Fuel availability reports in Ukraine
Hi there,
Most likely, you already know that Ukraine has been attacked by Russia. Since then, fuel availability has been a very critical issue.
The only way to figure out if the fuel is available is by going to the station. It's very risky, especially when you don't have a lot of fuel, to go through every station.
I suggest creating a feature of reporting if fuel is missing or available, and potentially enabling people to sign up for push notifications when it becomes available. This would be a HUGE help to lots of people in our country.

Stop blocking excessive reporting
There are a huge number of pot holes in Sydney due to the floods and rainfall. I was reporting each and every one until I got flagged for excessive reporting noting my account would be blocked from reporting. If this is designed to be a community app, remove this feature blocking people so we can save damage to our vehicles and potentially save lives.

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.

Organize Urs
It would be good if when there are many overlapping URs, clicking on one would open only one window and within it the nearby URs would be sorted by date and time. This way, if a user reports several times by mistake, there is no need to respond several times, which can lead to annoyance for this user. I think it would be better organized.

Rain or heavy rain weather report?
Hello waze team!
It would be great if waze could make a new hazard weather report on "raining" or "heavy rain" on the road. I believe it was sort of missing in hazard>weather report section.
Thank you for hearing me out.
Keep up the good work waze team!

Add voice message to Update Request to reduce time reporting map errors to car drivers.
Currently there is only text comment option which restricts the driver from adding details to the UR. Adding voice message could help to waze editor getting more specific information and minimize message asking additional information.
This functionality improve URs resolution statistics.

Ghost driver alert
A new alert would be interesting to have to alert drivers on a specific route that a ghost driver is coming their way and that they should be cautious, maybe telling them to stay in a lane and to reduce their speed.

Reporting closures from further away
Closures can currently only be reported if you're right next to the road. I can't always report it because I'm on a roundabout or having to redirect quickly so as not to cause traffic. However, I can pull over a road or two away to report it but the app doesn't allow this since I can only report it if I'm on or next to the closed road.
I think this is an essential feature that needs to be added because sometimes there aren't diversion signs and I have to find my own way around it without waze because it'll…15 votes -
Use Voice Commands to log Reports with Waze on CarPlay and Android Auto
While Waze allows users to use voice via their phones to log Reports, it does not support Voice to log Reports for users of Car Play and Android Auto. The fact that these users have to use the screen and potentially take their eyes off the road to navigate menus to log a report is quite dangerous. Please help vote this up, as more vehicles are now being equipped with Car Play and Android Auto. Thank you!

Store Map Issues Until they can be reported.
In Rural Areas of the US but not only US cell data coverage sometimes can be problematic and connection may go in and out. When the user attempts to report a map issue the report can be filled out but submission goes to an error message: "Something Went Wrong" and the report and the information is lost.
This can create problems with issues reported in Rural Areas where there is definite evidence of use of Waze but very few reports even though there are missing roads or missing pieces of data for the existing roads.
As a suggestion Waze should:

Message "Do not response by mail" when editor commented an update request
When an editor commented in an update request there are hinds in the mail from waze the user should answer per app or at the WME. In my opinion it's urgent to make clear the response per mail is not working. There should be a hint: "Do not reply by mail, it will not be delivered!"

Disable this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately
Dear Waze.
My name is Mykhailo. and i'm a QA lead from Ukraine in a similar product as you.
I've been using your app for years, which I'm thankful for.Today, in this dark age, our country use your app to get away from hot spots to west.
Although , the feature that expose Police spots helps russian's separatists escape.
PLEASE I'm begging you to disable (at least temporary) this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately .13 votes -

Speed and mobile phone camera detection
J think it would be a great idea to distinguish between different types of law enforcement, particularly in Australia. At the moment, mobile speed cameras, police and mobile phone detection cameras are all reported as “police”. To better improve this process, I think it would be a good idea to have a “law enforcement” report option (replaces current “police”, then the options such as “mobile speed camera”, “police”, “phone detection”. The “phone detection” and “mobile speed camera” should also have the option to report on the opposite side of the road like the “police” option currently has.

Colour rings around reports
Have colour rings around reported Hazzards on a timer. Eg it's red when first reported and stays red when the report "still there" button is pressed by re setting a timer. The ring turns blue after a set time until or unless the "not there" button is pressed and the report has been removed. This will let drivers know if the report is current and up to date or if it's an old report and has been ignored and not removed.
