'Add traffic signal/stop sign icons for next turn' has been merged into this idea

Tracking stop signs and stop lights

In addition to "Difficult intersection" it would be very handy for two features:
1) Waze's map to record if there are stop signs (2, 4 way), and lights at an intersection. This would (hopefully) include separate turn signals; some intersections are VERY difficult to turn left at even with a light, for example.

2) A setting for navigation (in the app) for "Avoid unguarded turns/intersections". This would then allow a driver to NOT have to turn left across 6 lanes of traffic, for example, as the app would know there was no light at that crossing (or even going directly across).

3) In addition, a mode for "During rush hour" would be handy for both this and the 'avoid difficult intersections'. Such turns are fine at 1:00am, impossible at 5:00pm.

Now, this sounds like it may present a lot more options, thus confusing some drivers, but if you've ever had the joy of dozens of street turns during rush hour in LA or other severely congested area, you could see it would become life-preserving.

    This iconic trail climbs steep switchbacks and narrow ridgelines with chains for support. The panoramic view from the summit is breathtaking. Not recommended for those afraid of heights. https://utahcanyonhikes.com/

    I have a small suggestion, could you add the traffic lights on the map? That would be great, I would really appreciate it if you could do it.

    I have a little suggestion you could add the traffic lights on the map that would be great agrdesco a lot if they could do it

    How can this still not be implemented. Especially with Google and Apple already doing it. Like others have said, when driving an unfamiliar area knowing "I need to move over and get ready to turn after 3 lights" is crucial"

    Add stop light and stop signs on the map. These help especially when you are not familiar with the area and Google and Apple have a leg up in that department.

    Would be glad to see a larger scale of the speed limit post, street signs (stop, traffic lights and school crossings) and exit lanes (system zoom-in) for a clearer view of exact exit off highway and local turns.

    Excellent option when there are cities where the roads are not signposted and especially when you do not know the city, accidents can be avoided.

    The Waze app doesn’t show STOP signs on all roads. This should be fixed to make driving more safe.

  • Paul Lizotte commented  ·   ·  Report

    Although Waze does not consider stop signs and stop lights to be relevant to travel time, it will increase safety. I assume Waze takes safety into consideration and that is why we report things like a car stopped on the side of the road, roadkill, objects, etc. Although I am always looking at the road, there have been a couple times when I looked down at the Waze map and almost drove through a stop sign since they are not always as obvious as lights. I always promote Waze to people, so can you please add stop signs to the maps?

    Show upcoming stoplights on route display. It helps to find a location and know when to turn in unfamiliar areas. I switch to Apple Maps often just for this feature.

    Hello, my name is Douglas, I have been a Waze user for 4 years. I would like you to introduce traffic lights on the map, it would be FANTAST

  • Aven commented  ·   ·  Report

    Show traffic lights on the map along your route for easier navigation.

    6 years later waze's team have not satisfied their users, with such an important function

  • Larryhayes7 commented  ·   ·  Report

    We get so many UR's from drivers reporting stop lights and signs this would reduce those types of UR's plus Google Maps has that feature. Why not import that information into Waze?

  • John Pavone commented  ·   ·  Report

    Traffic lights and Stop signs is a feature I like very much on Maps. I do like all the other Waze apps features better. Adding Traffic Lights and Stop Signs would be a game changer and there would be no reason to use any other app.
