Show bridge height
Not once, I've heard of trucks getting into accidents by hitting a bridge that is too low to the vehicles height.
Why not display the bridges on the route and their height to prevent those type of accidents?

Waze does not provide truck-specific directioins and the developers have stated over the years they do not plan on adding it.

I get that waze isn't intended for commercial use - but myself and many others I know who use it are drivers that spend a lot of time in new developments and got sick of waiting (sometimes years) for other navigation apps to finally add roads in. Low bridge heights wouldn't exclusively be handy for truck drivers - what about people towing caravans, moving house in a hire truck, etc. It could be a simple addition to the map editor that would pop up a warning on the screen just like a pothole, or stopped vehicle, no need to confirm/deny or gain points from it... Also, the ability to add your vehicle height in the settings could make it only warn you if you are within a certain range of a potential mishap.

some routes are not made for trucks because of height limit. It can give suggestion early for trucks driver to plan their routes early in order to avoid late delivery.

I get dragged every time i comment on this idea in the forums because "Waze is not intended for commercial use" but i think this is a perfect use case for the new "permanent hazard" feature that is currently rolling out. a lot of Wazers use high profile vehicles for personal use.

as some route have height limits which some vehicles cannot pass through caused traffic jam & trouble… so choices shall be given, when driving different vehicle type

possibility of marking a road impossible to take with my vehicle or being able to mark the height of my vehicle so that it gives me routes that I can take (I drive with a van 2.50m high)

Mettre les ponts et leurs hauteurs; comme quand vous signalez les voies de chemin de fer. Cela servira a tous: poids lourds, camping car, van , fourgons etc.....
