Add Highway Vignette expiration support
In Hungary (and in most of the nearby countries) Highway vignettes can have multiple expiration days: 1 year, 10 days, 1 month, etc. It would be great, if Waze would know/track, if a certain vignette is expired and avoid routing on the highways ( or ask if I've purchased a new one)

Show visual instructions for "View Only"
For a View Only instruction, only a "Continue" instruction is currently shown in the app along with the lanes. It should also show visual instructions that are set by editors in the WME Turn Instructions panel.

Add “Avoid Width Restrictions”
I’ve got a pretty big car and hate width restrictions when I’m driving through the rat race of London rushing to get to work.
If you can add “Avoid Width Restrictions” any road with a width restriction that would really help! Thanks !17 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Traffic lights option button
Hello wazers. There are some traffic lights that are fast enough to pass through and some others that are extremely slow (2-3 cars per time). Waze commonly proposes directions through traffic lights (Even when there are other options).
I think that a “traffic light” option button that characterizes it as slow or fast, would be a good addition in order to accelerate our proposed roots17 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Android Auto app without head unit
Please update Android auto functionality to include those of use just using the Android auto app on our phones and not through a vehicle head unit. I would love to finally be able to use Android auto, as I have been waiting for Waze to be supported, but I don't have an Android auto head unit.

update alerts for other side of road
I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs to…17 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Enable automatic night mode for tunnel segments
It would be a nice addition to Waze to get automatic night mode for tunnel segments.
We're already adding the necessary information for this feature when creating tunnel segments.

Need improving favorite / search
I have idea about favorite / search
- Why not let Waze search address from my contact list?
- Why not create folder in favorite? Like Friend, Company, Restaurant, etc.
- When click address on contact, link to Waze instead iPhone's map
That would be great!

why is there no ambulance car option? and option to show hospitals on map? I am an EMT who uses Waze at work all the time!
Add ambulance icon to car options, and an option to show hospitals, maybe even the closest ER facility to current location! I use Waze all the time at work as an EMT, and while the first suggestion would just be a treat for those, like me, in the EMS field, the second option would have the ability to assuage new EMTs fears of not knowing the closest hospital facility (we cover ALL of Colorado, though mainly Denver metro area, but still a huge area to learn when you're new).

An option to avoid minor / tertiary/ un named roads
Can we please have an option for routing not using minor roads. These are often narrow, unsurfaced, roads, dangerous tootor cyclists, risking damage to cars and larger vehicles. GPS nav should assist, not cause undue stress.

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.

Adding the option for a visual timer
It would be so helpful to have an integrated visual timer on the map. My child has a disability and visuals are so important to our daily life. I find myself toggling back and forth when using navigation and it can be difficult to manually adjust the time when there’s traffic or other delays. Having an integrated visual timer would be so helpful to families like ours!

Allow longer time to report road closure.
When I come upon a road closure, I need to avoid emergency vehicles and workers, and be careful of other traffic. Once I get clear of the incident, I try to report it. But by that time, Waze won't let me select the intersection where the problem was. It seems that you must be in the immediate are of the road to report an issue. This often means that I am unable to report road closure issues when I encounter them. Waze should allow a longer time to report closures. (Why is there any limit at all? I may feel…

Radar Traject Control android auto
When you use Android Auto you can't see how long Radar Traject Control is or when it is finished. (green bar when you use Waze on smartphone)
It could be nice to implement it (below the traject info) in Waze Android auto.

Average speedcheck or traffic jam progress bar in horizontal mode or when using android auto
Currently the progress bar is only available in vertical mode.
If you hold you phone horizontal the progress bar goes away. For traffic jams this is not really a big problem. But when driving through an average speed check, it is handy to see how far along the average speed check you are. There is also no notification at the end of an average speed check. This would already make it a lil handier to hear when an average speed check zone has ended.12 votesHey,

Be able to show an accident or hazard for the opposite side of the road. Many times, we'll see it on the opposite side.
Many times, we see accidents on the opposite but when we report it, it says our side.
