  2. 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 !

  3. Road Condition Rating/Grades

    Showing potholes is a great feature especially in snowy climate. It would also be great to rate the road and conditions. Such as a block feature or an avoidance feature. I traveled 20mph on a road label 50mph due to how terrible the conditions was, it felt like I hit a speed bump every 40 yards. I would label this road a "D", if I could avoid these roads like a less than "C" feature, that would be awesome. User ratings paired with GPS acceleration compared to the speed limit could really help avoid these disastrous neglected road and pick…

  4. Hola, debido a el aumento de precios y que a los conductores les bajaron el pago, toda la comunidad que tenemos contacto en un grupo que usa

    Hola, debido a el aumento de precios y que a los conductores les bajaron el pago, toda la comunidad que tenemos contacto en un grupo que usabamos nos vemos en la necesidad de irnos por nuestra cuenta y desinstalar la app, pues ya no conviene, además de que ya no la recomendaremos, diciendo a las personas que hagamos lo mismo con nuestros conocidos. Sin embargo, si se les paga a los conductores lo justo, conviene más, y hablo como raider, a mi no importa que me cobren 20 o 30 pesos, me conviene, pero a ellos no les conviene. Ojalá…

  5. Waze - Plan my day route scheduling

    A great addition to the Waze App would be to have it plan my entire day or something as simple as errands. Start by entering a start time and a list of addresses to visit (e.g. drop-off kids, grocery store, and other errands....getting me back home in time to pick-up the kids at school at the end of the school day), Waze could optimize my route and schedule based on traffic and ETA. It might even choose the most effective route by reordering the destinations/waypoints. Other applications are for small businesses to do route planning to save time and fuel.…

  6. Car on right or left side of the road

    Letting drivers know what side of the road the car is on.
    The first report os just "car is on the the side of the road," once reported the next wazer can confirm which side right or left.
    This 2 step reporting is less distracting to drivers

  8. Place Photos

    To report a Place via the client, the user is required to first take a photo before entering any details.

    This process should be changed as it:

    • discourages Wazers from adding a Place if it is dark/raining or other factors prevent them from taking a satisfactory photo, and;

    • results in ineffective photos (blurry, dark, inappropriate) being added which do not fulfil the intended purpose of assisting other Wazers to identify the Place.

    Making Photos optional when adding a Place, and adding the ability to upload from the Camera Roll/Computer/etc, would improve the Waze map by enabling Wazers to add Places…

  9. COVID-19 Outbreak Tracking

    Provide daily COVID-19 Outbreak Tracking. Your app should display red shaded bubbles over areas with outbreaks, with the bubble size proportional to the outbreak size. For example right now on March 19, 2020, there would be a large shaded red bubble over New York City. This would correspond to the current outbreak in New York city, and advise motorist to avoid this area as a stopover or even as a drive-through. This could help motorists avoid contamination and/or travel delays in the future if there are “containment “ areas. (You could get the data feed from John’s Hopkins or others)

  10. Wrong way driver alert

    Wrong way driver alert. Alert wazers if they enter a freeway on ramp going in the wrong direction also alert other wazers with a loud audible alarm (much like the Amber alert alarm) that there is a wrong way driver approaching.

  13. New instructions for crossroad junctions/interchange

    In the UK, there has been an ongoing debate on the most effective way to map crossroad junctions where drivers have to cross a main road without priority, as shown in this image:
    https://imgur.com/bpKJi9R

    The default instructions do not include guidance for routes that go straight, leading to URs for missing instructions even when no turns are required. As there's no instruction, the driver may not realise they have to give way/stop, leading to a potential accident.

    If we were to add a "Continue" instruction, it may imply priority, which is not the case, and again, this may lead to…

  14. Pouvoir passer à différents modes voiture, vélo, caravane ou encore piéton.

    Pouvoir passer à différents modes voiture, vélo, caravane ou encore piéton. Mon vieux Gps Mio le faisait... c'était pratique. Le mode taxi ne concerne qui dans l'état actuel ? Un mode caravane aiderait aussi bien les conducteurs avec une caravane ou les Camping-cars en permettant d'avoir des axes principaux, ce pour éviter la déconvenue de petites routes de campagne, pas toujours aisées pour circuler avec les attelages et je dirai même bien souvent un calvaire.

  15. Ambulance / Fire

    You have an option to show where police are visible. Please add the option to show where EMS (ambulance / fire / rescue) are visible.
    This not only can serve to protect the EMS at a scene, it will also protect motorist coming up to an accident scene.

  16. Sloping / inclined streets

    In Latam and some other cities I have known, there are streets with inclines of more than 15° and some vehicles cannot drive up these roads due to several factors.

    1) low power vehicles
    2) Motorcycles
    3) climatic factors that prevent the vehicle to go up this road.
    4) vehicles parked on the sides that prevent other vehicles from passing.

    It would be interesting to make waze as well as avoid freeway roads we can add the inclination and avoid it.

  17. 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 roots
