High Accident Area Allert
When about to enter an intersection where there have been many fatalities/accidents Waze could alert you to use extra caution. Today, my son and I saw an accident that is an area I went through and I remember thinking..."Oh my goodness, what in the world!?!" It was a strange intersection. I think drivers can be warned either by a voice warning to use extra caution or by a color that shows that area to be susceptible to accidents. His truck was upside down and the top crushed in. We hope he's okay. The idea to me is not to avoid the area, but to be more aware in those areas. Especially when you have never driven there before. Thanks.

I work for a toll road and when it rains I can tell you three locations in our 60 mile portion we patrol where an accident is most likely. I think Waze could collect the data of the Gps locations where people mark accidents add a question to include road conditions . If this feature was created and enable it could save lives. Caution : High accident area ahead!
