Police warning
Change the police warning back to (minimally) .5 miles. Changing it to .2 miles help decrease false reports is absurd because that does absolutely nothing except give less time to be warned.

Temporary Traffic Light Option!
Option to report Temporary Traffic Lights!
the option to report construction isn’t good enough because sometimes there’s a temporary traffic light with no construction around so people report it as ‘not there’, waze will take you down that route without knowing the temporary traffic light is there, surrounded by loads of traffic! People will report something else to make others aware there is something there as there isn’t the accurate option of a temporary traffic light.

Voice command to confirm or deny hazard
I don't want to look away from the road when I get a hazard report. Need a way to use voice commands to confirm or reject.

Police helicopter or drone alarm nearby.
In some countries the police use speed radars installed on helicopters or drones. The idea is simple, when a wazer reports that warning it reaches drivers within 15 or 20 kilometers of that report. This would contribute to safer driving.

Car sentry
I would like to suggest a new feature that could enhance the security of parked vehicles and improve community-driven safety within the Waze app. The feature, which I call "Car Sentry," would allow users to register their car’s license plate within Waze. If anyone notices suspicious activity or an issue related to the registered vehicle (such as theft, damage, or an incorrectly parked car), they could quickly notify the owner through the app.
Key benefits:
Increased security: Users receive real-time notifications if their car is involved in a reported incident.
Community-driven safety: Wazers can help each other by reporting suspicious…1 vote -

Trust based system for report longevity
Hi Waze Team,
I’d like to suggest adding a trust-based system to improve the accuracy of reports. The idea is that users who consistently receive upvotes on their reports could have their future reports trusted for a longer duration by default. This would reward reliable contributors while reducing the impact of inaccurate or spam reports.
For example, if a user frequently provides reports that receive positive feedback, their new reports could remain visible longer before requiring additional confirmations. Conversely, reports from users with a lower trust score could require more confirmations sooner.
I believe this could enhance the reliability of…

Police Speed Check instead of Police
80% of my “Police” alerts that pop up are for people that have been pulled over, which is technically “Vehicle on Shoulder”. I end up reporting “not there” and then change it to Vehicle on Shoulder. I suggest changing Police and Police (Hidden) to Police Speed Check. This will eliminate the confusion of a speed check vs a car on the shoulder.

Record audio while reporting an issue (and convert to text?)
When I'm using "report an issue" functionality in CarPlay/while driving, I cannot type what the issue is about. Later, when I'm asked by some community member what the issue is about, I have to recall what it was about and there were cases that I forgot. The issue categories got narrowed so we can't pick the exact issue while reporting it (I don't understand the removal of speed limit issue - the most common issue I'm reporting!).
Since Waze has access to my microphone, I was thinking that maybe a short recording could be made after I report an issue…

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.

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.1 vote -

Weather
Icy road and severe weather alerts need a quicker expiration time. I just did a road trip that had hundreds of icy road and severe weather alerts that were 2-8 days old for roads that were dry and skies that were clear. I could only clear one when there were over 4 reports stacked on the same location.

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…1 vote -

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?3 votes
