In Ontario/Canada as per Highway & Traffic Act, it is illegal to use smartphone/device without hands free operation, and police have stated that submitting status info on apps such as Waze is illegal as per Act and grounds for ticket for not driving “hands free”. Fine for doing so (and using Waze) and distracted driving is currently over $600-800 and 3’demerit points.

Of course I observe police cruisers driving with hands on computer console violating traffic act.

It would be great to have a screensaver (blank screen or other) that could be quickly toggled on Waze display (phone and/or CarPlay) that displays black screen or other “normal” screensaver/image. Could be an invisible button on area on screen or HOLD button for report, as example. Pressing area again at later time would revert to normal operation
