Tracking stop signs and stop lights

In addition to "Difficult intersection" it would be very handy for two features:
1) Waze's map to record if there are stop signs (2, 4 way), and lights at an intersection. This would (hopefully) include separate turn signals; some intersections are VERY difficult to turn left at even with a light, for example.

2) A setting for navigation (in the app) for "Avoid unguarded turns/intersections". This would then allow a driver to NOT have to turn left across 6 lanes of traffic, for example, as the app would know there was no light at that crossing (or even going directly across).

3) In addition, a mode for "During rush hour" would be handy for both this and the 'avoid difficult intersections'. Such turns are fine at 1:00am, impossible at 5:00pm.

Now, this sounds like it may present a lot more options, thus confusing some drivers, but if you've ever had the joy of dozens of street turns during rush hour in LA or other severely congested area, you could see it would become life-preserving.

    Show a traffic light is in the intersection or on the road. Or even a stop sign etc just to indicate that there is one there to be ready.

    Show stop signs and traffic lights on the map much like google maps does

  • Richard Kannegiesser commented  ·   ·  Report

    It would be nice if it was possible for wazers to enter the locations of stop signs, yield signs or traffic lights on any given intersection - or even mark the intersection as completely uncontrolled.

    This would help the waze navigation system better discern priority roads when calculating a route.

    Should have an icon on maps showing if a traffic light or stop sign is at an intersection.

  • Joseph commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please add traffic light’s icons by the intersection’s on the navigation map, it will help the driver’s to understand to roads more properly and drive more Cautiously in the road’s the don’t know.

    Add stop signs to local roads while navigating like google maps has

    Show all stop signs and signal lights along route and give us voice directions like “Turn left at the next stop sign onto 5th ave”

    חשבתי גם על כזה דבר רק הוסיף שהחיבור לרמזורים יתבצע רק כשהרמזורים לא עובדים וכך ניתן להציל חיים במיוחד בצמתים גדולים וגם כך ניתן לחסוך את עבודת השוטרים מתפקיד המנווטים של התנועה בשעת תקלה

    This is a marvelous suggestion I was about to create, I know our eyes work, but knowing 1/2 a mile away that a stop sign is upcoming would be extremely helpful for safe driving. I am someone who uses the drive safe apps to monitor my acceleration and breaking habits, hard breaks are denoted by de accelerating by 7mph or more per second. My only instances of this is unexpected stop signs from unfamiliar routes or misremembering on my part.

    Hard Breaking is dangerous for myself, other drivers, and for those of us who choose to enroll is discount programs with insurance companies. This foreknowledge would build a better community, a safe route, and more $$$ in many of our wallets.

    Display traffic lights and stop signs on map.

    Add a feature that will allow you to see a countdown of the time left for the red light depending on your route. Traffic light systems usually have a fixed timeline, and can be identified by tracking and stopping Wise users at intersections.

    הוספת פיצ'ר שיאפשר לראות ספירה לאחור של הזמן שנשאר לרמזור האדום בהתאם למסלול הנסיעה שלך. למערכות רמזורים יש בדרך כלל תבנית זמנים קבועה, וניתן לזהות אותה על ידי מעקב אחרי תנועה ועצירה של משתמשי ווייז בצמתים.

    I'd like to see traffic lights 🚦 on the way where it's present

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    To be more aware of hidden stop signs.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    When u r driving it show every signal pic

  • Omer Tsur commented  ·   ·  Report

    Show the driver when the light changes to green and when he turns red again, the waze should know which traffic light to show by the drive plan and course.
    In Beijing, it's all over the city traffic lights.
