  1. Waze has the framework to potentially help avoid chain reaction vehicle accidents

    I have been studying chain reaction vehicle accidents for years and I belive that Waze may have most of the architecture already in place to alert drivers not yet at the accident scene to slow or stop, which would minimize or eliminate the wreckage, injuries and deaths that occur when low-visability causes vehicles to continue running into a crash site, creating a chain reaction accident. My request is to communicate with one of your engineers to discuss the concept.

  3. Put in ability for users to opt out of political notifications

    Give the ability to opt out of emails and other notifications that are not related to using the waze app for driving. I don't want to receive political types of notifications such as the "celebrate pride with waze" email.

  5. Show Alert distances again

    Recent update removed the distance for all alerts (e.g. accident in 0.4 miles). Now you have to look closely at the map the to see where it is. Very distracting and unsafe!

  8. Add or allow to add Stop signs

  9. Hazard warning. Remove the option to say 'still there'. It is unecessary and distracts when looking to say 'not there or gone'

    Remove the option for 'still there' when hazard is flagged up. 'Gone' is the only option required!

  10. Warning of security events

    Hello. I have an idea.
    That the Wiz will give a warning about security events on your way.
    This is especially effective in places where there are many security incidents like the State of Israel.
    (And there was an option to turn off the alerts in the settings)

  11. Consecutive alerts within a short distance

    At the moment, the Waze app provides alerts (such as hazard reports or speed/red light camera) approximately 400-500m away from the location. After driving past the report or camera, Waze doesn't check if there are any further alerts in the next 400-500m and as such, drivers miss out on this information.

    An example is at the first traffic light, there is a red light camera, however after turning, the next traffic light (assuming it is relatively close/within 500m) also has a red light camera. Drivers currently only receive one alert for the first red light camera but not for the…

  12. It would be great to have a button to indicate a police officer traveling in traffic so cars behind will know why traffic may be clogged up

    A button to indicate a police officer/vehicle is traveling with/in close proximity, and then another to show when they turn off/stop or exit a highway.

  13. Add Shortcut to "Vehicle Stopped On Side of Road"

    I found a post from 2016 asking for this and it still hasn't been implemented!

    There should be a shortcut on the navigation screen to send a "Vehicle Stopped on Shoulder" report with a single click.

    This is, by far, the most common type of report and it currently requires FIVE button presses - all of them while looking down at the screen. A user-configurable single-click report button would be even better, but a "Vehicle Stopped On Shoulder" button would be a massive improvement to the current 5-clicks.

    This has been suggested many, many times over the past many years,…

  16. Please, Please Stop The Waze Carpool Popup! It’s so dangerous! The Carpool Popups has almost gotten me into several accidents.

    Please, before someone gets killed! Please put the Waze Carpool popup in settings for people that are not going to Carpool. Your Stupid Carpool popup has popped up right when a turn is coming up or a route change. The Waze Carpool popup comes up, COVERING MUCH NEEDED INFORMATION JUST BEFORE A TURN! I have to quickly react and swipe the IOS phone to quickly Get Rid Of The Carpool popup so I know which way to turn. While I’m doing that, MY EYES AREN’T ON THE ROAD. Seriously, I’ve almost had two accidents because of Your Stupid Waze Carpool…

  18. Lower speed threshold setting

    All of the speed threshold settings are for at or above the speed limit. By the time the alert goes off I am already breaking the speed limit. It would be nice to set a threshold like 3 or 5 mph below the speed limit to prevent ever going over.

  19. Shot clock for cops

    Disallow manually removing police. Instead there should be a clock timing down (from 15 minutes?) since the most recent Waser had confirmed the Cops presence. Should time out if no new confirmation, and a shot-clock restart with every new confirmation. No more confirming if cop is still there.

  20. Add Driving Cops

    When cops are driving, you can add driving cop which would make a cop drive on waze at the speed limit of the freeway. If the driving cop is around wazzers, the wazzers can confirm if the driving cop is near by and calibrate where the driving cop is helping out other wazzers.
