  2. Add the ability to edit and combine reports

    for example,
    (1) correct 'danger' to 'stopped vehicle' and 'stopped vehicle' to 'police',
    and
    (2) combine 'accident' or 'police' with 'blocked lane'

  3. Old street closure reporting system

    Previously, when reporting a street closure, Waze would allow the driver to indicate which road was closed. Now, Waze changed it to reporting a closure that the driver is currently on. This doesn't work in real-world usage because you cannot be on the road that's closed. This results into incorrect street closure reportings. Please go back to the old method of reporting a street closure.

  4. Report back track

    It would be handy if we can check past police reports.
    If I drove my route in the morning. Over took someone and might’ve gone slightly over.
    Come that afternoon if we could look back at that location and rough time to see if police ended up being reported in that area.

  6. Report road closures

    Come on. . .you can do better than this- road closure is important to everyone using the road it should be high on the priorities list for Waze users- at the moment it is virtually impossible to report a route is blocked or closed!

  7. Blitzer- und Gefahrenmeldungen

    In vielen Städten wie Wuppertal veröffentlichen die Behörden wöchentlich Pläne, auf denen die Standorte mobiler Blitzer von Montag bis Freitag angekündigt werden. Mein Vorschlag ist, dass Waze diese offiziellen Daten automatisch integriert, um Nutzer:innen proaktiv zu warnen.

    Vorteile:
    - Höhere Genauigkeit und Zuverlässigkeit der Blitzerwarnungen durch offizielle Quellen.

    - Zeitersparnis für Nutzer:innen, die Blitzer nicht manuell melden müssen.

    - Bessere Verkehrssicherheit durch präzise Vorabinformationen.

    Umsetzungsmöglichkeiten:
    1. Kooperation mit Städten, um digitale Pläne (z.B. via API) einzubinden.

    2. Automatische Markierung der betroffenen Straßen mit Hinweisen wie:

    „Hohe Wahrscheinlichkeit für mobilen Blitzer (Quelle: Stadt Wuppertal)“.

    Hinweis:

    Falls eine automatisierte Integration nicht…

  9. Emergency vehicle

    Clicking/ reporting for an emergency vehicle should be for stopped emergency vehicles and accidents.
    It drives me crazy when people are clicking emergency vehicle just because they are passing by which is NOT helpful. This is apparently unclear. Would you kindly make a post that populates with the next update to inform wazers not to click for non-stopped emergency vehicles?

  10. Feature request - ability to specify which lane is affected

    I wonder if it would be possible to add an extra screen where you can specify where a hazard is - e.g. a pothole or object in the road. It’s not useful on a 3 lane motorway to be informed about a pothole in lane 3 when you’re driving in lane 1!

    Additionally if a feature could be added regarding reporting things on the other side of the road - e.g. roadworks that are in the lane going in the other direction but not affecting your lane.

  11. police

    Please reinstate the "Police on Other Side" feature. Reporting speed traps is the most useful reason to report police, and traffic moving in opposite direction will always be better suited to identify and report.

  12. Police and radar on the side of the road

    Hello. The idea would be that each time a police report is made, that it would either make an alarm or alert message at least 1000 to 2000 meters before reaching the police report or that it would add to the route a highlighted section of 1000 to 2000 meters similarly to the traffic jam report before reaching the actual police reported point. Sometimes the radar is hidden way before the visible police car, the latter being the interception unit and not the measuring unit.

  13. Add vehicle on road ahead (currently only offers shoulder option)

    Knowing if a vehicle is stopped on the road or on the shoulder is critical. This information could be life-saving. We recommend updating your navigation app to include this feature.

  14. Being able to report closed roads when you are not at it

    We need to be able to report closed roads when we are not staring at it or driving. I hate that I can only report closures when I'm there. If I know the road is closed I should be able to report that from a safe place or after the drive. I get that it needs to be verified, but it seems like we should be able to do that by linking state/county reports.

  16. Traumatic

    Possibly new category of report. "Traumatic" title proceeding current and or new reportable events to alert drivers who may have younger children or sensitive occupants in their vehicles of situations such as accidents or struck wildlife that may be extremely visible to other passing motorists, so the driver can choose to detour and avoid exposure of such traumatic instances to their passengers or their selves.

  17. A better way to identify logs

    Let me add one suggestion about logs:
    When sending logs from the app, in order to report a bug, name or mark them with a unique identifier and then display that identifier in the final message to the user. In this way we may make a screenshot and tell you exactly which log we sent.

  19. Simplify and organize the user reports

    The last major change to reports have been very confusing in a few ways.

    1. There are redundant and overlapping reports now. E.g. there is construction blocking the right lane. Do I report that as construction then go back and report right lane blocked?

    One option would be to change this to have a construction tab which would be other side, right lane, left lane, center lane, shoulder. Then the drivers would know where the construction is.

    1. Where did the ”Car stopped on road" report go? This is MUCH more important than the car on shoulder. If a car is disabled…
