Tow Mode
I often tow a trailer for work, and use Waze to go everywhere - but often time saving routes will take me down side streets and laneways that are narrow and difficult to navigate with a trailer. Same would apply for touring with a caravan.
It would be awesome to have a mode that minimizes tight turns, side streets or intersections without traffic lights.

I would also like to be able to avoid places where propane is prohibited, like tunnels and some parkways. I tow a travel trailer and Waze will often try to send me through a tunnel (I live in an area where the tunnel is the most direct route) where propane tanks are prohibitted. While on vacation this summer, Waze wanted me to take certain parkways where trailers are prohibited. Luckily we knew the area well enough to reroute ourselves.
