On long trips using motorcycle navigation mode, Waze should recommend rest stops every 1 hour or 120 km (whichever comes first). These stops could include nearby gas stations, rest areas, scenic points, or safe parking spots, helping riders stay alert, hydrated, and safe.

Why This Feature Matters

Safety First: Long rides on a motorcycle are physically demanding. Fatigue increases the risk of accidents. Timely rest breaks help reduce this danger.

Health & Comfort: Regular stops reduce back strain, dehydration, and numbness. It promotes better focus for the rest of the ride.

Route Planning: Knowing where to stop in advance, especially for fuel or refreshments, helps riders plan more confidently and avoid remote areas without services.

Motorcycle-Specific Behavior: Unlike cars, motorcycles don’t have air conditioning, storage, or in-seat comfort, making frequent stops more essential.

How It Could Work

Enable this as a toggle under Motorcycle Mode Settings.

When a trip is longer than 100 km or expected to last more than 1 hour:

    Waze prompts: “Would you like rest stop suggestions every 60 minutes or 120 km?”

The app displays:

    Nearby gas stations

    Scenic or shaded rest areas

    Places with bathrooms or refreshments

    Possibly a reminder notification: “You’ve been riding for 1 hour — here’s a good spot to rest.”

Optional Features

Customize intervals (e.g., every 45 min, 90 min, or 100 km).

Allow user-rated rest spots for motorcycle-friendly services.

Incorporate weather data (heat, rain) to suggest even more frequent breaks.

End Goal

Make long motorcycle rides safer, more enjoyable, and less fatiguing by incorporating practical rest planning right into the route guidance experience.
