Ability to select the types of hazards to enable/disable
Sometimes, certain hazards are not very helpful and are more of a distraction than anything. For example, vehicles stopped on the shoulder, weather, and missing sign are not very important and I dismiss them every time I see it. At times I feel like disabling hazards altogether.
Great news! The ability to disable individual alert notifications is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

I want a master Mute that completely and totally shuts off all audio from Waze. While I'm driving and listening to podcasts, I do not want Waze to make any sounds of any kind at any time. A simple Mute would suffice.

Whenever I am at a red light or stopped in traffic, Waze keeps popping up messages from all over the place. They are not helpful to me, they are distracting. Especially when it is reporting things 10+ miles away. (I'm in the city, so 10 miles is a long ways)
I looked though the menus and have tried disabling these screens but they are still appearing.
I posted this on the forms, and there are several others sharing my frustration, so I hope this change can please be added to the next update.
