Add ability to report road closures at railroad crossings
Currently, you are only able to report road closures at intersections. As we all know, the road closures don't only occur at intersections. It would be nice if we could report a road closure at, let's say, for instance, a railroad crossing. Giving us the ability to report road closures at places other than intersections will allow us to plan our route more accurately and avoid us having to learn about time wasting detours the hard way.

Have different reports for police. Knowing if its a booze bus, speed camera, high patrol car etc would be very helpful.

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?3 votes -
New Report Conditions that are South Africa specific
With load shedding the robots (traffic lights) are turned off. This can be a huge hazard at night because you might run through an intersection without realising it. The option to report robots being out (power off, lights out etc) would be a great addition.
Another common issue is beggers who stand in the middle of the road. Once again, in the dark they can be very hard to see.
Another suggest might be taxi stops. In South Africa mini Taxi Busses tend to stop where ever they like. This can at times create an official bus stops. The ability…

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.

Comments such as road closures cannot be entered from a computer
Currently, you can only send messages to chats on Waze, road closure events, etc. from your smartphone.
I think it would be good to be able to input it on a computer.
Live map on PC is disabled
I want you to be able to like it while you're at it
Please improve

A short instructional video on how to alert an accident, police, etc
I would like to suggest the following: that a training video appear on behalf of the company on how to warn about an accident or the police, today that many people do not even know about the possibility of alerting, and only use the application to see alerts that others have written. Especially in the country of Panama where I live. So my idea is that once in a while a short instructional video will appear that will explain how to alert and register an accident or anything else with the police. Thank you

Multiple nearby incidents
Waze does not allow for reporting of multiple incidents of the same type in a short distance. If I report a car on the shoulder for example (or if there is already an existing report of said car) and I go to report a second one, if I'm still close enough to the first report it will limp them together. I feel like there should be a pop up saying "there is already report of a car on the shoulder in this area. Is this the same incident or are you reporting a new one?" And then allow me to…

Botones de acceso directo a Reportes
Sería necesario botones de acceso directo en la pantalla principal a Reportes ya que se pierde mucha atención al tránsito y se hace difícil buscar la correcta. La mayor parte de la navegación es por audio.

Fix Assistant Integration
Hey, does your programming dept. have school credentials from ECPI instead of MIT? What's the hold up with fixing the location handshake between Waze and Google Assistant? You DO realize that OS 13 is being released by the end of the year. Let me guess, you're hoping that will fix the problem so your incompetence will fade into history! I've been back and forth with CS for MONTHS and have not heard a peep about this problem!

Reporting gas prices outside of your area
I had difficulty reporting gas prices again while at my usual gas station. Usually as soon as I arrive, while Waze is on, I can report gas prices. App is up to date. Today I got an error stating the prices being reported were invalid. Tried more than once. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, so my suggestion is make it possible for users to report gas prices at stations they were close to, or the stations within a bigger area. That way you can re-attempt later.

When reporting police please
When you report police you should be able to have an icon for rbt and rdt (random breath test and drug test) 100% this would have a massive impact on who uses the app
