Miscellaneous Suggestions - Reporting Items Not There and Hazards
I would suggest having the ability to select reports and mark them as not there. For instance, oncoming traffic reports of speed traps or traffic that have since cleared up but not timed out.
Also reporting a road hazard of disabled vehicle on the road. Currently there's vehicle on shoulder and you can report an accident on the road. We should be able to note a disabled vehicle blocking one lane.
Lastly there should be the ability to note in an accident if it's affecting both sides (when EMS responds from both directions and closes lanes), when the road is closed as a result of the major accident thus allowing Waze to re-route everyone taking that road, and an accident report with rubbernecking which would indicate the accident but also there's a traffic jam (one or both sides) as a result of onlookers.

Kind of along with your first point, I concur I would like to be able to select a report and confirm/deny if it is there. On occasion there will be multiple reports of either the same or different type, and you can only "vote" on whichever one notifies you. There might be an accident with multiple accident reports and/or police reports, but if they're no longer there, you cannot report more than one as "not there." While this might be a measure to prevent people from abusing the feature and reporting everything as not there, I would think you could allow selecting and confirming/cancelling reports within say half a mile of your location, the same way you're notified of reports half a mile ahead.
