3. Display shield AND road name in the app

   Please consider displaying one or more shields along with a road name in the app. Ideally, we could have the option to display more than one shield, but at least one would be very helpful. Other nav apps already do this today.

   Currently, we can either display a single shield on a road OR the primary road name. Many roads are known by a common name but also have one or more shields that can be very important for navigation. Some intersections have a road name sign, while others only have a shield sign. Frequently, locals may know the road by the route # even though it also has a common name.

   Because of the ambiguity, it can be very difficult for editors to decide which to display in the app. Guidance already varies by state and valuable time is still wasted today on debates over different approaches given the display limitation and perceived local preferences. But I believe everyone agrees there isn't a solution that requires no compromises and works everywhere.

   It's understood that this would be a significant effort and would likely require a change in the WME to identify exactly what will be displayed. Perhaps some people will chime in with suggestions. Editors have already wasted a lot of editing time investigating, testing, and implementing hacky workarounds (and continue to do so today), so I believe the effort will be worth it -- for editors and app users.

4. טיימר לעקיפה בטוחה בכביש הערבה

   הבעיה:
   הקטע שבין צומת הערבה לצומת קטורה בכביש 90, באורך של כ-120 ק"מ, נחשב לאחד הקטעים המסוכנים בישראל. מרבית הדרך חד-נתיבית לכל כיוון, ללא אפשרות עקיפה בטוחה – וזה יוצר לחץ, נהיגה תוקפנית ומצבים מסכני חיים על בסיס יומי.
   בין השנים 2000 ל-2020 נהרגו בכביש הערבה כולו 81 בני אדם, כאשר חלק גדול מהתאונות נגרמות עקב עקיפות מסוכנות בקטעים שאינם מאפשרים עקיפה בטוחה.
   הצעה לפיצ'ר מציל חיים:
   Waze תוסיף התראה מתקדמת – טיימר בצד המסך או הודעה קולית/חזותית – שתעדכן את הנהג מראש על קטע דו-נתיבי מתקרב:
   🕒 "בעוד 2.4 ק"מ – קטע דו-נתיבי לעקיפה בטוחה"
   ⏳ "המתן עוד 90 שניות – נתיב עקיפה מתקרב"
   למה זה חשוב?
   • מחקרים בפסיכולוגיה ובתחום התחבורה מראים שכאשר אנשים לא יודעים מתי תגיע ההזדמנות הבאה לפעולה (למשל, לעקיפה), תחושת חוסר השליטה גוברת – וזה מעלה את הסיכון לפעולות אימפולסיביות ולא זהירות.
   • בנוסף, נמצא שברגע שאדם יודע כמה זמן נותר להמתין – קל לו יותר להתאפק. עיקרון זה מיושם בהצלחה בתחבורה ציבורית (לוחות זמנים בזמן אמת) וברמזורים עם ספירה לאחור, ומשפר משמעותית את רמת הסבלנות והשליטה העצמית של המשתמשים.
   השורה התחתונה:
   פיצ'ר פשוט. השפעה עצומה.
   בכביש שבו עשרות בני אדם נהרגו – כל שיפור קטן בהתנהגות הנהגים יכול להציל חיים.

   בברכה,

   Countdown to Safe Overtaking on Highway 90 (Arava Road)
   The Problem:
   The section between Arava Junction and Ketura Junction on Highway 90, approximately 120 km long, is considered one of the most dangerous stretches of road in Israel. Most of the road is a single lane in each direction, without safe overtaking options – leading to pressure, aggressive driving, and daily life-threatening situations.
   Between 2000 and 2020, 81 people were killed on the Arava section of Highway 90, many of them in accidents caused by dangerous overtaking where no safe passing zones were available.
   A Life-Saving Feature Suggestion:
   Waze could add a smart alert – a timer on the side of the screen or a visual/audio notification – that informs drivers about the next upcoming safe overtaking section:
   🕒 "In 2.4 km – Two-lane road ahead for safe overtaking"
   ⏳ "Wait 90 seconds – Safe passing zone approaching"
   Why it matters:
   • Studies in psychology and transportation show that when people lack visibility or control, especially on monotonous roads with no clear overtaking options, their frustration and risk-taking behavior increase.
   • Research also shows that when drivers know how long they need to wait, patience rises, and impulsiveness drops. This principle is successfully used in countdown timers at crosswalks, traffic lights, and public transit – and could be just as effective in driving apps.
   Bottom line:
   A small feature. A massive impact.
   On a road where dozens have lost their lives – even a small shift in driver behavior could save lives.

6. Truck routes

   Waze dev team,

   Please consider an option for drivers (Waze users) to enter in their vehicle height so that Waze can provide them with suitable routes, avoiding routes with low bridges/clearance?

   This would be applicable for truck drivers, tradespeople with work vans and work equipment on roof as well as casual drivers with trailers.

   Reason for this is to avoid the frequent low bridge collisions or congestion due to truck having to back out of road.

   In Australia, prior to GPS maps such as Waze or Google Maps, we used to have truck edition of paper maps or map books such as MELWAYS.

7. Make the speed limit and speed bigger

   The speed limit and current speed are so small on the screen you can’t really see it when glancing - needs to be a similar size as the one on Google maps abs Apple Maps and make it so it’s easily readable

10. "Satellite View"

    Greetings Waze associates,

    Please add a feature/tool/option that enables a different and realistic map view, much like Google Maps "Satellite View". There's several satellite imagery providers that offers good pictures at reasonable prices, so choosing any shouldn't be an issue.

    Thank you for your time reading my suggestion.

                      Sincerely, Mr. Leon

11. Display more (limited) house numbers at destination

    Short version: When approaching your destination display not only the pin for the address that you're arriving at, but also one, two or three addresses before and after the address. Example: navigating to 122 Main St would show up with the navigation pin, but also show a small number 114 and 118 before, and 126 and 130 after the pin.

    When working for a delivery app like Door Dash, Uber Eats, Uber, Lyft, Instacart, Walmart Spark, Amazon Flex, Grub Hub, etcetera you're just trying to get to the location, drop the package, and move on to your next delivery. Often times it's very difficult to see any house numbers on the buildings themselves as much of this happens after dark and people for some reason don't like to turn on their porchlights (reddit is complete with complaints for this on any of the delivery subs). When using the built in GPS for whichever app you're talking about it will typically display not only the various house numbers as you get closer to the destination but also a polygon. I'm sure the polygon would be out of the question, but just having the house numbers displayed for a few before and after the destination would be immensely helpful. Imagine you're waiting for a delivery of food, there's your house and two others on your side of the road, and your driver gets to your house only to stammer for a few minutes not sure which house to deliver to.

14. Speed limit icon too small

    I absolutely love this app—it's my go-to navigation tool, and I wouldn't be taking the time to give this feedback if I didn’t value it so much.

    During my first big ride out last weekend, I noticed one significant issue: the speed limit icon(the red circle) is simply too small. I find myself having to shift my focus and move my eyes about six inches from the screen just to read it.

    While I understand I shouldn’t rely solely on the app for speed limit confirmation, it’s incredibly useful in a pinch. Ideally, the icon should be about the size of a UK 10 pence piece on a standard phone screen for better visibility.

    That’s all! Thanks for your time, and I appreciate your consideration.

19. Feature Proposal: Visual Markers for Start and End of Average Speed Zones

    Dear Waze Team,

    We are writing to you on behalf of the community of volunteer map editors and Waze app users in the Czech Republic. We would like to propose a new feature that, in our opinion, would significantly refine and clarify the display of average speed camera zones on the map.

    Currently, we lack an effective way to visually mark the precise start and end points of an average speed zone on the map. We therefore propose two possible solutions:

    1. A New Icon with No Sound Alert: We propose the introduction of a new, non-audible icon that editors could place at the beginning and end of a measured section.

    Visual Design: The icon could visually resemble the existing speed camera icon, or be only slightly modified, to maintain visual consistency.
    Key Feature: The most crucial aspect is that this icon would not generate any sound or voice alert. Its function would be purely informational, similar to the existing "fake speed camera" (placeholder) icon.

    1. Automatic Zone Display on the Map: An alternative, or complementary, solution would be the automatic visual highlighting of the start and end of the section directly on the app's map. As a driver approaches an average speed zone, the app would, in addition to the standard warning, display distinct points or lines on the map indicating exactly where the measurement begins and ends.

    Important Clarification:
    We want to emphasize that this proposal does not in any way affect the existing voice and visual warnings for the average speed zones themselves. We wish for these primary alerts to be fully retained in their current, functional form. Our goal is solely to supplement this feature with a precise and silent visual delineation of the zone.

    We believe that implementing one of the proposed options would provide drivers with valuable and clear information, improve the accuracy of the map data, and enhance the overall user experience of the Waze app.

    Thank you in advance for considering our suggestion.

    Sincerely,

    Tomas-CZ
