Stop trying to be right and start trying to be helpful.
Re: my report to you yesterday. On Santa Fe, there are 2 signs for Hampton Ave. Hampton Ave South Exit or Hampton Ave North Exit. To tell me to take Hampton Ave West because that is the name of the road is just not helpful.

Rank routes by least number of minutes in traffic
For a long drive, calculate "% of time spent in traffic" and "# of minutes spent in traffic" and include that as a criteria.
We just stared at 3 different routes for a 4+ hour drive that had varying lengths and amount of time in stop & go traffic. We would have liked to have selected easily "the one that makes the car move the most and has the least stop & go, so we don't get car sick and our children don't wake up."

Save a route, not just a destination.
Save a route, not just a destination. We have a new driver in our house and we'd like to save specific routes for her to follow. We realize this could impact the time to destination but would be acceptable in certain situations

Allow settings to switch on automatic avoidance of reported issues, eg Potholes.
Please allow settings to switch on automatic avoidance of reported issues, eg Potholes. Would be awesome if waze can plan my route around specific reported issues. I've spent waaaaay to much on tyres and rims resulting from South Africa's failing infrastructure. Thank you.

route optimiser
I know there are websites that already offer this but would like to see on waze where I can add a series of addresses and waze would suggest the best route with the possibility of adding addresses after.
for example if I want to add hotels or additional breaks3 votes -

When giving voice turn instructions, add the "route number" eg. "US Hwy 31", as many road have "route signs', not street sign to show upcoming turns.

Initial Alternative Routes Display
The display disappears too quickly on my Android. No time to consider the alternatives before Waze launches the 1st choice to "Go Now." A choice should be a forced response.

Please bring Parking recommendation back
In the past, on Android Auto when searching for a destination, the parking locations nearby used to show up. Now after an update sometime back (don't know if it is a Waze update or Android Auto update), this is no longer the case. Instead, you have to start navigating to your destination and then Search>Categories>Parking to see this.
And to make it weird, the behaviour here is a hit and miss, with most of the times when this is selected, it returns a 'No Items' message (especially if I am logged in to my account)

Autodetect closures and closed roads
Waze should automatically detect closures and close roads without relying on Wazers to use the in-app closure function or on map editors to add them. Just as Waze can detect traffic and reroute, it could also detect when no one follows the directed guidance and there is zero traffic on a segment. Then when Wazer start driving on the segment again it could reopen.
Google Maps (part of Google Geo) gets closure info from Waze. And Waze (part of Google Geo) should also get closure info from Google Maps. It doesn't now, and instead will route Wazers into a closed…

Please allow vehicle selection for large vehicles
Please allow configuration of routes that are suitable for large vehicles and campers. We have a toy hauler that is 40ft long so with our dually and trailer we’re over 50ft long and very tall like at least 12ft tall. We use Waze for all our navigation. For our recent trip Waze has taken us in very tight spots such as low lines and very narrow roads. It’s been awful for our vacation trip. Please fix

Straighter/easier routes setting
There should be a way to set a preference for straighter/easier routes. Often, Waze suggests a route with a bunch of turns down small side streets or a really curvy road just to save one minute on a 20-minute drive when there was a more direct route such as a main road or highway. With this preference enabled, Waze would default to a route with a slightly longer duration that is much simpler and requires fewer turns.

Beperkte snelheid
Graag een voertuigcategoriekeuze toevoegen: auto met aanhangwagen. Deze zou dan rekening moeten houden met lagere maxinumsnelheden en verbodsbepalingen. Erg handig voor bv vakantieverkeer met caravans/vouwwagens en beroepsverkeer (aannemers/hoveniers/etc).

‘Zoom in to issue’ from route overview
The ‘route overview/timeline’ is good but it doesn't let you understand what the issues on your route are in any detail just has the logos eg 3 traffic, a broken down car and police
Can I click on the issues to quickly zoom to an overview of that area so I know where those police are, what kinda traffic disruption it is.
Sometimes these are normal eg the traffic at those temp lights. Other times it could be I big deal eg the beginnings of an unplanned closure and diversion.
Currently if planing a long drive I would have go…

Convoy mode
Multiple accounts linked together showing the same route regardless of configuration. That would help convoys to stay together. Also tracking and highlighting other members of the convoy. Maybe somekind of "wait for me" or "dont wait for me" button.

Guardar una ruta que se use frecuentemente.
Hola! Me gustaría sugerirles que uno pueda guardar una ruta realizada como ruta favorita y asi poder seleccionarla en el futuro. Es muy útil para los trayectos frecuentes entre dos puntos (ej. Casa al Trabajo). Así cada vez que uno realiza ese trayecto pueda escoger la ruta que siempre realizo y asi ver cuanto sería el tiempo del trayecto.

Routes
I’d like to request 2 additional routes besides the existing 3 recommended routes:- 1) The longest route that avoids 50% of overall traffics along its path; while navigating on this route, it’d alert with options when there’s a faster route regardless of distance; options are either to maintain current route or the improved traffic route? 2) The longest route that evades 90% or higher overall traffics along its path; while navigating on this route, it’ll pop up a screen that alerts users of a quicker route regardless of overall distance, which free from zero or negligible traffics, 1-5% of the…
