Hazard reporting when not driving
There needs to be a way to report hazards after you’ve driven / not while your in the current area. I’ve been in multiple situations where there has been a hazard like a crash or roadworks where i’m not in a position to be using my phone while driving as to fully pay attention to my surroundings. I feel only having hazard reporting able to work while driving is a bit dangerous and by including the ability to report things you’ve encountered on your drive at home or when your not behind the wheel would benefit the safety of yourself…

Trailer Speed and Seatbelt/Phone Cameras operating in Queensland
Firstly I know there are posts regarding this including mine but I think this needs to be addressed with fresh eyes and open minds.
I understand there is a resistance to showing the Seatbelt/Phone Cameras and I can see the thinking behind it but would like to suggest that a General Warning would be better than none.
Now on to the main part of my idea which is only applicable if Waze have no intentions of giving Wazers three options to report these Trailer Cameras (Unidirectional QPS Speed Cameras, Bidirectional Acusenus DTMR Speed Cameras and the Acusensus Seatbelt/Phone Cameras).

New hazard option
Under "hazards", please add "men working" or "people on shoulder" or something of the sort, it might not always be construction so it does not fall under that category, but sometimes it may be a survey crew, garbage clean up, or landscapers on the side of the road etc. that deserve the same safety that we give the construction workers.

Let us choose the distance at which we get alerted of reports.
Let us choose how far we want to be alerted of something up ahead. For example a box where we can type a value between 0.1 miles/kilometres and 10 miles/kilometres, keeping the decimal value there. Mainly because I think 0.3 miles is a bit too short for things like crashes up ahead or speed cameras etc..

Speed Van Report
Hey guys,
I have an issue where a lot of police reports are actually just speed vans. Where possible, could you guys add a separate report for speed vans/cameras?
Kind Regards,

Implement Customizable Quick-Report Buttons for Common Reports
To enhance the ease and safety of reporting road situations while driving, I suggest introducing customizable quick-report buttons on the side of the map. Many users, including myself, frequently report similar incidents (e.g., police presence, cars on the shoulder, construction). The current process requires navigating through multiple steps to log a report, which can be cumbersome and potentially distracting while driving. By allowing users to pre-select and place up to three of their most commonly reported incidents as single-tap buttons on the main screen, reporting can become a one-tap process, significantly reducing distraction and improving the reporting efficiency. This feature…

Too many false police sightings handling parking lot accidents, getting coffee, ect.
In theory, Once threshold met, the report is automatically deleted.

Pothole reports

Vignette control car warning
In HU mostly on highways there are multiple vignette / tax and customs car, checking traffic and are roadside, but always reported as police which is very misleading. Should be an option for some other type, because most of the police warnings are false alarm.

Michigan Potholes - Reporting to Agencies
In michigan, the state will re-imburse drivers if their vehicle is damaged by a pothote. The only way they will pay is if you can prove the pothole was there for 30 days or more. If I report a pothole on Waze, and waze notifies the state, county or city, responsible for that road of the pothole, then the 30 day days can be substantiated from that time of reporting.
Or if Waze provided the contact information for the party responsible for that road, then the user could report it themselves.1 vote -
Better traffic updates
There’s needs to be a better explanation when putting a traffic update on the map. Putting that there’s a traffic jam or standstill traffic doesn’t help. Needs to have a better explanation with the traffic update in order for it to be put on the map. Why is traffic being held up?!! Is construction or an accident.

General map editing fixes
When it comes to submitting a claim that part of the map is incorrect, the Waze contributor that contacts me speaks to me in a one-way conversation. I have no ability to text back, so he says that "no the map is fine" but he doesn't know that the recently there was construction and a new speed camera was installed. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to message him back. It's like an email inbox where I can only receive but I cannot send. If I could send and I can attach images as proof that the map has changed,…

Overview of speed controls
Show an overview of all speed controls that you had on your way with for each control the speed limit and users speed at the moment of passing the control. Including the section controls as well, showing the speed limit and users average speed during the section control. So the user can see all the controls he had and were he drove above the speed limit (and so risks to receive a fine).

Police reporting needs to be on main map instead of sub-menu
All three police reporting buttons need to be displayed on the main map, since these are the three buttons that you'll use the most. Having to click into a sub-menu and find the button that you need while driving is entirely too distracting while driving. It would be much safer if users were able to simply click the 'police visible', 'police hidden', or 'police - other side' buttons, without having to access a sub-menu.
There are two things that people use Waze for: traffic routing and police reporting. All other things in the reporting sub-menu are extra and can stay…

Configuration Setting for Road Hazards Order
Road Hazard Reporting is extremely important for the efficiency & simplicity of submissions! We do NOT want the "Submission of Report" to be the source of vehicle accidents! This can be assistance with one being able to customize their own order of "Road Hazards" listing within the Smartphone App and CarPlay view! In my case, having to scroll down in my CarPlay view to access "Pothole" increases my chances of possible "vehicle accident issues" on the road due to the extra 2-5 seconds of "less direct attention" to the crazy other drivers on the road! In other words, this configuration…
