Please we lost one of our operators on January 1 at 6:03am to someone who didn’t slow down and move over. This could save lives.

adding this feature could save somebody's life!!!! it is so much more important than whose voice is going to tell us how to get somewhere. this shouldn't even be up for debate it should be something that WAZE adds and be the leader in the industry to make people aware that the laws exist to move over and slow down so that the people working on the side of the road , firemen, tow truck drivers, police officers or any vehicle stopped on the side of the road can get home safe to their family

When announcing a vehicle stopped on the side of the road, add a reminder to move over to allow the vehicle plenty of room. As an emergency services provider, there are plenty of times when vehicles do not move over a lane to allow us to work safely. 43 states have a move over law, which includes fire, police, EMS, tow trucks and service vehicles. Drivers should move over for all vehicles on the shoulder of the road. More and more people are being killed while stopped on the shoulder. Whether it's putting gas in or fixing a flat, nobody should be put in harms way by a vehicle whizzing by at 70 mph.

There should be an option to report emergency vehicles stopped on the roads (not just police) sometimes there isn't an accident but medic reporting to a house on a main, busy road.

Alert drivers of stopped emergency vehicles and police in one lane or on the shoulder of the road so drivers can move over one lane.

When Waze reports a police car ahead in the breakdown lane, could they also remind drivers about the "Move Over" law to move over one lane or slow down 20 mph below the stated speed limit on the highway. This law applies to all emergency vehicles and tow trucks with flashing lights. This would help alleviate costly traffic tickets and increase safety on the highways.
