It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier.
It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier - maybe even by alert type so that constriuction alerts could be set at 20 miles - and police alerts at 1.

Signalement
Bonjour,
Durant l’été j’ai souvent rencontré des personnes a pieds sur le bas côté des autoroutes ou routes rapides. Très dangereux, mais impossible à signaler. Dommage. Je pense que cela devrait être ajouté.140 votes -
For reports such as police ahead, why not allow the not there or still there response go a bit past the report point.
Quite often, for police reports etc we cannot say whether the incident is still there until we reach the report point and by then the incident confirmation has disappeared. How about allowing the answer past the report point - perhaps for a further half minute or so.

weather
I would like for you to include weather alerts from the National Weather Service as an automatic alert when we are driving toward an area with a weather warning and when an alert is issued for the area we are in. For example, if I am a few miles away from a tornado warning I would like to know about it before I get to that area so I could find a safe place until the warning is passed. We shouldn't need to depend on user-reported weather alerts; we also need the warnings from the National Weather Service.
In addition,…

Don’t let stationary users perform status updates for police cars.
Make it so that you need to be moving in order to click that a cop car is no longer there.
Don’t let stationary users perform status updates regarding the fact that a police car is in a spot or not. Once you do this, cops will stop watching Waze to undo what drivers are reporting so that they do t get noticed.
Please.
We will trust the app 1000% more!!! Word will spread.

Give an option to turn off the annoying road candy.
Would be great if we could turn this useless feature off. Very annoying to have my music/podcast interrupted by a **** alert.

Is there a feature that can be built into the Waze app that will alert you to an upcoming speed change
Could Waze build an alert into its app to alert you to an upcoming speed change, to help you decrease your speed. it would help to keep you from exceeding the speed limit.

Speed camera
When driving over a section where the average speed is measured, a green bar is displayed to indicate how far the speed control will be performed. However, it does not indicate the average speed driven in this section. It should be shown what is the average speed on that stretch

Your warnings for police reports are to late. You can already see the cops just before your warning come out. It needs to be at least 1 mile
Police notification needs to be 1 mile not 1/3 to 1/2 of a mile!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Car on right or left side of the road
Letting drivers know what side of the road the car is on.
The first report os just "car is on the the side of the road," once reported the next wazer can confirm which side right or left.
This 2 step reporting is less distracting to drivers13 votes -
Send lane INTERDICTION alert through the vehicle's multimedia.
Hello, I believe that the following idea is an improvement and it is not a possible bug solution, because the functionality would have been tested before the release of the version.
When trying to send a lane interdiction alert through the vehicle's multimedia, the option does not appear, just using the cell phone without mirroring, I am using a cell phone with an IOS operating system, but the same behavior is seen with cell phones with an Android operating system.
Particularly, I don't walk with my cell phone in hand while driving, nor would I like to stop the vehicle…

keep directions on the screen
Using Waze is for directions of not knowing where to go so I think you need to go back to the small alerts on the screen instead of taking up the directions spot and having them disappear. It’s very frustrating trying to find your way through a city you’ve never driven in before when the directions keep disappearing to alert you that there’s a car on the side of the road.

Pick and choose specific alerts
I'd like to be able to pick and choose alerts. I find that hearing "approaching a railroad crossing" every day on the way to work is just annoying. I'm thinking to myself "no ****, Sherlock". Really, the only thing I'm concerned about is where the smokeys are hiding.

Seeing other that need assistance
I thought it would be helpful to have an Assitance request in Waze, but I wondered if there could be a feature instead of me requesting assistance for me if it could be for someone else. Also, there was a stretch of highway where I did see someone on the other side pulled over, trying to alert for assistance. I was wondering if that could be a future feature. By the time I got close to the off-ramp to drive the other way, it already was 30 minutes, and I decided to keep going because I was hopeful that maybe…

Waze has the framework to potentially help avoid chain reaction vehicle accidents
I have been studying chain reaction vehicle accidents for years and I belive that Waze may have most of the architecture already in place to alert drivers not yet at the accident scene to slow or stop, which would minimize or eliminate the wreckage, injuries and deaths that occur when low-visability causes vehicles to continue running into a crash site, creating a chain reaction accident. My request is to communicate with one of your engineers to discuss the concept.
