It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier.
It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier - maybe even by alert type so that constriuction alerts could be set at 20 miles - and police alerts at 1.
390 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Toads on roads
In the spring – March, April – when driving along ponds, lakes or rivers, toads migration is observed on the roads. To reduce the death of these amphibians, Nature Conservation Agency is organizing the “MISSION TOAD” or "TOADS on ROADS" campaign in Latvia. It is known that WAZE could inform other drivers about animals on the road some time ago. But currently it is not possible to report it. Could this function be returned? It would be a great contribution to the preservation of natural values.

Signalement
Bonjour,
Durant l’été j’ai souvent rencontré des personnes a pieds sur le bas côté des autoroutes ou routes rapides. Très dangereux, mais impossible à signaler. Dommage. Je pense que cela devrait être ajouté.161 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Add option to add sound decibel readers
NYC specifically in the 5 boroughs of new york as well as a couple of other states started a program for sound decibel readers to be installed through out the city in other words noise cameras for cars and motorcycles. NYC has always been a loud place so this is un necessary. It is also not right towards cars that come from the factory stock such as scat pack chargers, hellcats, mustangs, harley davidson motorcycles, sports bikes, As well as many super cars. The 1st noise violation is a insane price of approximately $800 the 2nd is approximately $1600 and…

Dead animal option in hazards
There have been several times where dead animals have been described as "objects". For example, today I saw someone's dog who had died on the road was described as an "object". As someone who is very upsetted by dead animals, I would like there to be an option for "dead animal" so I know not to look. I know there used to be an option for it, but now it seems to be gone.

Is there a feature that can be built into the Waze app that will alert you to an upcoming speed change
Could Waze build an alert into its app to alert you to an upcoming speed change, to help you decrease your speed. it would help to keep you from exceeding the speed limit.

Don’t let stationary users perform status updates for police cars.
Make it so that you need to be moving in order to click that a cop car is no longer there.
Don’t let stationary users perform status updates regarding the fact that a police car is in a spot or not. Once you do this, cops will stop watching Waze to undo what drivers are reporting so that they do t get noticed.
Please.
We will trust the app 1000% more!!! Word will spread.

Alert about speed cameras even when not speeding.
Currently, with speed camera alerts enabled, the alert only activates when speeding while approaching a speed camera. An option to display the alert regardless of current speed would be beneficial.

Car on right or left side of the road
Letting drivers know what side of the road the car is on.
The first report os just "car is on the the side of the road," once reported the next wazer can confirm which side right or left.
This 2 step reporting is less distracting to drivers35 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Feature Request - Add the ability to reach out to the community for help in a breakdown or accident
A topic came up in a FB motorcycle group about ways to signal to other users that you need help. Perhaps you ran out of gas, have a flat, or some other issue that requires tools. I carry tools with me on my bike to fix most issues that could arise. Although I look for helmets on pavement or some indication that a Wazer might be in need of help, it would be easier to have a Pulsing icon on my route map that easily identifies anyone that may be in need of assistance.
It's a nice way to ensure…

Waze is not for trucks!
When user installs Waze for the first time, a kind of pop-up or something similar, clearly shows that Waze is not for truck drivers.
Every day we receive complaints about bad routes for trucks and we need to explain that Waze is not for them.

Still there and Not there buttons should stay for longer.
The "Still there" and "Not there" buttons should saty a little bit longer. By the time you go near and and be able to see the buttons are gone, especially when there other vehicles in front of you and can't see in time.

Speed cameras alert
Sometimes we need the option for Speed Camera alert to sound regardless of the vehicle speed (up or down the permitted speed).

INCLUDE KAMIKAZE´S ALERT IN WAZE
LIVES COULD BE SAVED BY INCLUDING A QUICK ACCESS KAMIKAZE (vehicle driving in the wrong direction) ALERT ON WAZE. KAMIKAZES IS ONE, IF NOT THE DEADLIEST DANGERS THAT YOU CAN ENCOUNTER ON A ROAD AND WAZE DO NOT HAVE THIS ALERT. I THINK IT SHOULD INCLUDE IT ASAP

keep directions on the screen
Using Waze is for directions of not knowing where to go so I think you need to go back to the small alerts on the screen instead of taking up the directions spot and having them disappear. It’s very frustrating trying to find your way through a city you’ve never driven in before when the directions keep disappearing to alert you that there’s a car on the side of the road.
27 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Speed camera audible alert issue
I'm not sure if this is the same for all or just an issue with my install but it would be good to have an audible alert for every speed camera that I pass on a journey because at present the only audible alert I get is for the first camera I pass, there after, all additional cameras only show up as a visual alert.
