Sloping / inclined streets
In Latam and some other cities I have known, there are streets with inclines of more than 15° and some vehicles cannot drive up these roads due to several factors.
1) low power vehicles
2) Motorcycles
3) climatic factors that prevent the vehicle to go up this road.
4) vehicles parked on the sides that prevent other vehicles from passing.It would be interesting to make waze as well as avoid freeway roads we can add the inclination and avoid it.

Animal Alert on the Road
Good morning,
I would like to make a suggestion: in Portugal there are many abandoned animals that walk on the road, which is a danger for them and causes many accidents.
I would like there to be an "animal on the road" warning to warn drivers of the danger.
Thank you very much for your excellent work.12 votes -
Drive now should be optional
The 'drive now' banner that appears after the new update is very disruptive on android auto. It is not needed. Should be optional as the banner blocks the map behind. To try and then disable it, is difficult and time consuming while driving and could be dangerous. Can it be made optional i.e. only make it appear if a setting is switched on or only bring it up when required. The design assumption that has been made is probably down to assuming that everything is touch screen. Some old android auto systems are being controlled through buttons and wheels. Please…

Add option allowing your URs to be posted under your username (not anonymoulsy)
It has been said numerous time that due to private data protections, URs are always posted anonymously.
However, many editors use the UR system as a mean to "take notes" of problems during a trip, and then will correct deal with those UR when on WME after the trip.
However, those URs are always marked as anonymous on WME and other editors often start to reply those UR not knowing that those were done by other fellow editors. This leads to a lost of time, since those UR should be considered as "already watched by another editor".
The proposition is…

Use Traffic Light as Reference to Turn
Tell users where to make a turn such as "at the light" or "the next light" like Apple Maps. This is better than suggesting to turn in # of miles.

Allow speed bumps to be reported from app
In India, due to the high number of speed bumps in all cities, it is really difficult for the volunteer editors to get to all speed bumps in time.
It would be really nice to report the speed bumps from the app while driving like a pothole report. Since speed bumps do not vanish immediately, they could stay on the app and then reconfirmed by other Wazers.
Please also allow it to be reported from app, Car Play and Android Auto as our Wazers are spread all over.

Entry points depending on vehicle type
Entry points depending on type of vehicle can be a very nice feature. For example, if you're driving a private vehicle and you're going to a mall, your entry point should be the parking lot, but for an Uber the entry point should be the front door of the place.

Put back two important alerts: Animal on shoulder of road and road kill.
An animal on the shoulder helps to alert drivers of potential hazards. I see a lot of deer on the roadside and can no longer alert fellow drivers.
Additionally, road kills are also dangerous. Somehow that option was removed. Why?7 votes -
police
Please reinstate the "Police on Other Side" feature. Reporting speed traps is the most useful reason to report police, and traffic moving in opposite direction will always be better suited to identify and report.

Signaler animal errant ou animal mort / Animal on road or roadkill
Bonjour,
Il faudrait remettre le bouton animal décédé sur la route
et ajouter animal errant, j'ai plus d'une fois voulu l'indiquer sur la carte mais cela n'existe pas !! et éviterait beaucoup d'accidents et d'animaux tués !The roadkill button should be put back on the map,
and add "stray animal", more than once I wanted to indicate it on the map but it doesn't exist!! and would avoid many accidents and animal deaths!11 votes -
Enable full control in the app using voice only
Add an option to interact with the app using voice control
for instance :
reporting an obstacle on the road using Siri/Google assistant,
rerouting to a new destination while driving,
share your location using a voice command.
All these options should prevent the user from touching the phone while driving and decrease distractions.
The convenience of using the app while talking only will increase the amount of users reporting , and interacting with the many options given in the app.
This will lead to more credible information to be provided for the users.9 votes
