  1. Implement Customizable Quick-Report Buttons for Common Reports

    To enhance the ease and safety of reporting road situations while driving, I suggest introducing customizable quick-report buttons on the side of the map. Many users, including myself, frequently report similar incidents (e.g., police presence, cars on the shoulder, construction). The current process requires navigating through multiple steps to log a report, which can be cumbersome and potentially distracting while driving. By allowing users to pre-select and place up to three of their most commonly reported incidents as single-tap buttons on the main screen, reporting can become a one-tap process, significantly reducing distraction and improving the reporting efficiency. This feature…

  2. Downvote button

    Too many false police sightings handling parking lot accidents, getting coffee, ect.

    In theory, Once threshold met, the report is automatically deleted.

  3. Pothole reports

    Would it be possible to obtain a report of potholes in a certain area? Looking to start a community funded business to fix them…. Maybe a specific App for me dedicated purely to potholes if possible??

  6. Vignette control car warning

    In HU mostly on highways there are multiple vignette / tax and customs car, checking traffic and are roadside, but always reported as police which is very misleading. Should be an option for some other type, because most of the police warnings are false alarm.

  7. Michigan Potholes - Reporting to Agencies

    In michigan, the state will re-imburse drivers if their vehicle is damaged by a pothote. The only way they will pay is if you can prove the pothole was there for 30 days or more. If I report a pothole on Waze, and waze notifies the state, county or city, responsible for that road of the pothole, then the 30 day days can be substantiated from that time of reporting.
    Or if Waze provided the contact information for the party responsible for that road, then the user could report it themselves.

  8. Better traffic updates

    There’s needs to be a better explanation when putting a traffic update on the map. Putting that there’s a traffic jam or standstill traffic doesn’t help. Needs to have a better explanation with the traffic update in order for it to be put on the map. Why is traffic being held up?!! Is construction or an accident.

    New York has installed permanent speed cameras on many major roads, NYS Thruway, I84, 90, ect,, as well as work zone cameras.
    How do we report them?
    I suggest two options under the police tab for permanent speed cameras and temporary work zone camera reports.

  10. General map editing fixes

    When it comes to submitting a claim that part of the map is incorrect, the Waze contributor that contacts me speaks to me in a one-way conversation. I have no ability to text back, so he says that "no the map is fine" but he doesn't know that the recently there was construction and a new speed camera was installed. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to message him back. It's like an email inbox where I can only receive but I cannot send. If I could send and I can attach images as proof that the map has changed,…

  11. Overview of speed controls

    Show an overview of all speed controls that you had on your way with for each control the speed limit and users speed at the moment of passing the control. Including the section controls as well, showing the speed limit and users average speed during the section control. So the user can see all the controls he had and were he drove above the speed limit (and so risks to receive a fine).

  12. Configuration Setting for Road Hazards Order

    Road Hazard Reporting is extremely important for the efficiency & simplicity of submissions! We do NOT want the "Submission of Report" to be the source of vehicle accidents! This can be assistance with one being able to customize their own order of "Road Hazards" listing within the Smartphone App and CarPlay view! In my case, having to scroll down in my CarPlay view to access "Pothole" increases my chances of possible "vehicle accident issues" on the road due to the extra 2-5 seconds of "less direct attention" to the crazy other drivers on the road! In other words, this configuration…

  13. Hazard link fix

    The car on roadway report link was removed. While being on the shoulder is probably the most seen report for cars stopped, a car stopped in the middle of the road is also a serious hazard. I think this link should be added back.

  14. off-screen RTC reporting in app

    i'd like to have the ability to add an RTC from the app when i'm not centered on my current location.

    for instance, i can often see a closure on a road that's not part of my route and i'd like to be able to mark it as closed but maybe once i've reached a safe stopping point. For instance if i'm on my way to work and pass a side street with a closure i'd like to mark it once i get there, but as soon as i've passed it the option is gone because the report pin disappears…

  17. Display for reporting

    Like the new reporting format. Why not out a button format for the second level instead of having to scroll to find the choice. On Apple Car Pmay, if you choose to report a hazard, you have to scroll to find pothole, there are 6 choices and with button layout they can all fit, without the need to scroll.

  19. Police

    Is there anyway you can report police and speed cameras with a lot more notice, from my experience 0.3 miles is no where near long enough to react in most cases!! Could it change to 1.2 miles. This gives us more time to react and plan ahead. Also you could make the report for the police on both sides of the road!!

  20. Reset the location of a Report in the dialog asking the user if the Report is "Still There"

    Reports are generally close to the correct location, but not always, so an option to reset the location in the dialog for "Still There" would be great!
