Add "Help me" button
I use Waze all the time while i drive the roads around Israel and i see people stuck on the road a lot. but i cannot always stop and assist since i am driving too fast or on the far lane when i cannot reach them. this "help me" button will pop up (like any other report) and ask for help: maybe a person needs a jump, or a ride to somewhere, or help changing a tire. the respondent will have an "on my way" button to come and help that person.

Also -
1. It could be a nice idea to reward helpers generously for helping strangers.
2. It could be good to be able to share the distress call on FB / Twitter with the location of the person - maybe one of their contacts will be able to help too.
3. Also can be a good start for an inbuilt hitch-hiking system (which IMO is LONG overdue). -
