Allow the ability to specify the location of a report.
When reporting an issue, crash, traffic jam, fire, Police activity, the system only gives you the option to report on the road you are on. So for example, if you are at an interchange where you can see the activity on a highway or interstate, but you are not on that road, you can't actually report it properly. Maybe it can be set up that you make a report, and like in google maps, you have a pin dropped on the map that you can move to the correct location, if where you are is not the location of the activity. Example: look at Cromwell Park Drive, Glen Burnie, MD on google maps. You will see that there is an interchange where I-97 passes by. You can see the activity on the highway, even if you are not on it.

Eek. I'm new to Waze, from the UK, and have noticed pot holes and roadworks in many places near me. I've often not been at liberty to flag hazards etc on the go, no places to pull over, so surely there must be a way I can do it later, when I'm back home and online?

Choose a place on map. Then choose to report something.
Another user coming past there and sees no issues, should be able to downvote to get removed, or upvote to keep it there. Maybe this is somewhat in place, just hard to figure how to do it

I want to be able to move the report icon with my finger of any on the list once I have passed the situation and move it and place it on once I have passed it cause time of getting phone and sending report you have passed already not actually place

En alguna ocasión detecto policía oculta pero no tengo el waze encendido o tarda en coger cobertura de GPS. Si poco más adelante puedo parar y enviar esa ubicación desde un lugar cercano, seria de gran ayuda para otros wazers.

Sometimes we cannot suggest issues while driving but can when stationary. This would be a great feature if you can add reports while stationary

Wow, I read the dates of when this issue was first reported and it STILL hasn't been fixed! Common Waze, get it together.

One more request for this.
Waze eats battery like no one's business, so I don't have it on most of teh time.
By the time it boots up, I'm a mile away.I really want to help Wazers, but I need this feature in order to move the report to the correct location.

Still no answer from the product team? This feature is essential.

Estaría bueno que a futuro se pueda indicar reportes de cierres o modificaciones desde la app independientemente de si uno abandona la zona. En mi caso, en el interior nos puede pasar que hasta que “lleguemos a casa a una PC a enviar este reporte” pueden pasar horas o días, mientras tanto los demás conductores siguen sin poder contar con ese reporte. Se pierde la instantaneidad de la info que es lo más valioso de Waze. Muchas gracias.

Terrible that I could not notify once I have passed! If I am being checked by police, I will not have my phone in my hand ... I could easily place it on the map once I have passed but the app does not allow for it! Really terrible!

make it easy to report and for a location that you just passed. it's not always possible to mark at the exact location while driving

This is absolutely ridiculous that they haven't fixed this issue yet. Its been out for a while and people have been saying it since Waze first came out, are the DEVS even working on Waze or have they quite? Why don't you guys change the app to what the people want? This is nonsensical.

I agree with most posters here, this is a vital addition for many reasons. Please add it to an already fantastic app!
