Add a "Military" pass to the options
Just like there are toll passes, CAV decals, and other options, there should be a "Military" pass and the ability to set "Military" restrictions on segments. This would reduce the amount of through routing on military installations.

Tap the speed circle to switch miles to km
I'm traveling between Canada and the US, and I believe tapping the speed circle to switch miles to km we'll improve the user experience

Automatically & immediately loading the route (instead of waiting 5 seconds)
Currently after entering a destination the "go now" counter will wait 5 seconds before automatically showing the route. I would like a setting to make this zero seconds. Essentially, automatically showing the route immediately after it has been calculated.
This is handy when driving for ride share. We don't get the rider's info until they enter the car. Knowing which way to go as soon as possible is important in many situations. Over the course of a day of driving ride share I will press "go now" around a hundred times - never needing to change anything on that initial…

Opening Waze on Apple Carplay cuts off radio - doesn't with other map apps
When I open Waze on Apple Carplay in my car my music/radio will stop playing (switches from Radio/Sirius to iPod on my Pioneer Nex). I have to manually go back and turn the music back on. This doesn't happen when I open Google Maps or Apple Maps.

Liam Neeson voice over
Simple as that. Imagine driving and your navigation makes you feel like you're diving in an action movie....but undercover so you gotta obey traffic laws. Anyway, Liam Neeson' s voice is a must!

"xx min ago" on alert popup
add age of the report to the popup when alerting the driver about police/speed trap, hazard, accident etc.

Add Hal from 2001 Space Odyssey voice
Add Hal's voice to Waze as an option.
The important part is it must call everyone "Dave". For example, if you take a wrong turn you hear "Where are you going Dave?"

Trip price calculation
The viamichelin.com route calculator gives you quite an accurate prediction of the trip price based on a few factors.
- Vehicle average consumption data (by vehicle type, mpg or l/100km).
- Distance.
- Average fuel price.
- Tolls (data publicly available, should be added to Waze).
I believe it would be very useful.

Let Waze warn me also against Hazards created by me
Currently, if you leave a Hazard on a map, you are not being warned against, if you approach to it after you report it. We are able to remember places where there are short term Hazards, but in case of long term hazards (like Potholes) it can be different.

Rettungsgasse / Rescue Lane - Reminder while traffic jams
In Germany and most European countries, you are supposed to form a rescue lane whilst being in a traffic jam on a highway/Autobahn.
This emergency corridor is always between the very left lane and the one next to her, so all cars need to move to the very left / very right on those lanes, making enough space to let emergency vehicles through.
After several incidents where people died after emergency services being stuck in the traffic jam, the German government wants to increase the sentence on ppl not making space for the rescue lane.My Suggestion:

Pedestrian, Hitchhiker, Bicyclist hazards
What I would really like to see on the hazard page is a couple of different choices for people.
I realize you can't have an icon for everything, but I do think a couple of choices for people would be an excellent addition. My recommendation would be three different people icons:
Hitchhiker
Pedestrian
Bicyclist12 votes -
Alert "Traffic ahead" not helping...
The voice alert "Traffic ahead" should be hear at least 5 seconds before the traffic. Otherwise it misses the point - I can see the traffic by myself...
If it comes sooner it could help preventing unnecessary emergency brakes12 votes -
Variable Speed Limit Sign Integration
Here in Northeast Ohio in our construction zones we have "Variable Speed Limit" signs. They are used to reduce the speed limit on a streth of road only when the work zone is active. Example stretches are the Interstate 271/480 stretch in Bedford and again on Interstate 480 in Parma. The 271/480 signs will be in use til 2021 according to the construction plan.
There are several solutions:
1) When entering reported construction zone there could be a pop up presented asking for current speed with known work zone MPH listed (see below)
2) After pressing the speedometer/speed limit a…12 votes -
Add "avoid side streets" option
In certain neighborhoods, side street routes are unsafe and not necessarily faster than sticking with the main drag: nothing like having to wait with 3 of my fellow Wazers while an onstreet drug deal concludes in front of us (side street alternative route directed by Waze in NE DC). Or maybe just add "Drug deal in progress" to the notifications?
