Please, give us an option for caravan, camping-car and big véhicule, to have large and cool road !!!!
I have a big old caravan, ad sometimes, road are not ridding easy with it.
It's possible to have an option like motorway or not, for ridding cool and secure with big and large truck, caravan or camping-car?

Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

I described a more worked out example on waze forum also for truck routing (search for "Sven routing"). But essentially what I want is very simple and would give Waze a huge edge over other current GPS system.
In Europe (and probably most other non-US places) a problem with GPS systems is that they sometimes take you on very awkward roads, you can drive on them but local people would never use them. I would like an option to avoid that, as you can currently avoid highways. E.g. call the switch "nice roads/all roads" in Waze.
As example: in my neighborhood there are 2 parallel big roads, and close to me is a very small "road" between the 2 of them. It used to be a dirt road but they paved half of it (it's still only big enough for 1 car), halfway through it becomes a dirt road again with bushes growing so far on the "road" that they will scratch your car if you drive through it. A lot of GPS systems will happily guide you through the small road, while 100m further down the road you have a regular road between the 2 big roads. Even truckers sometimes take the small road because of their GPS: the local farmer has to "free" a trucker at least each month.
How it would work:
- In the waze editor allow for a flag for "Try to avoid for regular routing" on a road segment. I don't know the details of the routing algorithm but when that flag is set that segment should get a very negative value for routing through it. Only when no other route exists it would take that. It would have to be set by a high level editor (for possible NIMBY abuse). Initial value would be "off" so routing would be as is now (also for new roads).
- In Waze itself it would just be a switch ... I would set it on as default... always drive on "nice roads".How routing would work... Route from the current location to the nearest nice road (nothing if the current location is already a nice road). Calculate backwards from the destination to the nearest nice road (nothing if the destination is already a nice road). Calculate a rout between the (possibly shifted) source and destination points only using nice roads (if available).
This would make Waze maybe not take the "extreme" fastest roads, but it would give me peace of mind that Waze selects good roads.

Add an option to select vehichle hight, width and weight and naviagte around unsuitable roads. Would really help as i drive all diffrent sized vehicles at work and use waze but it often trys to take me down roads i am un able to use due to the weight of the vehicle or hight of low bridges ext

למשל במשאיות, המנוע של חלק מהמשאיות מוגבל ל 90 קמ"ש, ובמשאיות צבאיות המהירות שמותר להן לנסוע היא 80 קמ"ש. חשבתי על אפשרות להזנת הגבלת מהירות בווייז, ולפיה הווייז יחשב את זמן ההגעה ולא על פי המהירות המותרת של הכבישים (אלא אם המהירות המותרת של הכביש היא מתחת למהירות המוגבלת שהוזנה).
לדוגמא, בכביש 6 אני נוסע 80 קמ"ש בגלל ההגבלה... בתחילת הכביש בצפון רשום לי שאגיע לבאר שבע בעוד כשעה ועשרים, ובפועל אני מגיע כעבור שעה וחמישים כי נסעתי הרבה פחות מהמהירות המותרת של כביש 6. -

Would LOVE if the WAZE app allowed for the restrictions. Makes calculating routes so much quicker and easier.

Waze NEEDS something like the Garmin RV system with RV-friendly routing, elevation info, input for RV size, campgrounds, RV-friendly service stations/fueling, etc. For ideas just see Garmin RV770 LMT-S RV GPS.

האם חשבתם על הרעיון של מיפוי גשרים?
כך, נהג משאית, יוכל להכניס את הגובה של המשאית שלו לפני תכנון המסלול והמפה תאתר לו מסלול המתאים לגובה המשאית שלו – מבלי להתנגש בגשרים בדרך... -

En Argentina hay alrededor de 12 millones de vehículos circulando aproximadamente, de los cuales el 10% son vehículos de Gran porte (camiones), al día de hoy no hay ningún sistema de navegación que un chofer de camión ya sea larga o corta distancia pueda instalar y que los guíe con sus respectivas normas de tránsito.
Sería una gran solución evitaría accidentes daño a la vía pública, desgaste mental para el chófer , etc. el tema es muy largo para discutir pero bueno yo les brindó Mi idea y lo demás es trabajo de ustedes. Esto va a funcionar si lo desarrollan bien y no sólo en Argentina en el mundo entero. pueden contactarse conmigo si lo desean. Trabajo de chofer y tengo conocimiento del tránsito. -

I agree, a RV feature would be great

The most recent update I've heard related to truck-specific info is that Waze isn't going to do it.
There are too many legal issues involved, not to mention editing would be a nightmare. You would have to know the weight limit of every segment, the height of every bridge, width restrictions, hazmat, time-related restrictions for certain trucks, etc. Not only would you have to do that in the map, but you would have to enter your truck's current weight, height, etc. into the app.
There are other solutions that already exist, but they aren't free.

Does Waze have any plans for trucks in future?

Routes which support RVs would be great. I love waze, but it's a little worrisome to be redirected to a side road when we don't know if that side road has height or weight restrictions. .

מדוע לא ניתן להגדיר מסלול למשאיות כגון עד 15 טון מעל 15 טון סמיטריילר וציוד כבד כולל גובה גשרים רוחב העגלה ושעות מסוימות שאפשר להיכנס לכבישים שמראש מגבילים כניסה למשאיות רק לפי מישקל מסוים .דבר שיכול לימנוע תאונות דרכים ו פקקים ולהקל מאד על האוכלוסית הנהגים המיקצועייםשזקוקים לכך מאד .
