  1. Traffic ahead, would you like to reroute

    Currently, when there is an alert given "amount of time in traffic, x minutes." once you're already in the traffic. It would be nice if that alert was given sooner AND provide the opportunity to re-route. For example, "traffic ahead will add x minutes to your trip. Would you like to re-route around the traffic?"

  2. Turn Express Lanes off just like you can Toll Roads

    Please Please find a way to turn off express lanes. You did it for Tol Roads do it for express lanes. I turned off my toll road pass to see if it would help and it does not - besides there are times I want toll roads to be an option but NOT express lanes. Every day I head home it only gives me express lane options - I'm not getting a ticket for being on an express lane as a single rider and I'm unable to get around traffic becauses waze wants to assume I'm on an express lane

  3. Add option to avoid passenger vehicle only roads

    When driving a commercial vehicle (UHaul van) would be great to be able to avoid passenger car only parkways such as those common in the SW Connecticut/NYC region

  4. Rotas para caminhões

    Boa tarde, por favor criem uma opção para caminhões para nos ajudar no dia a dia do trabalho, os caminhões tem muitas restrições de horário e ruas. Criem uma opção com rotas para caminhões por favor, com certeza a popularidade do app vai aumentar muito.

  5. Waze NEEDS "Bread Crumbs".

    One thing waze should have is "Bread Crumbs". I miss this feature on my old Garmin units. It basically leaves a dotted trail behind your path so you can easily find your way back without having to enter a new destination.

  7. show public transportation routes

    We're in a climate crisis and everybody should drive less when there are alternatives available.
    Waze should help with that by suggesting Public Transportation or bicycle routes when selecting a destination, when those routes are viable alternatives (don't bother showing a 3h bus route for a 10 min drive).
    This could be similar to Google Maps and use the same data.
    Just by showing that there are alternatives, the user might be tempted to try them.
    This might be specially useful when driving in cities that have car restrictions, dedicated bus lanes or good bicycle infrastructure that rivals congestion, where…

  9. Make option to avoid international borders

    Drove from Boston to Michigan and the app continuously tried rerouting us through Canada to save time! Please add an option to avoid international borders so we don't have to worry about being sent through another country if traffic builds ahead.

  10. Make "Do not avoid Pay Roads" assume all Vignettes / Tolls paid

    When driving through Europe, Waze avoids highways even when the option "avoid toll roads" is turned off (it should use toll roads). Each country has a different vignette. Travelling a 5h car ride from Crostia to Austria can take you through Slovenia or Hungary. To use highways you need to add the Vignette for Austria, Hungary, and Slovenia. That takes time and is confusing and inconvenient.

    Solution: when "Avoid toll roads" is disabled, take any road a typical car would drive, including all vignettes you buy in that country. Assume the driver will buy them. Give infos about tolls and…

  11. Have an option to adjust the maximum speed limit to account for company speed limits. Working for Hallcon, I can only drive 55 mph at night

    Have an option to adjust the maximum speed limit to account for company speed limits. Working for Hallcon, I can only drive 55 mph at night on a two-lane road, 65 mph during the day on a two-lane road, and a maximum of 70 mph for any road. I would like to be able to put this in settings, so that Waze can come up with a better route and ETA for me. I do not like being sent down two-lane roads at night going 55 mph when I could be going down a highway at 67 mph, and could…

  12. Que Waze vienne constater la réalité des routes avant de proposer des "raccourcis".

    Veuillez tenir compte des infrastructures avec les Maires des communes avant de proposer des routes qui sont en réalité des chemins de campagne à une voie et qui une fois connus n'offrent plus la possibilité à la nature, aux vététistes, aux promeneurs, aux résidents et à leurs enfants de se sentir en sécurité, tellement le flux augmente et les détériorations avec...

  13. Detailed info on "car on shoulder" warning

    Instead of just "car on shoulder ahead" it would be great to know which shoulder (left or right). In Minnesota we are required by law to move over to give cars on the shoulder room. It would be great to know which way I need to move to avoid hitting the car or striking someone who is out of the vehicle.

  14. When showing „Routes”, to be able to select „best average-speed route”

    When showing „Routes”, to be able to select „best average-speed route”, because many drivers prefer a longer but a more pleasant drive to a shorter but full of stops and traffic jams one. Driving faster is part of the pleasure of driving.
    Especially in very busy areas, this option would be more than welcomed.
    Driving is a pleasure per se, but not if you just stay in line, stuck in traffic jams.

  17. It would be very helpful if there was an option to show roads that don’t allow pulling trailers

    Waze does not give an option to show or redirect when you’re pulling a trailer. Some roads such as the Merritt Parkway don’t allow trailers. Sometimes we trailer motorcycles going south from Ct.

  18. "personal speed limit"

    Personaly set speed limit :
    Having a "personaly set speed limit" feature that could be set for a given trip planning, independantly from the speed figures of the drives taken in the past (i.e unlike the already existing Personalized ETA feature) would allow to get planning results corresponding to one's own speed limit decisions, whether they be for EV range optimisation, trailer towing, vehicle capabilities, fuel efficiency on combustion engine vehicles, or other reasons... That would actually also allow to see what is the time cost of "taking it easy".

  19. Possibility to tick an avoid country lanes box

    Overview routes are only general. A button to tick "Avoid country lanes/no name lanes) would be so useful to not go in circles, trying to find a better route towards a location. It's not always possible to avoid country lanes, but most of the times/most of the route can be at least on B roads.
