Waze should have the Road Speed in build with its MAPS and this should be compared with it's Speedometer feature to put the ALERT to user
Waze should have the Road Speed in build with its MAPS and this should be compared with it's Speedometer feature to put the ALERT to user/driver if he/she would exceed the speed limit.
For example, if the allowed speed limit for some road/high way is 100 KM and user accidentally crosses the speed and reached to 105KM or 110 KM then WAZE should put the ALERT to its user that the speed limit is crossed and user may have fine so decrease the speed to avoid any fine.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

please allow us to report incidents incidence and be alerted b to figure out how long it will take to get to the destinatiour
please allow us to report and be notified of the incident on the other side of the freeway road going in opposite direction. also we should be able to enter a starting location to find out how long it takes to get to A destination instead of using my location if we're not at that location
1 voteOther side reporting is available for police and crashes.
Creating a route from different location is a bit tricky, but possible. Here’s the flow:
1. Select an address, which would be your starting point
2. On the preview location page tap on ‘More’ button (three dots), tap ‘Select as starting point’
3. Select an address which would be your destination
4. Tap ‘Go’ – Waze would calculate a route from selected start point to the selected destination point. -
Adding events to the list for people to report on
Add vehicle stopped in the road causing congestion.
Add traffic lights not working causing congestion.
Add police road blocks as well as specifying what police is doing.
For instance, highway petrol will not be trapping for speed, whereas other would have set up a temporary speed trap using laser devices - not cameras.1 vote -

Restriction zones based on license plate
In Costa Rica Waze is probably the top GPS app, largely because we lack proper street names and numbers!
The capital city has a license plate access restriction system, where depending on your license plate, you cannot access the city center 1 day of the week. It would be amazing to have the ability to tell waze which day you cannot enter and for the app to design alternate routes for you.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already takes license plate restrictions into account, in many parts of the world. To enable this feature, add your license plate details under Settings > Car details > License plate.

I would like to be able to send a destination from my laptop or computer to my Waze account via email or an integrated link.
I need to go anywhere - so I look the address up on my computer. If I could simply send that address to Waze via email or via some integration, that would be an excellent additional capability.

The ETA on the shared route (My Drive) website is no longer visible on older browsers
The ETA is visible only for a very short time before the map is overlaid. Older browser is the default browser of an older Android phone (Samsung with Android 2.3) and IE9.
Also tried the current Firefox and Chrome versions, and both are OK.

Waze could display the speed limit of the road we are driving, and warn the speed limit of the speed controllers we are passing.
Others devices have this improvement.1 vote -

Suggestion: put the tolls on the itinerary, than we could guess how much to spend on the trip!
When you go somewhere and it has some tolls you could guess how much spend on the way, and waze could mark where the tolls are and the price.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

I'd like to navigate to parkingplaces more easy. Now not every P possibility is shown on my map.
Not every parkingplace (P) is shown on the map. It would be very easy to select (or even see) the P on the map and navigate to it. Nice and easy way to navigate into a city.

sleep timer to improve battery life if screen turned off
hope waze will automatically turned off the gps and put the app in cached processes or closes it entirely to improve battery life when screen turned off by default, unless the app set otherwise.
my friend's phone died after using one hour and forgot to switch waze off. lol :D

One website for everybody
Why segregate users from the US (waze.com) and the rest of the world? (world.waze.com). Bet a ton of people try to use Waze on the web, check waze.com instead of world.waze.com, see nothing, and say "it doesn't work, screw it".
I imagine the separation is needed because of traffic volume concerns or something. But in that case, waze.com should redirect you to the right map depending on your IP, or if you're logged in, on your stated location. And you should have "US Map" "Rest of the world" links on the web livemap you can click to switch from one…

Create a "via" function
Say I'm at home and I'm going out but I need to stop at the bank on the way. My closest branch is the opposite direction of the way I need to go ultimately. If I could type in my destination, but then tell Waze I want to go "via" Citibank, then Waze could calculate whether it's better from a traffic perspective for me to drive the wrong direction now, or if there's a Citibank on my route that would be faster overall.

Updating Work Address still navigates me to old address when auto suggesting route on the m
Your workplace changed it address, after years if using Waze to get there. You update the Work address. The next day, you enter your car in the morning tired, accepts its suggestion as always that I'm driving to Work and what do you know - after 30 minutes you are at your OLD work address!
Only pressing Navigate and clicking Work actually navigates you to the updated address.1 voteClearing cash and/or re-installing the app should help.
