Speed Bumps
I will suggest the inclusion of speed reducers commonly used in Brazil, called "lombadas" or "quebra-molas" (speed bumps). These elements are rarely well signposted.
Are a ridge set in a road surface, for purposes to make drivers to reduce speed.462 votes -

Muito importante o aviso da existência de lombadas ou Saliências, uma vez que a maioria não possui sinalização adequada. Fato que pode até mesmo causar acidentes ou sérios danos ao veículo.

Enable the Difficult Turn setting to be time/day specific
Today we have the ability to mark a turn as difficult, but we don't have a way to say it is only difficult during certain times of the day like during commute hours, or even to be only weekdays when there is commute traffic.
The current UI could easily be updated to move the difficult turn box to the end of each row for the restriction. That way if an editor sets up a time for a restriction, it now becomes an option to be 100% restricted, or just difficult.
The editor could then set up a left turn being…

Route away from schools at pickup & dropoff time
We've been noticing an increasing amount of Waze traffic near our local elementary school. It is dangerous for the kids who are biking to school (and not yet as reliable as adults) -- we have had three kids hit by cars in our small city so far this year. And I'm sure it is annoying for drivers -- we've seen a lot of folks swerving around slow cars etc.
I would love to be able to tell Waze the pickup and dropoff windows for our school, and have it automatically route away from the school (and ideally nearby streets).
Maybe…

Please remove Embry Circle & Alton Road in Atlanta 30341 from rush hour routes.
This is a residential area with a community pool, a school and a Church. A lot of children and residents walk around the neighborhood every day. People don't honor the speed limits & it is very dangerous. We often see drivers looking at their navigation system zooming through stop signs and sometimes traffic gets so backed up, they turn around and speed through inner streets that don't connect to main roads trying to get around. This is awful and needs to change.

Temporary Speed Limits for construction
Allow editors to set Temporary Speed limits, similar to a closing, that will time out to the default, road set limit, after the time period has lapsed. It would be able to be set for the same time period as the closure, if desired, or during events, if necessary.

New editors contact
Frequently, all we've found bad editions, make it by new and inexperienced editors.
In Spanish Community we send a PM to those editors, showing what they are making bad, inviting them to know the Wiki and forum or offering them our help.
Usually this editors don't know about the existence of Wiki neither forums and therefore never read our messages, continuing with his bad and useless work or leave to edit because never see his work in the maps.
I think would be an interesting tool if when we open WME, would appear a message advertising that they have a…166 votes -
have an alert when waze is directing you into a high crime area
have an audible alert or color code when waze is directing you into a high crime area. Often locals avoid those areas and they will therefore have less traffic. But not always a good idea to go into those areas especially at night.

Single Lane with/without passing places
In the UK, we have a large number of narrow two way roads which are often only the width of a single vehicle. You can often meet oncoming traffic head-on with no easy way of passing unless one driver decides to reverse. Either that, or at best, you both end up with scratched paintwork.
Waze has no way of knowing which roads are narrow, so will often route along this type of road. Many of us would prefer to take a longer route to avoid this type of road.
I suggest that within WME we have a tickbox option of…

Put a Seed on the Production map (from the Editor) to "ask for specific questions" to actual wazers
Could be used for many things.
My idea would be:
a) Wazer, do you see a traffic light in "this" corner?
1. Yes
2. No124 votes -
Ad Hoc places
Add the option in "Event mode" to create places for particular events that would last a short period of time (Festivals, fairs, etc) with the ability to be self-extinguished after the event had ended.

Two arrival points for places created as Area
Currently when creating a place area as there is only one arrival point to be adjusted.
Tip: In certain types of places, especially Mall, there should be the option of adding another point of arrival because usually the Mall have more than one entry and Waze could trace the route to the nearest point of arrival at that location.
Another problem is users who create places like area and do not set the finishing point, often cause routing problems for the nearest street may be another, then my suggestion is that when created places like area WME let alone save…

Please add/return the Separation Line on two-way roads
It helps wazers to arrive on correct side of road.
Give the correct route, without need to duplicate roads...Other option can be using the NUMBERS (houses) of roads to decide what is the correct way/side should be used...

Add "apartment" as a category for a Place Point... Lodging doesn't cut it.
Why don't you guys add "apartment" to the category list for WME? Lodging is NOT even close...

Long Time Report from WME or Livemap
I think this is something that has been asked and requested for a long time from all over the world.
I think that it would be very useful to be able to insert Long Time Reports from WME or Livemap, also in order to better manage crisis or event situations.
The Report should Be:
Work on Road
Narrow or Low Road
Dangerous Road
Landslide
Changing lane

As electric vehicles become more popular it would be helpful if Waze showed public charging stations on the map.
With 500k electric vehicles now in the USA it would be very helpful if Waze integrated public charging stations on the map!
