quick Location marker button
Please add the option that with a click of one button or one touch of the screen that would mark the exact location of the incident or notification to be made. This would greatly improve the accuracy of the reports being made. From experience, reports are made a good distance away from the incident depending on how fast driving, how safe it is to make the report at the time, or how fast one comes up on the item to report.

I am on the same page as these guys. I would like a Rapid Incident Button; one that I can toggle on/off and place anywhere on the screen. on pressing it multiple times it lets me record a location while concentrating on driving. Later I can review the incidents and report them safely.
What if i see (take a silly number - but not impossible) ten issues in rapid succession eg an accident, a flood, a car on the hard should etc. It's just not safe and indeed not possible to report multiple incidents like this and do it safely.
It's not unusual to find multiple potholes100m apart. Currently, while reporting one, I could be wrecking the car by driving into another because the act of reporting takes the drivers attention. Again, Using the RIB, I can drive safely, record the location safely and report valuable issues back to the community.

When I am diving I focus on the road, I want is to be able to single click a button to records the current location in my history.
Steps to Recreate:
1) Single click, current stored in a history, position visible to all users as unclassified report.
2) 5-10 minutes later I pull over and update the details of the report eg. Construction, Place, Traffic, Petrol Price etc.
3) (Lower priority) The location can then be saved somewhere or transferred to my edit maps account for situations where I want to do map edits myself.
