Create a Report category for "Faulty Traffic Lights"
Traffic lights are a major cause of traffic delays when out. Currently there is no way to report this specific problem.
Great news! The option to report the Traffic Lights that are out is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

please will waze add this... I'm all out of votes, but count this! Our traffic lights are out every day, and even worse when it's raining.

This should also influence Waze's routing decisions - when a traffic light is out, Waze should reroute users away from it.

It's specially frequent in Brazil during summer rains.

This is a real problem in South Africa especially when it rains as it effects all roads leading into that intersection. This would be a major time saver.

This is a huge issue where I live ... as soon as there is a little trickle of rain - all the traffic lights (we call them robots) go on the blink - causing havoc on our roads.
I try to report them as road hazard "object on road" and describe it as lights not working - but that is time consuming. -

Not a common occurrence around where I live but could be helpful when it does happen. It seems sensible to add this type of hazard.

Users should be able to report "traffic lights out" at an intersection in the Reports window as this would be very helpful to others.

Please this really is imperative. We don't all live in countries where this gets fixed immediately. Traffic lights can be down in our country for months!

Everybody is creating a "new" suggestion, and this issue isn't getting the attention it deserves!

We also need a way to report power outages on a road or in an area, as this will affect traffic and traffic lights.

Waisting votes there is another one called faulty stop light reporting that has slightly more votes same basic idea.

You need to be able to add traffic light out of order to route

Please add a feature to report a traffic light outage. A traffic light that's out is a major problem in a commute.

Great suggestion, I was going to suggest the same. Also it would be helpful to warn the traffic company so they can send people to fix it, and before that cops to control the traffic while there is no fix.
