Report when you stopped driving
It is difficult to report while driving because the menu is complex. So I wanna report afterwards when I stopped driving: tap on the map and report what was going on there

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.

Please add "Wildlife" as a Hazard option. Being notified of a significantly large animal that could trouble is important.

ICE/DHS SPOTTINGS
With everything going on in the U.S. I suggest adding an option if you spot ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) or DHS (Department of Homeland Security). Kind of like the police spotter option. What side they are on and if they're Hidden or Visible.

Horses
I travel through an area where wild horses run across roads or simply stand close to shoulder in herds. Almost every other day I post it as a pot hole to alert other Waze users passing. I think the app could use an option; multiple horse icon for herd or 2+, left side and right side

Larger Closure Range
When you want to add a closure, it only shows the roads infront of your trip. More often then not, you get to the intersection and find out theres a closure that Waze didnt know about, you have cars behind you so you turn a different direction. So when you press on 'Closure', it doesnt let you chose the closure you just passed because it is now behind you.

Add facility for users to add warnings of potholes in two clicks instead of current four.
UK roads are plagued with potholes currently. Receiving warnings about them is very helpful - but reporting them is a real fiddle! It involves hitting the 'Report' baloon, then 'Hazard', then 'On road', and finally 'Pothole'.
No-one should be juggling all that while driving, and yet RECEIVING the warnings is most helpful. Nor can you go back and mark them later. There are too many!
If the problem isn't such a major issue elsewhere could it just be introduced in the UK?5 votes -
Can you please put an option for TRUCK stopped instead of just CAR stopped.

Whiteout conditions
A report for winter whiteout conditions would be extremely useful and a great safety feature for those in the north that deal with these weather conditions.
Whiteouts are the single most dangerous winter driving we run into and they can come out of nowhere and effect very narrow sections of highway causing near zero visibility leading to pileups.5 votes -
Voice-enabled user reports
Allow for voice-enabled user report functionality e.g., “Hey Waze, I see Police” or “Hey Waze, I see a Car (or Animal) on Side of Road”. Minimally, voice interaction would also allow Waze to probe for more descriptive information “Thank you. Are police hidden?”. Allow users to opt into Waze having ongoing access to the microphone on the device, perhaps while the device is in vehicular motion. This would allow Waze to provide a safer reporting experience for its most valuable users on Waze…the people that do the most reporting.

Fewer taps to make a report
When using CarPlay (or even my phone when I'm the right-side passenger), to report a vehicle stopped on the side of the road I must tap the orange "Report" circle, choose "Hazard," "Shoulder," "Vehicle Stopped." In CarPlay, when driving that takes my eyes from the road at least four times to identify/locate/push the appropriate button to make the report. Rather than spelling out the words for each part of the notice - perhaps readily identifiable icons could be "stacked" under the headings. As with "QWERTY," there are gestures/reports most often used that could be located in priority locations on the…

Add road closures that happen at specific times
For example, there’s a road on one of my regular routes that is currently undergoing construction and it’s a 2 lane highway so in order to work on it properly without traffic interference, they close the road between the hours of 10pm-5am Mon-fri. I noticed there is no option to report closures with a specific time frame which kind of sucks. I think it would be beneficial to add this feature as I know of quite a few other roads or ramps that close only at specific times.
