A way to delete my own report.
My idea is... A way to delete my own "report". I placed a report by mistake and wanted to take it off but couldn't!

An undo button could be beneficial for new users experimenting.
However, there are good reasons why random users can't put reports on locations where they are not currently located (avoid abuse.) Trusted map editors can request permission to edit the reports map, though. -

I agree why can't we delete I just placed accident at my house because I saw 3 accidents on way home that occurred on the highway and I thought I could put them when I got home because a cop was behind me and I didn't want to touch my phone you know hands free Georgia

A simple undo button should do the trick that disappears after 10 secs would be great :)

Totally agree. I wanted to report police further up the road because I was driving and wanted to report when I got out of the car. Instead it ended up where I got out. Couldn't figure out how to report further away.

I reported a hidden cop who then started to leave by the time l hit "send." There's got to be a way to cancel a report. As previously suggested by others below, it would also be nice to be able to report something from a location you no longer are in. Example: there was traffic due to an accident and l didnt want to add my own accident or make the traffic worse by sitting there trying to report it so others can avoid the area. l would have liked to report it after l left the scene, from a safer location. l guess this opens up an issue of people reporting something from too long ago, so maybe there should be a time limit

Isn’t there a way to place a report after you are no longer at that location? I’m not going to stop in front of that pig and take the time to place a marker on his head. There a way to place it there when I’ve got a little distance ?
