  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.

  3. Dead animal option in hazards

    There have been several times where dead animals have been described as "objects". For example, today I saw someone's dog who had died on the road was described as an "object". As someone who is very upsetted by dead animals, I would like there to be an option for "dead animal" so I know not to look. I know there used to be an option for it, but now it seems to be gone.

  4. 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 drivers

  5. State line

    When crossing into a different state it would be nice to receive an audible alert and/or a pop up notification that you have crossed into a new state like Google maps does. When on a long road trip sometimes we don’t know what state we have crossed into and it would be helpful to get notified.

  6. In-app option to turn off familiarity capping

    Give the users the option to always display Speed Cameras and Hazards that familiarity capping would otherwise remove from the display.

  7. Put in ability for users to opt out of political notifications

    Give the ability to opt out of emails and other notifications that are not related to using the waze app for driving. I don't want to receive political types of notifications such as the "celebrate pride with waze" email.

  8. Please, Please Stop The Waze Carpool Popup! It’s so dangerous! The Carpool Popups has almost gotten me into several accidents.

    Please, before someone gets killed! Please put the Waze Carpool popup in settings for people that are not going to Carpool. Your Stupid Carpool popup has popped up right when a turn is coming up or a route change. The Waze Carpool popup comes up, COVERING MUCH NEEDED INFORMATION JUST BEFORE A TURN! I have to quickly react and swipe the IOS phone to quickly Get Rid Of The Carpool popup so I know which way to turn. While I’m doing that, MY EYES AREN’T ON THE ROAD. Seriously, I’ve almost had two accidents because of Your Stupid Waze Carpool…

  9. Temporary Traffic Lights with 2Way,3Way & 4-Way sub categories

    Add a category of “Temporary Traffic Lights” with sub categories of 2-Way, 3-Way and 4-way.
    It would be hugely helpful to know, especially 4Way as I would go to great lengths to avoid those!

  10. The app did not warn me of the Sheffield clean air zone but did warn me about the Bradford one. Could be an oversight

    More comprehensive clean air zone warnings.
    If one does enter a clean air zone then the app could send a link to pay it. That would be really helpful 👍🏻

  11. Make fully customizable alerts

    You guys should make the alerts customizable. For example, I want to get the app to make a sound when I'm approaching a speed camera or something while above the speed limit. Now, if I set the sound as "Alerts" it only makes a sound when there's a speed bump which is useless because there are 6 street signs before every bump! Make a big list of all possible alerts and allow the user to choose what they want to define as alert deserving stuff

  12. Option to change speech/sound/mute/do not show notifications

    The current situation is that I can choose for each alert Show on map on / off, Warn while driving on / off. What should be is that it should be possible to choose from a menu: Do not warn / Warn on display only / Warn with a 'ding' sound / Warn with a voice 'Caution...'

  13. Pickup pasanger will display levels

    When Waze alerts me to pickup new passenger on the way (Waze carpool) it will be awesome to see how much drives the wazer done before meeting me. What is his level? So I would have some sort of confidence when picking up a total stranger.
