Lane Guidance
While using Waze on highways lately, I have begun to think that having the ability to see what lane becomes the off ramp would be great, especially in complex city interchanges.
Portuguese: Estava usando o Waze em rodovias e comecei a pensar que seria ótimo ter a capacidade de ver qual pista pegar, especialmente em trevos complexos dentro das cidades.
Spanish: Últimamente me he dado cuenta que al utilizar waze en capitales se hace muy necesario que waze indique cual carril de una calle, avenida o autopista, llega a ser una rampa, especialmente en complejos intercambios.
Great news! The Lane Guidance feature is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Is it possible to display as "overlay" to show in detail multi lane during the taking of exit.
In detail window shows multilane and navigation recomends which needs to be taken by highliting it. -

Dear team, it would be great to have an exit assistant that tells you how many lanes will exit on the autobahn.

Add lane assist, lane guidance to Waze.

This is crucial when navigating in unknown territory - this needs to be added!

Lanes:
When there are notifications for things like potholes, police, car stopped, accident etc, I feel like i’m slowing down traffic to guess what lane has a surprise for me.

I use both Google Maps and Waze as my primary mapping/navigation aids. I prefer Waze overall, however, I always revert to GM when I go into areas that I am unfamiliar with. With today's highways, and the way that lanes are designed, if you are not in the correct lane, you are in trouble. Just recently i was taking an exit and needed to take a left, the most left lane was a U turn, the middle left lane was the actual lane i wanted, however, neither Waze, nor Street signs indicated that. I ended up going the wrong direction on the HW, pulled over, started GM and was able to figure out what i did wrong because GM clearly showed which Lane I needed to be in.
This feature would be Truly appreciated it.

At this point, there really is no valid excuse for this feature not being present in Waze.

Waze:
See Fb friends on the map when you are driving (even if you drive to the same address with someone)
Lane assistant: better display of exits by means of the traffic signs and to show the lanes
The number of wazers in a radius of 20 km:
As with Coyote, so you can see if someone on your road has passed traffic bother and mobile speed cameras / police checks -

This could also be extremely helpful for navigating through traffic accidents with partial lane closures and road construction where lanes are blocked. This will also support their carpool function to know how/when/where carpool lane are available

This has been needed in Waze from the start.

This is the #1 major improvement area for Waze in my opinion. This has been the weakness for several years and needs to be improved soon. Both Apple Maps and Google Maps has the capability. Another one will be to have Speed Limit on the map.

Os usuários do aplicativo poderiam informar em qual pista estão circulando, para melhorar a precisão do GPS e garantir uma boa informação aos demais wases.

Yes, we NEED lane guidance.

Pas grand chose à rajouter, c'est un manque par rapport à la concurrence, même le GPS Coyote le propose !!!

TBH, of all navigation maps (including Apple Maps, Google Maps, TomTom, Garmin, etc.), they have lane guidance except Waze. A road has not always a one or two lane. But it can extend up to 5 lanes or rather than that. The signs are not always posted for every meters passed. This navigation app is created to have focus-driving attention to the drivers. Lane guidance too, they reminding drivers which lane is recommended to pass. Waze will be not bulky to put that feature, but it will gonna help thousands of drivers driving at highways, freeways and many-lane streets.

I use waze locally, however when I go out of my area, I switch to gmaps just to have this feature, so I do not need to make last minute lane changes

Come on, Waze. You're part of Google now, and Google Maps has lane guidance. There's no good reason for you not to have this yet.

+1 for lane guidance please! Been a wazer for a few years and its always been my main gripe. 10548 votes and its not on your roadmap? strange.

I think there really needs to be some more specific lane data, at least about hazards and accidents. I have passed a whole large and thick tire in the middle of the road, which was hidden because of other cars ahead. If I hadn't pulled on the adjacent lane just a few seconds earlier by chance, I would have gotten come very serious damage to the underside of my car. Several times, gigantic potholes have almost ripped my tire off.
Lane specificity is a must to prevent incidents like this.
Also, flood gauge or depth reports would help, by lane if possible. 1 inch of flooding is nothing and could provide a safe route to escape an even more devastated area, although a large visible timestamp is essential too for this because conditions change rapidly during a flood. Reporting 5 feet of flooding that looks like less could save many lives. Hurricane Harvey and flooding earlier in Houston made that very clear.
