Treat roads with RTC as routable pedestrian path
Right now, when trying to route to a destination on a closed road, it's pretty much like the road no longer exists and Waze will route to the nearest open road.
Sometimes, this means that users will be routed somewhere completely different, like to the middle of a highway, to the other side of a raildroad track into a completely different neighbourhood, etc.
Segments with RTCs on them should be treated as a routable pedestrian path: route the driver to the closest entry point.

International Land Border Wait Time Predictions
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature enhancement that could significantly improve the accuracy of ETA predictions for routes involving international land borders, such as those between the USA and Canada or the USA and Mexico.
Current Situation:
At present, it appears that Waze calculates ETA for routes involving international land borders based on general traffic data. This approach treats the border crossing as a regular segment of the journey, comparing travel times between points A and B without considering the unique delays associated with border crossings.Proposed Enhancement:
To provide more accurate ETAs and better routing…37 votes -
Stop navigation once you're "close enough" to the destination
Waze should have an option where it stops trying to re-route once you're close to the destination, especially when it is not possible to actually drive to the exact entry point for whatever reason.
Context:
I've got someone who has brought up routing issues to their destination a few times, and at least two or three local editors have made various changes. They now again have been saying that once they arrive, Waze wants them to exit the parking lot again, and make a huge detour just to return again to where they are already located.
I am convinced this…

Talmudic Measurements
In addition to the imperial and metric systems of measurement currently available on the Waze app, would it be possible to add another system, which the voice instructions would use? I’m thinking of the Talmudic system of measurement (tefakh, amah, ris, mil, parsah). Many in Israel would be interested in utilizing these measurements because it would be a practical application of a currently abstract system.

The voice of Kate
Please tell me that the nice Kate voice hasn’t been replaced with this new terrible one that is not pleasant to listen to, has awful pronunciation of certain directions and is a far cry from the lovely original Kate’s voice.
This one’s pronunciation of certain directions, such as “go straight on” sounds like a stroppy person who can’t really be bothered to speak and therefore barks a command that is both uncaring and unpleasant.
Please bring back the original Kate. Her voice was consistent. This one jumps all over the place; unnecessarily authoritative, belligerent, not bad sometimes but mostly simply…

Rota off-line com as interdições existente.
Olá, gostaria de propor que quando o waze estiver off-line, por qualquer que sege o motivo, que ele permanecesse com as informações de locais com interdição, as vezes cai a conexão e onde tem interdição, ele simplesmente ignora e da toda a rota errada, passando pelos locais com interdição, considerando que passe por locais com interdição, varias vezes ja aconteceu comigo, pensem nisso por favor, @renato-cpfl

New instructions for crossroad junctions/interchange
In the UK, there has been an ongoing debate on the most effective way to map crossroad junctions where drivers have to cross a main road without priority, as shown in this image:
https://imgur.com/bpKJi9RThe default instructions do not include guidance for routes that go straight, leading to URs for missing instructions even when no turns are required. As there's no instruction, the driver may not realise they have to give way/stop, leading to a potential accident.
If we were to add a "Continue" instruction, it may imply priority, which is not the case, and again, this may lead to…

PLEASE add an indicator for which direction for the next turn. It could be an arrow or a dot in one of the corners
When the upcoming turn is to be made from either of multiple lanes, it would be tremendously helpful to know which direction I am turning next, especially when the next turn is within a half mile. Many times if I get in the left lane to turn, I find out I have to get in the right lane to make the next turn in a few tenths of a mile. This becomes a risky change of lanes to be able to make the next turn. You could put an arrow on the screen or simply a dot in the top…

Stacked Lane Guidance
Ability to map "stacked" lane guidance.
A stacked lane is one where you have one lane turning into two. An example I have is here in Calgary AB Canada, we have a rail underpass that you make a right turn onto, but there is a median between the two lanes (its a one-way) and you need to be is the farthest lane access the left turn at the other side of the rail underpass.
And right now, we don't have the ability to show that the first right lane is "stacked lanes"

Añadir en España la opción de seleccionar GLP las gasolineras
Sería muy util poder seleccionar en españa que puedas elegir como combustible GLP, puesto que hay una gran cantidad de vehículos, tanto que salen de fábrica como los que se transforman, para poder planificar las rutas usando este maravilloso combustible alternativo

Future turns display
It could be beneficial to have future turns displayed on the screen. Sometimes there would be a right turn shortly after a left turn and it causes me to miss my turn just because I wasn’t aware of the follow-up turn. Having a few future turns displayed would be useful for drivers navigating in smaller roads where there could be many turns.

EV filter for fast charging (DC) and filter for slow charging (AC)
Choose to search for fast OR slow chargers exclusively (instead of mixed list currently showing).
Add a restrictive filter that on selection ónly displays Fast chargers (DC) when traveling long distances.
Add a separate restrictive filter showing only slow chargers (AC) for destination charging.
Please make the filter option available for Android auto as well.
