"Avoid Car Trains" option
An "Avoid Car Trains" option would be amazing. Just the same as "Avoid Ferries" option that already exists. Maybe it is not such a big problem but I often travel in Switzerland and Italy by car and often it brings me to a dead end where i have to get on the train with my car. What if i dont want to go by train?

Make mobile speed camera alerts bi-directional on divided highways / 4-lane roads
Hello Waze Team and Community,
I would like to suggest an improvement to how mobile speed camera alerts work on divided highways and 4-lane roads.
Currently, when a user reports a mobile speed camera, Waze only alerts drivers traveling in the same direction as the reporter. However, police tactics have evolved. In Estonia (and many other countries), traffic police now frequently park on one side of a 4-lane highway but set up their mobile cameras to measure the speed of cars moving away from them on the opposite side of the road, or capturing traffic in both directions across the…2 votes -
On the Waze incident reports feature it should allow us better options to report things such as traffic, police, road closures and much more
On the Waze incident reports feature it should allow us better options to report things such as traffic, police, road closures and much more as currently on the road closure reporting feature it only limits the roads and streets that wazers have been using lately and also it doesn’t all ow you to update or chat with other waze people that are on the app. everyday there are new roads and traffic incidents being genrated and the waze should allow and post all incidents that are updated on a daily basis instead of the app not getting updated with newer…

Add an "Emergency Vehicle" routing profile for first responders
Please add a dedicated navigation profile for emergency vehicles (ambulances, fire trucks) in Italy and Europe. First responders need routing that takes into account that they can legally drive through restricted camera-enforced areas (ZTL) and bus lanes during a call. Waze currently forces emergency drivers to use hacks like the 'taxi' profile, but a proper first responder mode is urgently needed to optimize rescue times.

Multiple volume presets for different audio outputs
It would be great if I could preset guidance volume for separate audio devices. I only need 50% guidance volume with CarPlay, but when I use my Cardo helmet coms on my motorbike I need the volume to be maximum so that I can hear the guidance.

support turn-by-turn navigation instructions in the BMW Head-Up Display (HUD)
Hi Waze Team,
Is there any roadmap or estimated release date for Waze to support turn-by-turn navigation instructions in the BMW Head-Up Display (HUD) via Apple CarPlay, as Google Maps and Apple Maps already do?
Currently, Waze navigation directions can be displayed in the digital instrument cluster, but not in the HUD, even on vehicles that support this functionality through CarPlay with other navigation apps.
This would be a valuable improvement, allowing drivers to see navigation instructions directly on the windshield without taking their eyes off the road.
Is this feature under development? Is there an estimated release date or…

Change the interface buttons to the left on wide screens
On new cars that have a quite wide screen, the interface buttons are quite far way from the driver. It is difficult to reach the buttons ( for alerts, for search, etc).

Audio navigation alert assist
Considering that many modern vehicles already use spatial audio or directional sound to assist drivers, I would like to suggest an enhancement to the Waze navigation experience.
Today, several parking assistance systems and 360-degree camera solutions use directional audio cues, allowing drivers to intuitively identify the location of nearby obstacles. For example, an obstacle located at the rear-left side of the vehicle generates a sound that is perceived more strongly from that direction, while an obstacle at the front-right side is emphasized accordingly.
Building on this concept, Waze could apply directional audio to navigation instructions. When approaching a right turn,…

Warnings for cameras or police need to be much sooner. At least 150% sooner. Otherwise this feature is near useless

I am a police traffic officer, I would like to share my map location to Wazers where I am active driving in emergency mode or blocked roads.
When my in-car lights and siren is activated I can create a signal output, which would be able to turn on live GPS information so Wazers can see which direction I am going, if I'm in their way, and let them know if they might be in my direction. This way, Wazers can slow or choose a different direction if say a road is blocked due to a crash, or if it would help them move out of traffic so that they do not get hit by drivers that are not paying attention.

Bring-back the "share my drive" option.
You used to offer the option to watch someone's "share my drive" but have recently (in the last 30 days) decided to block this feature on the PC browser side of things. Now it just stupidly acts like I should "install on other mobile devices" option instead of an actual "share my drive" option like we used to be able to view. Please bring it back!

Dedicated report option for Incident Response & non-police emergency vehicles
In New South Wales, Transport Management Centre (TMC) incident response vehicles are frequently reported as “Police” on motorways like the M1 and M4 simply because of their flashing lights.
While it is valuable for drivers to know there is an incident response unit or roadside service ahead, misreporting them dilutes the utility of the “Police” alert, which should ideally be reserved for law enforcement (such as Highway Patrol).
Having a dedicated report category—such as “Incident Response / Service Vehicle” or a broader “Emergency Vehicle (Non-Police)” option under Roadside Hazards—would:
- Keep “Police” alerts accurate and focused on active enforcement.
- Give…

Output roundabout turn angle as metadata
My car has a heads-up display that will show an icon representing the next action in he turn-by-turn directions. One of the key ways this breaks when using Waze compared to Google Maps is when the turn is a roundabout. Waze's roundabout icon is a little vortex with a number in that tells you which # turn (counterclockwise) you need to take to follow the route, and it appears that it only outputs that information as metadata to Android Auto or the vehicle to be interpreted by systems like HUD. This results in my HUD always showing a hairpin right…

Suggestion: Allow Users to Report Temporary Road and Bridge Closures via the Waze Website
I'm getting quite frustrated with Waze, as multiple times during my commute from work to home, it has directed me towards bridges or roads that are closed due to construction work.
I think Waze should introduce an interactive map on its desktop website that allows users to easily report temporary road closures, bridge closures, roadworks, and other blockages.
Some features I'd like to see include:
- Report closures from a PC: Allow users to select a road or bridge directly on the map and report a temporary…
