  1. Needing multiple people to remove a posted notifier (traffic, police, etc)

    The fact that a single person can remove a notifier by saying “it’s no longer there” is a little broken I think the app should need a minimum of 3 users saying the (traffic, debris, accident, police, etc) are no longer there. -ps got a **** ton of ideas first ones free next 50 need a job opportunity

  2. More specific warnings

    Can there be an option to report a speed van/camera in Ireland?
    Currently speed vans (privately operated) are reported as police which is not accurate but its the closest option however there is a big difference between a parked private speed van and a garda checkpoint/police.

    Thank you!

  3. Ambulance/Fire/Armed Police Blocking Road

    I don’t understand why roadworks get precedence over emergencies. So many emergencies such as ambulances, firetrucks and even police cars regularly close or block roads temporarily causing extreme traffic jams so there should be an option to warn Wazers so they can opt to take a different route. I live in a city centre (Birmingham) where I am faced routinely with a blocked road due to an emergency such as an overturned car, a person trapped in a car, cars on fire, house fires, standoff situations with police because somebody is held up in a property with a gun or…

  4. Police reporting needs to be on main map instead of sub-menu

    All three police reporting buttons need to be displayed on the main map, since these are the three buttons that you'll use the most. Having to click into a sub-menu and find the button that you need while driving is entirely too distracting while driving. It would be much safer if users were able to simply click the 'police visible', 'police hidden', or 'police - other side' buttons, without having to access a sub-menu.

    There are two things that people use Waze for: traffic routing and police reporting. All other things in the reporting sub-menu are extra and can stay…

  5. Add to reporting options

    Please consider adding an addition to the hazard, crashes or traffic jams portion of the reporting...I.e., hazard LEFT shoulder, crash RIGHT lane, RIGHT or LEFT lane closed merge right/left. Today we do not know where the issue is, and this would be super helpful in Miami traffic 😩

  6. Going back to correct reported hazard

    Since the fantastic (not sarcasm - I really like the update - for the most part) update after I attempt to report a hazard I’ve noticed if I tap the wrong category or want to back out to the previous screen, it cancels the entire report. Then I’m 1/2 a mile down the road and it doesn’t make sense to do a new report because the location won’t be accurate.
    Please PLEASE allow to back out of the category. Forget people saying “too many taps to report” if you keep from changing the location of the options muscle memory takes…

  7. 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!!

  8. One select to report

    To report an issue whilst driving is dangerous and requires 2 presses and some looking at the screen. Why not let driver press the report button just once, at an incident and when vehicle is stopped a reminder comes up on the screen to complete the report. Waze has already logged its location and the driver can then report the issue as normal.

  10. Reorganziable reports and reports on the main screen customization

    We should be able to organize the report types so it is easier to click certain ones. Also I’d be cool if we could permanently pin certain reposts on the screen so they are quicker to choose for more common reports in our areas

  12. Report Dangerous LED Lights

    LED lights such as unshielded floodlights or bright LED billboards are a traffic hazard. Adding an option to Waze to report blinding LED lights would be popular.

  13. Reports and Hazard Alerts

    Speed camera alerts or warnings should sound regardless of the speed travelling. I would rather know something is there even if under speed. GPS speed monitoring is not as accurate as a vehicles speedometer, it's usually 5mph out.

  14. Voice Activated Reports

    Being able to add a report by voice would be a more rapid, accurate and safer way to add a warning. For example, just saying "Waze...add POTHOLE" would be all that's needed, rather than press buttons on screen - which is dangerous when driviing. Also, using the screen takes time so you have often driven past the hazard once reported.

  16. Place report in different place than current location

    I wish to have an option to report police on the road but I want to set the point (like few kilometers behind not where I am currently). In my country there are radars on the road, installed in civil cars, but the police stop you after 4-5 km later. Even the other participants report the police there is not helpful because you already was registered by radar.

    So, an option to mark it later will help the other people to avoid that radar.

    Thanks!

  17. Current "top/bottom" radio buttons for confirming reports are difficult to press on bumpy roads. Can they be modified to be side by side?sid

    Very difficult to press top/bottom confirmation buttons to confirm a road condition when on a rough road surface. Can these be modified to be side by side?

  18. Améliorer la précision lors des signalements

    Bonjour il faudrait vraiment déclencher un signalement au moment où l’on appuie sur le bouton et pas une fois qu’on a effectué notre choix dans les 3 ou 4 sous-menus, ça décale l’incident de plusieurs centaines de mètres !

  19. Speed Light Camera, Temporary Speed Trap, unmanned Police vehicles need ability to add these

    With road construction going on around the nation, it's unfortunate that we still do not have the ability to add speed light cameras, or temporary speed traps that are common here in PA through construction zones. There also seems to be an increase in unmanned police vehicles sitting behind the k-rails running speed traps. It would be nice to have the ability to alert others. But also would be better if it was the same interface as it is for the police so save time digging through options looking for the one we want while on the road.

  20. Railroad Crossing Ticketing

    Hello, in Illinois we have an railroad crossing that tickets you when the lights come on and the fine is a hefty $250. In order to not let others fall into this trap could a speed camera icon or something be added to that crossing? The tracks run by the intersection of Irving Park Rd and Wood Dale Ave
