no warning to be able to change lanes for safe distance.

    That's when I thought of a SNOW PLOW notification. It would include a left or right choice and on road or shoulder choice. Moving or stationary would be a choice too, but might be a bit much…

  6. Red tint on the side that traffic is slow

    The red/yellow line is thin and gets obscured by the purple nav line.

    See also http://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59223-waze-suggestion-box/suggestions/1809381-purple-route-line-hides-traffic

    In addition to the current line, I suggest a wider transparent line in red/yellow tint. The wider line should be drawn alongside the road, rather than exactly on it. The line should be on the side that the traffic is on.

    In addition to the obscuring problem, the little moving flow arrows are hard to see when driving, while a broad tint clearly to the side of the road might be clearer.

  7. enable Navigation while AVOIDING "RED ROADS"(roads defined as such by authorities/NGO's). Red Road = higher probability for an accident.

    Nation wide, the safety level of road infrastructure reflects budget constarints, professional considerations-mistakes etc.

    Government as well as NGO's e.g. Or Yarok(Israel) monitor accident rates(as well as severty) per LOCATION.....

    Thus it is possible to rate certain roads/junctions as RED - being more dangerous, based on hard statistics.

    Most of the drivers are NOT aware of above(i.e. that they can drive to their destination with significantly lower accident risk) and would probably be happy not to RISK their families and hence chose an alternative, safer road.
    Regardless of the fact that it would require longer driving.

    Such measure would lead…

  8. Better destination features

    1. Rename address to something that describes the destination (not simply the address)
    2. Sorting (alphabetical, distance, importance, etc.)
    3. Provide a way to group certain addresses.

  9. Ideas

    Hi,
    I love the app use it almost every day!
    I have several ideas to improve the Waze app.
    • Bring back the police and on road icons, this enables us to see relative distance to reporting
    • Allow mobile and directional reporting of police
    • Allow inside or outside lane reporting of hazards
    • Post reports of police both directions as we have officers who wait in median
    • Allow directions to closest officer for emergency use.
    • Allow return to normal speed after clearing of congested roadways
    • Update routes when roads become congested (immediately without searching alternate…

  10. Please add a coastal and water way navigation with chart data, depth, hazards, no wake zones, locks, navigation buoys etc.

    This would help the average and novice boater navigate the country's rivers, lakes, inter-coastal and coastal water ways.

  11. התראה באיילון על מצלמות נתיב תחבורה ציבורית במקום מצלמת מהירות

    עכשיו שהתקינו את מצלמות למטרת קנס לרכבים פרטיים הנוסעים בנתיב תחבורה ציבורית
    כל 1 ק"מ הוויז מתריע על מצלמת מהירות במקום מצלמת תחבורה ציבורית
    שבפועל מצלמות אלה לא בודקות מהירות - וזה סתם גורם לברקסים ותאונות

  12. ergonomy suggestion

    On map screen, the arrival time is with BIGGER characters than the distance to the next turn (left up corner) and with a weaker contrast. I'm a bit old, I can see the arrival time very clearly, but it is not the MAIN information I need.
    The next turn distance is a bit difficult to read for me and necessits attention. I would prefer to see clearly and quickly the next turn distance.

  13. arriving with destination on the right for those of us that use the app to navigate with a disabled person on board the vehicle

    I use my waze while at work driving disabled people to destinations, the vehicle is equipped with a passenger side lift for those in mobility devices, an option to arrive at the destination with it being on the right side of the vehicle would be both safer and more convenient.

  14. Why not to be able to ask about a restaurant along my drive ?

    Some GPs suggest you some restaurant (Adress , type, prices) the shorter of your course, why not Waze ?

  15. Route color coding.

    In navigation programs currently route to go is shown in single colour.
    It can be colour coded to show descent and ascent, with intensity of colour changing according to steepness.
    That would decrease risks when overtaking, as descents are hard to spot, and another car can be hiding there.
    Current maps can be updated, when there are changes in altitude not matching ones known in app. No manual work would be needed; averages of reporting can be used.

  17. ממוצע זמן נסיעה בשעה נתונה ויום מוגדר

    הכוונה היא לאותם אנשים שעושים נסיעה חדשה, בעיקר בשעות הבוקר למקום חדש ואין להם שום מושג כיצד להערך לזה. לצורך העניין אם מחר יש לי פגישה במקום שאינו במסלול הקבוע שלי, איני יודעת כמה זמן נסיעה זה עשוי לקחת ובהתאם כל ההתארגנות ושעת התעוררות בבוקר משתנה.

  18. add option to disable traffic based routing

    When routing, waze often attempts to route around traffic. Waze is used occasionally for just the first part of a journey (navigating a downtown area, for example) and I find it selecting a completely different route every time I use it because it attempts to route around the traffic at work.

    Another example is that during extremely heavy traffic in a snowstorm, waze had me exiting at every freeway exit and then entering the freeway again, simply because the freeway exits had little traffic on them compared to the freeway itself.

    Because of this, there should be a simpler routing…

  19. Semaphores

    Waze could have an algorithm to detect where are the semaphores in the city, and keep how long they take to open, to avoid the semaphores that take longer.
    There are some semaphores in São Paulo that take too long to open. It would be very useful to avoid them.
