Please provide an option to turn off the "car stopped on shoulder" warning.
This is the most common warning yet doing nothing more than distracting. People stop on shoulders for few minutes all the time so why do I need to care unless I am planning to drive on the shoulder?? Turning off road hazards does not help.
Great news! The option to filter the kinds of alert you would like to get is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Waze has repeatedly ignored and refused to provide an option to ignore the traffic on shoulder ahead. Why? Quite simply they are forcing users to report that a vehicle is "not there" for most up-to-date data. Allowing users to "ignore" reports means MOST users will choose this feature (because most people really don't care). With users ignoring these prompts they no longer update the system and vehicle warnings will remain until expired. This is the #1 requested option for drivers, yet they still refuse to implement the changes.

I find these particular Hazard Alerts incredibly annoying. Unless the car on the side of the road is somehow obstructing traffic, I don't care about it. I use Bluetooth in the car and these alerts continually interrupt my music or news. Enough!

Will this ever going to be implemented?? Such a simple fix to allow turning off silly road hazards such as car stopped on shoulder or rain, yet it was not implemented in any of recent updates. Meanwhile I will continue do my part by keep clicking on "Not There" and not recommending waze to anyone until this is implemented.Sigh!

Absolutely right. Will you allow us to deactivate warnings for "cars stopped on shoulders"? I think people over-report them for easy points -- the frequency of the reports is exceedingly distracting and those events themselves aren't very important.

I woudnt want it to ignore any notification, perhaps only road hazards. Traffic notifications and police cars notifications are very helpful.

IGNORE any notification
