Allow manual location selection on map for reports
allow users to manually select a road or location to make reports. currently, reports can only be made based on GPS location. but sometimes as drivers we are unable to report hazards or road blockage while driving and can only do so after we’re parked. by adding this feature, we can increase safety of road users as well as drivers who wish to make a report without doing so while driving

Bring back "wrong speed limit" report
I'm using Apple CarPlay if that changes anything.
Some years ago, I could report "wrong speed limit". Now there is no report button like this and it causes the entire reporting worflow much longer: I report a general issue, then someone finds it, asks me what the issue is about (and I don't always remember if it was about the limit), and then I reply and they fix it. It could be just 1 click and then someone fixes it - much faster!

Allow user to report a road closure
The slip road we needed to go on had been closed but Waze didn’t know about it. Then no matter what you keep getting redirected. It would be good to click on the part of the route that is closed in order to report, as you have to drive past to a safe spot to try find a better route.

Reporting offensive comment or possible scam in map chat
I have been noticing possible scammer on the map chat for months now. The strategy has always been the same- reports heavy traffic and posted comments asking people for money (if the traffic is 20km long, you’ll see multiple traffic reports and comments from the same account all the way!). There has been instances where I encountered people cussing and giving offensive remarks on the map chat as well.
It is frustrating seeing them on the map. I hope the team can do something about this.

Hazard duration
I've checked, and I can't seem to find this suggestion, if it's already here please direct me to it.
I like to suggest that the duration of some hazards be changed. In particular potholes and construction. Potholes where I am usually last for a month at least, and there aren't enough wazers to keep the ones that are already reported active, so an extended duration for potholes would it be helpful. Even if it were a day or two, it would let other wazers confirm that it's still there.
Construction, could last for a number of hours, or the remainder…

Reporting counterflow option
Currently there is a report for road works, and there are options for closure of right, left or center lane . But there are no options for a counterflow situation on the motorway, eg where northbound traffic is led onto the southbound road half and users face oncoming traffic

Separate the responses to answer the question if a hazard is still there. They currently are directly above and below each other.
Separate the responses for the question if a hazard is still there. Bumps and undulations in the road cause me to hit the wrong button at times.

Common hotspots for speed camera vans/ speed traps
To have common hotspots for speed vans or speed traps added to the map. This would allow users to be aware of common spots for speed camera vans. Yes shouls be doing the speed limit but at the same time we all go over from time to time especially areas we may not no or the change speed limits.

Disable automatic Update Request route reporting on higher level roads.
Under certain circumstances, Waze seems to automatically submit automatic reports - but there seem to be too many of them (big time cost for editors that process and respond to URs following up for feedback, generally no response from the "reporter" because they didn't report anything themselves).
This specific request is to disable "Incorrect route", "Incorrect turn" or other similar problems on higher-level divided roads (Motorway, Major Highway, Minor Highway). When we have roadworks, the roads authority will often set up contraflow lanes on the opposing direction's roadway. This seems to produce numerous automated reports that have no value (because…

Report delay problem
When driver reports a warning, Waze should post that warning on the spot where driver was 5 seconds before reporting a problem. I often see accurate reports but too late as driver clicked report but after passing few hundred meters from the spot.

Add dedicated buttons for most common things (police, car at side of road), with no defaults in case I accidentally hit. This is one click.
Add dedicated buttons for most common things (police, car at side of road), with no defaults in case I accidentally hit. This is one click.
99% of the time I report either police or car at side of road. Make these dedicated buttons so i don't have to mess with one more level of menu.

A way to edit the map when not driving or passenger
So I’m driving and I see a horrible accident on the other side of the road or on my side of the road. I’m focused on driving and I get a mile away from the initial accident there’s no way to go back and report it’s only when driving. Maybe I can get to report an accident on the other side but I don’t have the ability to report maybe it’s blocking the right hand lane as well there is no way to report that either as of now too. Maybe not even for passengers too like I know it…

on my iphone I can see the option to add 'closure' however on my car screen, this option is not available
Why does the screen not copy to my car screen? 2 x recently I have encountered this issue, one was when a road was completely closed for 24 hours due to a thatched cottage being on fire and 80 firefighters across the road - the app only showed 1 lane closed so clearly other drivers encounter this issue, and yesterday in central Milton Keynes a road was closed but the app screen on my car only showed 1 lane closed. Please review the system to mirror mobile phones to systems in cars to prevent delays and traffic hold-ups as drivers…

Potential Mobile Speed Trap Location Alert
There are many locations where Police Camera vans stay. These are often the same location, and often around bends so its too late once they see you. You should add to the map, just like with speed cameras, potential mobile speed trap. This would allow everyone to be alert at all times, then if the vans are there, Wazers can further report Police just as usual. This would prevent speeding earlier on rather than when someone finally reports the presence of police. For example, this could be done by adding a new icon e.g. a van symbol, with an audio…
