STOP THE TRAIN button
Besides the great idea for navigating around blocked crossings, how about when YOU are stuck on the RR and you can't get off? Press the STOP THE TRAIN (button within WAZE, or a stand alone app). A message is sent off to DOT.GOV and the RR. Hopefully the RR operation center can get the the signal changed withing a few minutes. I am making a suggestion to them at rrswebinquiries@dot.gov so they could develop this app and the needed database of locations codes by position.
BY THE TIME A TRAIN SEES A PROBLEM, THE TRAIN CANNOT STOP.

speedlimits
Timebased Speedlimits.
There are so many zones where in a specific timeframe you have a speedlimit.
for example 7:00 am till 6:00 pm 30km/h all other time 50km/h

Announcements depending on speed
I recommend that Waze adjust the "trigger distance" for pre-alerts when traveling quickly.
For example, currently Waze pre-alerts "In one-tenth of a mile ..." regardless of speed.
If you are driving 60 MPH, you cover the one-tenth of a mile in a mere 6-seconds ... by that time, Waze is already alerting you (AGAIN) that it's time to make the turn.
I'm all for voice alerts ... but when the app gabs for 10-seconds straight because of back-to-back announcements, eh....

Ability to clear old reports
There needs to be a way to clear old/outdated reports. My drive home today was littered with reports from 5, 7, 9 days ago. They just clutter up the screeen and distract from important, relevant information

Some kind of API for updating gas prices automatically
Some (smaller) gas stations in Europe do publish their gas prices online. It would be nice if we can either push these prices to the Waze database or have Waze pull them like every day or so.
I would be more than happy to write some code to convert the provided data into a suitable format.For example: Oeral Lommel (Luikersteenweg 313, 3920 Lommel, Belgium) has the current prices published on their website, see:
http://www.oeral.be/index.php?nav=stations&stationid=51
I would be more than happy to write a small application that would convert these and push them to the appropriate landmark.
Currently there's no…6 votes -
I would like to search for specific Waze users.
I have friends on Waze and would like to be able to see where they are. So a search for a specific user would be great.

To be able to report something on a road you are near to but not actually on, a road you can see or hear but your car is not on that road
I tried to do so today and could not not report it on the nearby road right near me but also could not fix the error when it tried to pick the road I was on instead of the road I was near. More editing capability to unreport something erroneous and to touch the nearby location and say the problem was there, not where I was standing but where I could see/hear.

adjust hazard reporting to include where the problem is, IE left Shu
Location of Hazard/Accident: It would be extremely helpful to be able to identify where a Hazard or Accident is IE: Left or Right Shoulder, Left or Right Lane or Center lane. This would allow wazers to adjust there positioning on the road to get through the problem area quicker by knowing to stay on the opposite side of where the problem has been reported.

Automatically open keyboard after passenger confirmation
At least on the Android client, after hitting the passenger confirmation button, the keyboard does not automatically pop up. The user must press in the blank a second time. Please program the keyboard to open immediately after pressing "passenger".

Mark recommended maneuvers at intersections unsafe or impractical
Waze should let users mark intersections where heavy traffic makes turning left or going through it as Waze directs hazardous or impossible. A turn that makes sense off peak may cause an accident if attempted at rush hour. Conversely, crossing a busy boulevard with six lanes of traffic at an uncontrolled intersection at rush hour may be possible, but only if one waits ten minutes

Use the telephone acceletor to get data about road quality
Use the telephone acceletor to get data about the general quality of the road. I live near roads that your phone would be shaking constantly. The accelerometer can be useful to give an overall quality rating for each segment.
Then waze could have an option prefer to choose good roads when routing.

Add a service that will put pings/icons on the maps to show yard sales and allow these maps accessible on all platforms not just devices.
Add a service that will put pings/icons on the maps to show yard sales and allow these maps accessible on all platforms not just devices. You could also expand this to all local community events, school functions for charity like carwashes etc. As far as I know there is nothing currently available for live updates of yardsales and things of that nature. As a mother in a small community that has no need for any apps currently available, this is one I would pay for. Even in this small community, with my gps, I have trouble finding yard sales.

Traffic reports should end at logical intersection
Traffic reports should end at the next logical intersection: I am active with reporting traffic, because I hope the people leaving after me benefit from the reports. The cars stopped on the road don't care about the map editor and, most times, the traffic is at least running through to the next intersection.
That being said, MANY of my traffic reports stop randomly due to the segments drawn in the map editor. This is illogical.
(I get 'yelled at' for multiple reports when I try to update the true distance of the dead-stop traffic and this would be an easy…
