Persistence of Pothole Reports
Potholes persist until repaired. Pothole reports should persist until consistent replies with “not there”. If the majority of people are confirming, then allow the pothole report to persist (edited from “until someone reports “not there”)

Since Brazil has a lot of potholes, I think there should be a shortcut for potholes on the screen for the drivers to be able to report

Inclusão de Quebra-molas como aviso perene.
Creio que as lombadas ou quebra-molas deveriam ter uma opção de alerta de obstáculo perene. Existem muitos deles sem sinalização formal e a opção perene, assim como radares, evitaria muitos acidentes.

Multi Directional Alerts
Multi-Directional Alerts
Weather and animals on the shoulder should be Multi-Directional Alerts.
This is true as the weather doesn't care what direction you're coming from.
Also, animals on the shoulder could cross the road and come back on again from the other side.
Please consider this suggestion.9 votes -
Checking if the one who declared a radar false alarm is moving or not, because if not he's a cop
If I just passed a radar and declared it, the cop can just mark it as false, but the cop (in most countries) has static location, so why not checking if the one who declared it as false is moving or not.

Hazard on the Road: Add Construction with People
In my state, you must slow down to 45 MPH construction zones when workers are present. If there are no people you can proceed to posted construction speed (60 MPH in 70 MPH zone)

Ability to enter when a lane is closed due or a turn is temporarily blocked
Need the ability to identify temporary lane closures as well as temporary turn prevention due to any activity. I have experienced this a number of times where a lane is closed off for some type of activity but Waze doesn’t allow me to report it to x pet for saying Construction on road when it isn’t always construction. Sometimes lanes are closed temporarily for events being held in the streets or even a right turn isn’t allowed because of road closures or other work being performed.

Potholes are removed by bad actors
I drive rideshare and diligently mark devastating potholes just for them to be removed moments later. There may be bad actors in high clearance vehicles with big tires removing these, or just people that don't see them from a different lane. It's likely many just want the notification off screen and mindlessly downvote. It needs to be more difficult to get rid of pothole reports, or allow us a setting to make recent reports more persistent regardless of downvotes.

"Roadkill" is no longer an available option to select when reporting a Hazard! Why?
Add "Roadkill" back! 1000's of Wazers are asking the same question! Do you not listen to your followers? Geez!

Make UR emails replyable
Like right now there's a couple of reporters that reply to the emails instead of clicking on the links. Would it be possible to create a certain email wildcard that posts what they say in the email onto WME? I've seen this done with other businesses so I don't know why Waze can't do it. For the meantime at least add a banner at the top of the email body stating it's a no reply email and to use the links provided instead.
7 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

alerts for police with specified time
Change the alerting system to say “police reported 1.8 miles ahead 1 minute ago” or something along those lines. We need more information on where they are so I don’t have to search for them on the map and figure out how long ago it was.

CLOSED STREET REPORT IMPROVEMENT
Hello,
I would like to suggest an improvement of Waze driver interface. Specifically cleaning up and making it easier for the driver to report a street live street closure. When doing that, the map that pops out makes it very difficult to recognize which street we want to indicate that is closed. Cleaning this option up and adding street names would greatly improve ability to report it and warn other drivers.
Thank you in advance

Pindrop for Hazard Report
Pindrop sighting report. Everytime i sighted a hazard such as broke down vehicles, police, construction or etc on the road, as a rider, i needed to safely navigate myself through the situation before I can pull out my phone and report it, by then, I will be a distance away and the report will be inaccurate.
If I could pin drop the location of the incident/hazard, it will be a lot more useful for road user.
In country such as Singapore, both hands must be on steering wheel at all times. Also, it is an offence for driver to touch…

Crime Hazards
Add additional hazards for crime, such as: aggressive panhandlers, squeegee boys, people doing wheelies or donuts in the middle of the street, street racing, ect. Most people would like to avoid that activity.

User Reporting - initial and more details
Add an option to email reporting user for more details when creating the report. The long press on report currently gives options for Police, Hazard and Traffic. My suggestion is to add one for 'email me' where the user can provide full details when they are not driving. Navigating to the Report, finding the correct option, before finding the Later option is not safe when you driving.
As editors, there are a lot of reports with minimal detail. Posting a request for the submitter to provide more details rarely gets a response.

Siri Shortcuts for reporting - PLEASE
How about enabling Siri interaction so users can report things hands-free? “Siri, tell Waze to report police” or “Siri, tell Waze to report a stopped vehicle on the shoulder” would be a lot safer and easier while driving than fumbling with the phone or CarPlay UI. Please consider it.

Rest areas along the route should be reported. Drivers will likely get tempted to type while driving if they suddenly need a rest area
Rest areas should be on the report along the route. Report should include something like “Rest Area 5 miles ahead”
