User Reporting - initial and more details
Add an option to email reporting user for more details when creating the report. The long press on report currently gives options for Police, Hazard and Traffic. My suggestion is to add one for 'email me' where the user can provide full details when they are not driving. Navigating to the Report, finding the correct option, before finding the Later option is not safe when you driving.
As editors, there are a lot of reports with minimal detail. Posting a request for the submitter to provide more details rarely gets a response.

Hazard on the Road: Add Construction with People
In my state, you must slow down to 45 MPH construction zones when workers are present. If there are no people you can proceed to posted construction speed (60 MPH in 70 MPH zone)

Potholes are removed by bad actors
I drive rideshare and diligently mark devastating potholes just for them to be removed moments later. There may be bad actors in high clearance vehicles with big tires removing these, or just people that don't see them from a different lane. It's likely many just want the notification off screen and mindlessly downvote. It needs to be more difficult to get rid of pothole reports, or allow us a setting to make recent reports more persistent regardless of downvotes.

Road closure options
Would be nice to be able to report a road closure prior to starting trip. I know a major road is closed but I can't report it to be routed around it until I am at the closure

Create a way to verbally make reports/or "still there/not there" reports, or verbally ask it to repeat the next direction
Create a way to verbally make reports/or "still there/not there" reports, or verbally ask it to repeat the next direction. Totally hands free using Google, Bixby, Siri or whatever your phone uses. For example make it possible to say "hey Google, report on waze hazard on shoulder, then waze can either go through the list of hazards or just ask what kind and we say car stopped. Or even for us who use waze a lot, we basically know what the options are so allow us to say "hey Google/Siri (whatever), report on waze an object on roadway", hey Siri,…

road block reporting on car play
In car play, reporting road block is not possible. To report a road block you will have to disconnect and report through your phone which is 1. Time consuming 2. Inconvenient and most importantly, very dangerous! I don’t understand why this crucial function is not available in car play mode. This is critical in reporting real time and safety!

Choose lane when user want to send report about pot hole or object on road
When we don't know which lane is the pot hole or object on road it's hard to manage it with driving. My suggestion is adding an option when we are reporting them we could choose the lane .

Inclusão de Quebra-molas como aviso perene.
Creio que as lombadas ou quebra-molas deveriam ter uma opção de alerta de obstáculo perene. Existem muitos deles sem sinalização formal e a opção perene, assim como radares, evitaria muitos acidentes.

Mute social notifications
The new +5 notifications keep interrupting my music and podcasts while driving. There is no setting under push, text, email or reports notifications to turn off the nags. Please let make it clear how to turn off sounds in the app, or at least let us turn off social sounds. Sound is the primary interface to Waze, it is extremely important to keep the signal to noise ratio high... Getting 10 social notifications a minute undermines navigation, alerts and Waze as a whole.

Pindrop for Hazard Report
Pindrop sighting report. Everytime i sighted a hazard such as broke down vehicles, police, construction or etc on the road, as a rider, i needed to safely navigate myself through the situation before I can pull out my phone and report it, by then, I will be a distance away and the report will be inaccurate.
If I could pin drop the location of the incident/hazard, it will be a lot more useful for road user.
In country such as Singapore, both hands must be on steering wheel at all times. Also, it is an offence for driver to touch…

Add the ability to report air patrols
Add the ability to report air patrols, which is very common in Ohio. It would be good to be aware when this is being used for those times when the patrols start before there is a reported police presence.

Multi Directional Alerts
Multi-Directional Alerts
Weather and animals on the shoulder should be Multi-Directional Alerts.
This is true as the weather doesn't care what direction you're coming from.
Also, animals on the shoulder could cross the road and come back on again from the other side.
Please consider this suggestion.5 votes -
Increase time pothole reports show on map.
Potholes don't magically go away and frequently take days or weeks to be repaired. They are often difficult to spot and have potential to do damage. Unlike other report types eg police, roadworks closures etc which are much more likely to be temporary or able to be put in place for extended periods potholes are there til repaired
I frequently report potholes on the route and end up reporting the same hole the next day for weeks at a time before they are repaired. The road is well travelled and from my impact report I can see they are seen…

Add "Points" to the list of Alerts&Reports>Reports so I can turn OFF the points alert while driving
Add "Points" to the list of Alerts&Reports>Reports, so that I can turn OFF the points display while driving and turn OFF the points Alert while driving.
While I'm driving 70 in bumper to bumper traffic there is NO REASON for the Waze app to take my attention off the road to inform me RIGHT NOW about "+10" Wazy points. I don't know what points are and I don't care. Currently I see no way to turn off this Alert without disabling all voice directions.

Improve petrol station reporting
Manual option to report fuel pricing or larger range.
When at a fuel station, the request to update prices doesn't always occur so pricing isn't up to date.4 votes -
