  1. Reroute traffic from Penelope Avenue in Middle Village Queens

    Avoid directing cars onto Penelope Avenue in Middle Village, Queens from Metropolitan Ave and Juniper Vally Blvd. The latter two streets are much better suited for high traffic volume, particularly during rush hour. When drivers are directed to Penelope by Waze, it creates backup as the street is not designed to accommodate the same amount of two way traffic, and has also increased traffic related incidents as a result.

  3. Show bus lanes in motorcycle mode

    In Australia, we can drive in bus lanes if you drive a motorcycle/scooter, therefore please preference a route with a bus lane, as it will be much quicker than one without.

  4. Avoid 70mph Roads

    When driving to a location on holiday I often try to AVOID motorways so the journey is more interesting and I pass through areas I haven't seen before. However, 70mph dual carriageways are NOT seen as a motorway, so sat navs (including Waze) with often navigate you onto one. Rather than choose AVOID motorways in settings, the option to "AVOID 70mph Roads" would be much better.

  6. waze travel

    I guess all road travelers would like the following idea.
    It won't be a bad idea if Waze adds an option or button called Waze Travel where the app suggests hotels Airbnb or camping areas for users when they have to travel for more than 8 hours so the distance can be cut in half.
    for example if I am traveling from a country to another and I have more than 8h hours on the road it takes me time to divide the distance locate the road I am tacking and then find hotels around the area.
    so that would…

  9. Remember driver's choice

    If the driver intentionally misses a turn for a different route based on his knowledge of the area (e.g. slightly longer, but better quality road) for multiple times, Waze should remember his choice and for the next time navigate through this preferred route by default.

  10. Plan a route that DOES NOT go through a specific location

    There was this HUGE traffic jam on a specific road due to an accident. Despite that, Waze acted like it is not aware about this, and all of the computed routes went through this specific road. It would be great for Waze to either add a manual option to plan a route avoiding specific place, or to understand from driver's behavior, that he has no intention or option to drive through this place. Instead, for all three available routes, it kept forcing me to turn around and go directly to the traffic jam.

  11. Posibility to add more than one waypoint on route

    Posibility to add more than one waypoint as many times waze doesn't give route which I prefer. As I use it on regular drivings to see if there is Jam or not.

  12. Signaler les événements exceptionnels sur une ville. Par exemple aujourd’hui Paris est fermé à la circulation entre 11 et 18 heures.

    Il serait intéressant que les événements spéciaux soient pris en compte par Waze. Exemple: Paris fermé aux voitures entre 11 et 18 heures, je n’étais pas au courant, Waze non plus, résultat 2 heures dans des bouchons à tenter d’entrer dans la ville pour rien. Waze m’aurait annoncé cette fermeture, Je ne prenais pas ma voiture et je participais à Paris respire 🥳

  14. Allow settings to switch on automatic avoidance of reported issues, eg Potholes.

    Please allow settings to switch on automatic avoidance of reported issues, eg Potholes. Would be awesome if waze can plan my route around specific reported issues. I've spent waaaaay to much on tyres and rims resulting from South Africa's failing infrastructure. Thank you.

  15. ‘Zoom in to issue’ from route overview

    The ‘route overview/timeline’ is good but it doesn't let you understand what the issues on your route are in any detail just has the logos eg 3 traffic, a broken down car and police

    Can I click on the issues to quickly zoom to an overview of that area so I know where those police are, what kinda traffic disruption it is.

    Sometimes these are normal eg the traffic at those temp lights. Other times it could be I big deal eg the beginnings of an unplanned closure and diversion.

    Currently if planing a long drive I would have go…

  16. Guardar una ruta que se use frecuentemente.

    Hola! Me gustaría sugerirles que uno pueda guardar una ruta realizada como ruta favorita y asi poder seleccionarla en el futuro. Es muy útil para los trayectos frecuentes entre dos puntos (ej. Casa al Trabajo). Así cada vez que uno realiza ese trayecto pueda escoger la ruta que siempre realizo y asi ver cuanto sería el tiempo del trayecto.

  17. Navigate toll roads even when pass not entered in settings.

    I live near the Georgia, USA, I-75 Northwest Corridor Express Lanes. When a user enters the Express Lanes without a corresponding pass in settings, Waze acts like the road doesn't exist and keeps offering turns as if they were on the main highway, going the opposite direction, on nearby surface streets, etc. After entry there are very few ways to exit the Express Lanes, and it's unhelpful to have suggestions to turn around or to exit from the main highway when you're in the Express Lanes. Perhaps Waze could recognize that the user is on the road, stop freaking out…

  19. Preferred Roads

    Preferred Roads would allow a user to specify a list of roads they are more familiar with and prefer to take where possible, whether manually, or automatically through repetitive driving habits.

    If a new route might save me 2 mins I don't care. I would still prefer to use my most familiar roads. If there is an accident and I should avoid to save 10 mins, then it could utilize less familiar roads.

    Along the same lines, another collection of roads could be considered roads to avoid. This is different to avoiding Toll roads, as some toll roads are preferable…

  20. Waze should suggest different routes including toll roads when you put in desination

    when i use waze and put in my desination I take the interstate (toll road) but Waze tells me to turn around and go through town or the city highway. It will not suggest the toll road route until I’m 50ft for the onramp. when I put in my desination Waze should give different routes suggestions and also give alerts on the ETAs and if one of the routes requires tolls, and etc.
