Street blacklist
Unfortunately in some countries we face the reality of violence and sometimes the fastest route is not safe. So, my proposal is that we could have a "Street blacklist" in order to be able to add streets that we don't want to be in the route, preventing us to check all the route and try to find a new route every time or in a situation when we want a new route fast and during the route we notice that the navigation is going in the way that we don't want.

Beyond the safety reasons, there is another reason: there is a street' for example, that has an exclusive lane for buses, the only regular vehicles lane is narrow and its hard to go there by motorbike, because you get stuck between the cars withkut the possibility of overpassing, once you can get a fine for riding over the bus lane. I wish I could blacklist this street in my routes (only in my maps, not for every user). A simple feature that I find very important to all users.

I have a very rough road that Waze wants me to take about 1/2 the time. I would love to be able to tell it not to ever route that way.

I need this. My commute requires I take a toll road (cheap with no free alternative) if I want to get there easily. But there are nearby express roads that have free alternatives. Waze will route me on the express lanes--which can charge $15 or more for a couple miles of traffic-free drive--rather than through some congestion or around it on side streets.

Great idea! I would also propose a whitelist where you can add roads that have restrictions, in case you are permitted to drive there.

Wonderful idea. It could be on a route/user basis. Similar as road works are reported, being able to select streets I don't want to drive through for safety reasons, just one time or permanently.
