wildlife hazard
The inclusion of a "Hazard: Wildlife" sign is essential for several reasons, primarily centered around safety and consideration for both people and animals.
Safety for Humans: Wildlife can pose significant risks to individuals, especially in areas where human activity intersects with natural habitats. Encounters with large animals, such as deer or bears, can lead to dangerous situations, particularly on roads or hiking trails. A warning sign helps to alert individuals to potential wildlife crossings, reducing the likelihood of accidents.
Preventing Wildlife-Related Incidents: By clearly marking areas where wildlife may be present, we can minimize human-wildlife conflicts. This is crucial in…

Waze often tells drivers to turn too far from the actual turn, possibly causing wrong way drivers
I have noticed that when approaching a turn, Waze often tells me to turn several hundred feet before a turn, without indicating that the turn is still several hundred feet away.
I believe that this may be contributing to wrong way crashes on highways. When approaching a highway entrance ramp that will be coming up on the left, many highway intersections will have the off ramp for the opposite direction first. Being told to turn when the wrong road/driveway is next to me has caused me confusion For someone who is tired or impaired, being told to turn at the…2 votes -
Conditional speed zone
Where I am, and I'm sure many others, there are school and park zones that have different speeds for certain hours. It would be nice to have the ability to have speed zones that change according to the times.

Rotational speed camera
Where I am we have permanent speed camera emplacements, but only 2 cameras that are rotated throughout these emplacements. It would be nice to be able to alert wazers to the presence of these, as Waze's current policy is to not allow temporary cameras to be mapped.

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.

Ability to reduce number of times a roundabout warning is given
Can we have a setting in Waze that limits the number of times a traffic warning is issued? (I'm thinking primarily of roundabouts.) It's annoying to get warnings multiple times when approaching a roundabout - one warning would be sufficient.

Avisar em qual faixa existe acidentes
Avisar em que faixa de rodagem estão os acidentes. Quando existem 2 bastava avisar direita ou esquerda e se existem 3 bastava avisar no meio
Este aviso deve ser atempadamente.2 votes -
hazardous goods restrictions
"Hello, would it be possible to integrate transport restrictions for hazardous goods, such as tunnels and the detours to bypass them, into the application? This would help thousands of drivers simplify their routes. I have a file listing all the tunnels in France with their categories and locations to make the integration task easier for you."

Route default to map view instead of list view
I understand my route more if I visually see it. The default to showing me the list of routes is kind of annoying because I always want to see where I'm headed versus reading where I'm headed.

"This route avoids tolls" when avoid-tolls option is on.
Suggestion: A note that "This route avoids tolls" when avoid-tolls option is on.
We (and others too) had that we were taking a much longer route (more than 40 minutes extra!) because we didn't realize that avoid-tolls is on...
Thanks so much!

Alert ideas.
You used to have roadkill on road, animal on shoulder, please bring them back.
Road kill on road with the ability to say which lane would be helpful. Thank you.2 votes -
Proffesional route planning for driving instructors, examiners, support people.
The basic element of the practical driving test in Great Britain is independent driving for 15-20 minutes. Accurate route planning would be an excellent tool for training driving license candidates by professional instructors. Currently, no provider offers such a tool. If the company is interested, I can propose solutions. Anyone who suggests such a tool can count on increased interest in maps in every country with navigation in its examination system.

Horses
I travel through an area where wild horses run across roads or simply stand close to shoulder in herds. Almost every other day I post it as a pot hole to alert other Waze users passing. I think the app could use an option; multiple horse icon for herd or 2+, left side and right side

In motorcycle mode make all choice options timed so they go away without need to press an option (not possible while riding, or in gloves)
New route available options make Waze useless on a motorcycle. They cover the speedo and cannot be selected without stopping, removing glove and pressing a choice. I had to stop three times today. I have a bluetooth controller on the bike but that seems to get disabled when these announcements appear so stopping is the only option. I am using the motorcycle mode with motorcycle selected as my vehicle.

Lentidão do Waze quando se faz uma conversão
O Waze é muito bom, tem aviso de radares para evitar multas.PORÉM, o Google faz questão de MANTER O WAZE LENTO NAS CONVERSÕES, demora a atualizar o mapa, dificultando para o motorista tomar a direção correta, principalmente quando há diversas alternativas direcionais. Isso causa entrar erradamente numa via. Será que assim é programado para facilitar a concorrência para o Google Mapas?!

Improve Visibility of Speed Limits and Warnings
Regarding the visibility of speed limits and speed warnings in the app. As someone who is nearsighted, I often struggle to read these important alerts while driving, especially without my reading glasses which one cannot wear while driving.
I recommend adding an option to adjust the font size for speed limits and warnings. This could include options for small, medium, and large formats, allowing users to select a size that works best for their vision.
Enhancing readability would greatly improve the driving experience for those of us with visual and/or hearing impairments. Thank you for considering this feature!

I think it would be great to actually show the political borders and subdivisions
I think it would be great to actually show the political subdivision borders, at least the state borders although county or town or international borders would be even better

There are no streets near the destination - Map Problem
When we have a location registered in Waze or Google and there are no nearby streets that can route the user there, Waze displays the error: Could not locate end point
My suggestion is that Waze should map Google/Waze locations, identify those that are too far from a street, and create a Map Problem (MP) in the Waze map editor so that we can check whether the street needs to be drawn or whether to simply close the MP as unidentified.

As a motorcycle user
Not all motorcycle users have an intercom, and while driving the motorcycle we cannot hear alerts, radars, accidents, police. It would be good if, given these notifications, The entire mobile screen flashes, to visually alert. Dashboard type in MotoGP.
