If flood report is existing in app, route should depend to type of car
If there's a flood report, it should have a feature to make sedan or small cars to not pass through it.

Stop auto re-routing to save nominal time.
Perhaps the greatest problem with Waze is when the inconvenience of taking a nonstandard route is not proportional to the time savings the new route provides. All too often I’m taken on an insane route in comparison to the normal one just to save two minutes.
I would like to prevent Waze from automatically rerouting (or suggesting an alternative “best route”) unless the new route saves 10 minutes of the total “mainstream” route time.
Perhaps people could choose different thresholds for reroutes.
I hate it when all of a sudden I’m rerouted in traffic on the highway to take the…

Please add a filter based on size
Please add a filter based on vehicle size. An example would be a large RV based on height and length vs a small compact car.

Avoid Country Roads
Please add an option to avoid country roads in the UK, and stick to motorways, A and B roads only. Country roads are very narrow and dangerous

Option to switch to a different route
If a road is closed or very congested it would be great to have a way to tell Waze to calculate an alternate route. This could also be useful if the driver wanted to avoid a part of the route for any reason. One way would be to have a "change route" button. Another would be to have a setting that specified after # number of commands are ignored a new route would be automatically calculated based on the direction you are currently going. We just had to put up with about a thousand "make a U turn" messages before…

Show toll and no-toll options on the routes list
I truly hope that you consider putting the feature back, as having to go to the settings to change the setting to "No Tolls" and check the routes and then uncheck it to see other options is, to put it mildly, RIDICULOUS. This was there before, but for some reason that escapes me, Waze removed it!
For example, this past weekend, I was driving from NJ to OH and had to change routes quickly. I put in the addresses, and it gave me a wild route that was about 50 miles longer and would take over an hour longer than…

Fun route options
The app can give a route suggestion for more economical fuel use by showing a leaf on the route when selecting which route to take. My suggestion is to have a "fun route" option that can have a symbol associated with it that focuses on fun roads, curvy, elevation changes, etc. for those who want a fun drive and care less about fuel economy or fastest route.

Modo 2D sem placas de ruas
Eu uso o weze no modo 2D e as placas com os nomes das ruas ficam atrapalhando na hora de fazer as curvas pois ficam na frente da seta de indicação da via , seria melhor tirar essas placas e colocar os nomes das ruas dentro da via ficaria bem melhor ou tentar afastar as placas das curvas

Option to minimize use of L roads in Ireland
Add an exception to PREFER R, N, and M roads. These dang L roads barely have room for 1 car with tight hedges often encroaching within inches of one's rearview mirrors....the epitome of a nerve-wracking + dangerous experience as these are often windy with blind curves. They might "seem" more direct to a cartography algorithm, but IRL they are a total white-knuckle nightmare‼️

Emergency Route Mode
"Emergency Route Mode" – a new Waze feature that instantly calculates the fastest route in urgent situations, bypassing all preferences (tolls, traffic, dirt roads, rural routes, highways, etc.). It builds user trust in real time, strengthens brand loyalty, and opens strong monetization channels via smart emergency ads, premium upgrades, and city partnerships.

Truck
Ok, so 6+ years ago it was in the too hard basket to make a truck route...
How about just collect data from people who want to add road closures to already set routes but so long as the vehicle type is set for truck/RV. Effectively it would be a clone overlay of map guides but over time with the community help it would create itself and within days to start with.
I would happily help through the teething issues within the first few months of individually adding closure roads to route if it meant that the route was more…6 votes -
Toll maximum.
My routes that are usually within a few minutes of eachother are USD 2.42, 2.42, and .82 If I could set "pay no more than" 1.50. I would get 1.32 & .82 routes along with a quickest non-toll. This would be very helpful daily avoiding only getting the more expensive marginally quicker routes and while traveling in cities with many tolls.

Gas station - suggestion
Add all gas stations that are open along my route. For example, if I’m driving on the Budapest–Split highway, it should show me where the gas stations are along the way.
Also, include an option to select a “favorite” gas station brand.
Since I have a contract with a specific gas station company, I would set that one as my favorite, because I refuel only there.1 vote -
ZBE España-Bajas emisiones

Enable drawing polygon areas where Closures cannot be applied
Use-case:
There is a bridge under construction where only one direction is open at a time, controlled by traffic lights. Currently, Waze often shows it as closed, even though cars are just waiting for the light to change.
Proposal:
Add a feature in WME to draw a polygon-shaped area where closures cannot be applied — useful for cases like temporary one-lane bridges with traffic lights, where Waze should display a queue instead of a closure.

Option for more than 1 stop along my route
I find the option to add stops on my route convenient for when I'm going on a long drive where I need to stop at a few places along the way, but it only allows me to add one extra stop. Why can I only add one? I'd appreciate being able to add at least 3 or 4 stops in one trip so I don't need to start a new route after each destination along the way (I've had to do that before and it's way too complicated). Can you please add an option to be able to add more…

Always show typical route
I often drive the same route, and Waze likes to offer alternatives. Fine, but always show my typical route so I can evaluate whether saving 2 minutes on a 2 hour drive is worth taking some magical mystery tour.
