routes for caravans
Please create a category for those towing a caravan so that inappropriate routes are not offered.
I would rather travel further on a good road than be guided onto a narrow, winding, steep or unsafe surface when towing my caravan.
The risk of a collision with an oncoming vehicle travelling at high speed on a windy dirt road is very high when visibility is limited and there is no room to manoeuvre24 votes -
Make footpaths more distinguishable in the app
A footpath in the app is the same colour and barely a fraction of a millimeter thinner than a road, so it’s easy to miss where a driveable road ends and continues as a footpath. Changing footpaths to dashed lines just like in the browser Map Editor would 100% solve the problem.

Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS
Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS
John Stephen Rymell john.stephen.rymell@gmail.com
21:34 (8 minutes ago)
to Waze-Customer-Support, supportI would like to ask for the following feature to be added to make things clearer for UK drivers.
Add an additional notification icon for use in the UK which will allow us to distinguish between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS. UK drivers don't seem to understand that the POLICE icon is for POLICE SPEED TRAPS, and not just for whenever they see a POLICE car, and as they panic every time they see a police car they want…

Parking Lots Should Complete Navigation to a linked Place
Many Parking Lots were created with the big push a few years ago but never had much use other than the ones flagged as Public for downtown type parking areas.
For restricted type parking lots that only serve a single place, once a user enters the parking lot for the place, navigation should complete.
A link would need to exist between the parking lot area and the place point/area.
This would create a usefulness to these parking lot areas that were created, as currently they simply are clutter on the map and serve generally no purpose.

Improve prompts for U-turn
Currently when Waze gives a U-turn instruction the voice prompt is "Make a U-turn ON [name of street you are on]. The problem with this is everyone knows that a U-turn is "ON" the street you are on. However, the driver does not know WHERE to make the U-turn. Map editors routinely see Update Requests where the driver was given a U-turn instruction and thought the turn was at a different intersection than where Waze was instructing them to make the U-turn.
What would actually help the driver is if Waze informed the driver WHERE to make the U-turn. The…

Inclusive maps for color-blind people
I've been thinking of a problem Waze might find not that difficult to solve. Congestion leves are represented by different shades of colors, mainly yellows and reds. But lots of people around the world are color blind at some level, so the congestion colors are useless for them. I am suggesting that instead of simply using the plain shades of the colors, Waze star using hatched colors. This might be really helpful to a lot of people. Besides, this would help build an inclusive culture and policy.

CarPlay update
Waze is super useful in car over my cellphone (iPhone)
However, once plugged into my car with CarPlay, the experience is worst that ever. In fact, the CarPlay interface of the app does not support all functions offered in the mobile version such as :
1. Unable to signify a fixed radar photo
2. Unable to specify the police specification (visible, hide, opposite side)
3. Unable to launch a SOS and so on
In fact, the types of available notices is so small.In addition, you can’t find a gas station easily as in the app cause you don’t have…

Alert for run-down animals
English: We members of a robotics team created a new Waze alert. Imagine how much will be feasible alert when someone saw or trampled an animal? Usually the people don’t know what do when they trample an animal, if the Waze has this option the rescue of these animals will be easier of be accomplished and the animals will not die for staying for a long time waiting to they be ransomed.
Will have an animal run-off alert (just as they already exist the camera alerts, per example) when the user to click on this alert he will notify if…24 votesHey,
