1. Historic Markers - Option to listen to the text of nearby markers

   As a Waze user, I would like the ability to enable an option to display and/or listen to the text of nearby Historic Markers so that I can learn about historic places during my travels. Many times there is no place to pull over and read historic markers.

2. Waze CD for Autos

   I have been a Waze fan for a while. My car as nav, but it sucks, really sucks. One would think Lexus would have good nav system, but it does not. Can I buy a Waze program/CD for my car to use instead of the sucky Lexus mapping CD?

3. Map Zoom

   If I am on a Waze path trying to see where I go next, the zoom feature does not work all that well. I'd like to be able to zoom out to see where I am going and to check traffic, but the zoom only will go out for a second, then zooms back in. NOt a fan of this feature and finding myself using Google maps to check traffic and see a path on the map as opposed to Waze zoomed in on the next 500'. I cannot get the map to zoom out to a decent level.

4. New setting to allow for notifications when new (celebrity) voices are available

   I don't know how often Waze adds new voices, but I don't check every day and would HATE to miss any new additions.

5. Waze notifies you of toll roads approaching

   I drive around with Waze on there's no set destinations so I can know how traffic is Flowing, speed limits, hazards and such notifications as that. What waze should do is have a notification of toll roads if you are driving in their Direction if your avoid toll road option is on

6. WAZE needs to add REMOVE A BAD REPORT to your SEND A REPORT.

   I am TRYING to get people interested in how helpful WAZE is. This HURRICANE had made me question how useful WAZE is. People are putting up BARRICADES on the APP in places where the roads are CLEAR. Bad reports NEED to be deleted. I would LOVE to help, but i have to sit there and look at BAD INFO. When your town is partially under water like mine, having BAD INFO on WAZE adds to an ALREADY DEPRESSING SITUATION.

7. Allow reports while invisible.

   Not allowing reports while invisible, may cause customers to disappear. I use Waze even when I know where I'm going and have recommended it to more than I can count; however, report quantity/quality on police and accidents has gone down significantly since this change. Police do not need know who gave away their great hiding place.

8. Don't ask me for confirmation/denial on events so far ahead of me I can't possibly give anything but a guess

   It's super mega annoying when it asks me to confirm something that's not even close to being possible for me to confirm or deny. Ugh

9. Canal de áudio no Android

   No iPhone, os alertas se sobrepõem a qq entrada de áudio do carro, abaixando o som original para o alerta. No Android, só é possível ouvir alertas se estiver no modo de mídia do celular ou se mantiver o áudio pelo altofalante do celular.
   Se Eu estiver ouvindo rádio ou um pendrive, não ouço alerta algum!

10. WAZE navigation system could be adapted to the nation's railroad netword where it could become a new-technology Positive Train Control.

    Railroad Safety: a Ten Billion Dollar Boondoggle
    Carl E. Nash, Ph.D.
    Derailments and collisions between trains are spectacular. Their economic and environmental consequences are considerable and they kill and injure people. In response, over the past forty years, pressed by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and Congress the railroads have been implementing Positive Train Control (PTC) systems to reduce the potential for these crashes.
    Actually, U.S. railroads are quite safe for passengers. An average of only 5 people die in train crashes each year: slightly more than are killed in motor vehicle crashes in an hour. The number of serious injuries among train occupants is similarly low. On the other hand, nearly 700 “trespassers” die annually after being struck by trains while on or near railroad tracks and about 100 more are killed in vehicles struck by trains at grade crossings. These casualties are a consequence of two challenges: trains cannot be stopped quickly and it is difficult to keep people away from railroad tracks. PTC will do nothing for those struck by moving trains.
    The nation’s railroads and the FRA have spent about $10 billion on a variety of PTC systems and will apparently spend a few billion more to complete them. According to the FRA: “PTC systems are integrated command, control, communications, and information systems designed to prevent train accidents by controlling train movements with safety, security, precision, and efficiency.”
    Railroad transportation in the U.S. matured a century ago. Train dispatch, safety, maintenance, and such were mostly developed in the 20th century. More recent technologies are mostly used to provide an electronic substitute or enhancement of what had been done by hand. Modern communications are generally used as a substitute for the telegraph or telephones. It is an important, but hoary industry in desperate need of a 21st Century overhaul.
    Road users have the advantage of well-developed, real time, satellite-based navigation systems. There is no such unified system for railroads. Instead, the railroads are wasting their and the government’s money on ten duplicative, but not particularly compatible PTC systems that require very large numbers of expensive, high maintenance, and probably unreliable trackside sensors to monitor the position and speed of train sets. Since railroads regularly use each other’s’ tracks, this duplication is bizarre. Implementation of PTC has been delayed for years, at least in part because of the cost to complete it.
    
    The WAZE/Google navigation system provides not only information on where roads go, which can be used for trip planning, it also monitors traffic to show what the most rapid route is likely to be. It does this by monitoring, through satellite communications, the behavior of vehicles using this navigation system to determine areas of road congestion or other problems.
    
    Adapting this system to railroads would be relatively easy. WAZE/Google could substitute a map of the rail network for the road network and show the appropriate speed limit on all stretches of track as well as switch positions. This would be used to warn engineers if they are operating in a dangerous manner. In the event that an engineer ignores this warning, the receiver in the locomotive could automatically apply the train’s brakes.
    
    As with the highway system the positions and speeds all locomotives using the system, as determined using GPS, along with the positions of all switches in the system and the location of maintenance operations, could be sent through satellite to a central control where it would be monitored to determine the potential collision between trains.
    There are roughly 27,000 locomotives, some thousands of additional train sets not pulled by locomotives, and 140,000 miles of track in the United States. The cost of installing equipment to send and receive signals, for navigation, and for computer-based automatic braking would be less than $5,000 per locomotive and per switch for a total less than three hundred million dollars. (The cost of a real-time navigation system, along with automatic braking is less than $1000 per motor vehicle.) Software for adapting the highway navigation system to PTC and establishing a central control to warn of collisions would cost less than $100 million. Thus, an estimate of well under a billion dollars for all of the PTC hardware and software to implement a new, navigation-based PTC system seems reasonable. This is considerably less than the cost of completing the current PTC systems and could be paid by a consortium of railroads. If the will were there, it should not take more than about a year to implement this new system.
    A modern PTC could also become a basis for a more modern approach to railroad scheduling and management that could reduce costs and ensure more efficient use of the rail network. It could replace the current, antiquated, inefficient block system for regulating the use of rails. Because of industry competition and anti-trust considerations, it may require Congressional action to force national cooperation in establishing a unified 21st Century PTC system.
    The current approach to railroad safety is out of date and makes little sense. It lacks a rational connection with the reality of how most people are killed and injured in connection with railroads and the availability of effective technology. It results in ridiculous spending on what, at least in terms of human losses, is a relatively minor problem.
    PTC based on the technologies used for road navigation could substantially reduce human, equipment, and other losses from collisions and derailments. These savings would be sufficient to pay for the 21st century system based on the Google navigation system. It would also be an excellent business opportunity for WAZE/Google. The fact that billions have already been invested in PTC is irrelevant to the question of how the railroads should proceed with PTC. It must abandon the current wasteful development and start with a fresh approach as outlined herein.

16. Alerta de Velocidade do Radar

    Por que até hoje não há apresentação ou visualização da velocidade do radar ao alertar???

    Ao alertar por velocidade acima do radar, o alerta poderia cobrir a tela, ou metade dela, com a velocidade limite piscando em vermelho, e não discretamente no canto da tela...

17. Melhorar Visualização

    Estamos dirigindo e prestando atenção no trânsito, não dá pra ficar tentando ler coisas pequenasna tela do Waze...
    Ainda existem coisas na tela do Waze que deveriam ser maiores pra melhor visualização enquanto dirigimos.

    Na parte de cima, por exemplo, poderia aparecer o nome da via em que estamos, acima da próxima manobra, tal qual aparece no navegador do GMaps...

18. In New York City thr app constantly directs is to the Cross Bronx Expressway ie 95. NOBODY drives there because it is a parking lot of truck

    Stoo directing us to the Cross Bronx Expressway in NY city. Inhave to ignore your directions every time. ANYONE who drives in NYC avoids it like the plague. It is a parking lot of trucks. So over and over your directions are useless to me.
