Map UK police ANPR scanners
I like to suggest that UK police ANPR scanners are crowd-mapped and potentially included as an option that one might like to avoid when navigating
Background:
Police have set up thousands of number plate scanners in the UK which record passing traffic including images of front passengers.These create motion profiles which are stored on non-public database regardless of suspicion or explicit consent with no right to view your own data).
Camera locations are not published also even though ANPR cams are visible for people who know what they look like.
WAZE could crack this lack of informational self-determination and…

Driving mode
Waze need a "Driving mode" switch within settings. I'm a Waze user, I use Waze from my car radio 7.5" screen and the only difference is more space for map view. By "Driving mode" is bigger buttons, bigger texts on street names and notifications. While driving you should not need to force reading or hitting a button... It's just an idea that I'm sure will improve a lot Waze usability while driving.

Increase the notification for speed traps
The warning for speed traps was probably intended for when a trap is sited on the same road as the motorist. Some traps are now being located on higher elevations (road bridges that cross the target road or higher ground) that provide a greater line of sight and thereby rendering the normal speed trap warning insufficient. I would happily receive a warning at least a mile out from a trap, instead of seeing the trap before the alert occurs.

Please add to apple car play the function to easily search for points of interest such as parking or fuel. You can do this on the app but there isn’t a way to do this on car play. You have to use voice search or type in manually “parking”

Premium user / tipping users for correctly placed speed traps
It would be nice to give some incentive to users to actually use correctly this app.
What do i mean by that?
- The first and most dangerous obviously it is a speed trap. I would give immediately my half of speeding ticket to users that saved me from that.
- More users would be drawn to the Waze and we could have more information, because there is a reward for being useful
- We could have hotspots, that means, zones where is frequently reported some police activity, even if it isn't reported today, beware it might be something.
I would happily pay…

Greater User Customization
I love using Waze and have for years. Traffic congestion alerts and auto reroute around such congestion is awesome. Alerting police presence is also great. When I first stated using Waze I was simply commute a short distance. Today I’m clocking over 40,000 miles a year and as a road warrior I now listen to a lot of podcasts and audiobooks and Waze is constantly interrupting what I’m listening to. The alerts are endless and I’m prompted 4 times for every turn. My podcast is even interrupted to alert me to train tracks. This is unnecessary - all I need…

Nu functioneaza Waze. Nu se centreaza acea sageata. Am aceste probleme de cateva zile.
Sa se infiinteze un numar de telefon sau o adresa de email, unde sa putem lua legatura cu Asistenta. Aplicatia Waze ajuta foarte multi soferi, in special, pe cei care fac Uber, de aceea centrarea locatiei in timp rapid este de mare nevoie.

Incorporate with Mercedes-Benz Navi system
Great if waze can be incorporated into MB Navi system or as an app. Waze is more up to date, shows current traffic quality, and it would be safer to report hazards, etc.

Give us a button to disable sleep mode.
Every time I open CarPlay Waze is stuck in sleep mode. Then I have to open the app on my phone, then kill the app and reopen it. Waze will be stuck at a former location on the map until I do this. It’s really annoying on my Harley. The phone is tucked in to the dashboard. I have to pull over and stop to get the phone out and open and kill the app. Or make the app come out of sleep automatically when CarPlay connects. Just make it work better.
