Unpaved roads
Ability to not only identify unpaved roads but also the option to avoid them all together. Ran into this issue when traveling through Antigua with less than ideal vehicle.

Evitar vias não pavimentadas às vezes é algo necessário devido às péssimas condições de algumas estradas de terra por aí. E essa opção teria grande valia mesmo se aumentasse muito o trajeto, digo até mesmo 4 vezes, já que mais vale andar 200 Km numa via pavimentada do que 50Km em uma estrada de terra terrível que é preciso andar a 15Km/h

If a Waze user turns off unpaved roads and goes somewhere requiring their use, they should receive a pop-up warning before starting the route instead of taking them as close as possible. Something like: “All routes to [ADDRESS] require driving on unpaved roads. Would you like to continue?” The user should be able to temporarily opt out of avoiding unpaved roads.
Oftentimes, a user who turns off unpaved roads is routed far from the actual destination.
I edit in a U.S. state with over 50% unpaved roads. This addition would improve the user experience significantly, especially since the state relies heavily on tourism.
