  1. Needing multiple people to remove a posted notifier (traffic, police, etc)

    The fact that a single person can remove a notifier by saying “it’s no longer there” is a little broken I think the app should need a minimum of 3 users saying the (traffic, debris, accident, police, etc) are no longer there. -ps got a **** ton of ideas first ones free next 50 need a job opportunity

  2. When Searching for "FUEL", add [Nearest] or [Along Route] selector/modifier.

    Not only is this needed, but it also needs good UX to make what's happening clear.

    In the OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of situations, I want the CLOSEST gas station AHEAD (or on my current) route. It could be something as easy as a modal popup that says [BUTTON] in brackets:

    [Shortest Distance] or [Nearest Ahead]

    Where [Shortest] = "oh my .... I'm on fumes and need fuel NOW"
    And
    [Nearest Ahead] just does a quick check of your current route, a little balancing to find the shortest route with a 10-minute "lookahead" and presents the user with a list that INCLUDES:

  3. When reporting anything on the road, cops, accident, construction a header should pop up asling how far back (ie my loction, 150m,300m, 600m

    There should be some form of a header that pops up as you're reporting a cop. For example that lets you select how far back from your current location. Same goes for any report you're making on the road. The last heading that pops up should be how far back. Just like the last heading when you report a cop is visible hidden other side of the road.

  5. Hazard reporting wrong way driver, amber alert popup

    Send an alert to people in the area of a wrong way driver. Similar to Amber alerts. Notification system for amber alert would reach more people in an area. Suggestion to pull over would reduce the number of accidents

  6. Split avoid toll roads into avoid toll roads and avoid toll bridges

    I live in Lisbon, 2 bridges. Tolled only in 1 direction, south to north. I want to avoid toll roads sometimes but not the tolled bridges.

  10. Ability to add obstructions offline

    Wish there was a way to add (eg, road closures) offline - currently it seems the only way to do it is to actually drive there until the triangle button appears on the screen. Trying to warn everyone as a closed road is currently showing as roadworks/closed lane.

  11. Leave the overview map on the screen until I change it.

    In Google Maps, when I get to the Overview Screen, it stays on the screen and slowly zooms in until I get to my destination. In Waze, the Overview Screen only stays for a few seconds, then reverts to the basic navigation screen. Please make Waze more like Maps and let me keep the Overview Screen on the display until I change it!

  12. Indicate open lanes at a crash

    When ppl indicate a crash let them indicate which lanes are kept open, it will let drivers safely move to the correct lane farther back, alleviating lanes changes close to the crash (in thicker traffic). It will also give more incentive for ppl to use Waze.

  14. Ambulance/Fire/Armed Police Blocking Road

    I don’t understand why roadworks get precedence over emergencies. So many emergencies such as ambulances, firetrucks and even police cars regularly close or block roads temporarily causing extreme traffic jams so there should be an option to warn Wazers so they can opt to take a different route. I live in a city centre (Birmingham) where I am faced routinely with a blocked road due to an emergency such as an overturned car, a person trapped in a car, cars on fire, house fires, standoff situations with police because somebody is held up in a property with a gun or…

  15. Trains blocking roads

    I think it would be great if there could be a feature added for trains! We have trains in this area that will stop on the tracks for hours, and they end up blocking over 20 different roads and you end up having to drive about 15 roads down until you find an opening where the train ends. Currently there's no way to indicate a stopped train. I've tried using the blocked road feature but it doesn't work for this.

  17. Better lane guidance

    Better lane guidance would be a big help. I’m coming from Google Maps. I would get notified at more than a mile when to get into a lane before a turn and how far over I need to be. So 1 mile to 2 miles out would be good especially on the expressway when traveling at higher rates of speed. If the notification became more frequent the closer you got to An exit or to a turn that would be a help as well

  18. Identify Tope’s / speedbumps in Mexico

    Just like potholes might be a good idea- in Mexico there are 1000’s of speedbumps that in Spanish are called Topes. It would be a great value add to add an alert for upcoming speed bumps as non-local drivers are at risk of hitting speed bumps at full road speed which is dangerous for the driver and vehicle. This feature would be greatly valued for drivers in any country that uses speed bumps to control vehicle velocity

  19. Ability to name drive plan

    The ability to plan the drive and get the notification to leave on time is super helpful but I wish I could name them without plan it in the calendar event to have it named.

  20. Fastest route regardless of toll fees

    Currently Fastest Route takes toll amount and distance into consideration. Many times, better routes with much higher tolls + a longer highway detour is in fact faster.

    While there is an option to opt out of tolls, there is no way to have the "Fastest" route regardless.

    Fastest should mean really the fastest and not "according to what Waze thinks people might want".
