  1. Special preferences for Waze Volunteer Editors

    I suggest special preferences for Waze Volunteer Editors for both recognition of Volunteer Editors and also benefit to Waze. Sort of like Mood characters for Editors as a reward. But in this case it would be for the benefit of Waze operations and easier reports.

    1. Make it possible to place "Report Map Problem" first in the list since we are constantly scanning for map improvements.
    2. Make it possible to preload the Report contents with Editor information. Example, I like to prefix my notes with [Note: Sr-Navi-Gator report] and then follow with what ever I am reporting. This way other editors…

  2. Blocked Lane achievement points for reports and likes

    The Blocked Lane report is a terrific addition to reports. However, Waze users do not get any credit in Achievements for seen or likes as they do on other reports. This disincentivizes users from using the feature. I hope Waze will allow users to collect points for reporting a blocked lane as they do on all other reports.

  3. 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!

  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. POLLICY Suggestions from Wazers

    Dear Wazers,

    I believe Waze is an incredible tool, but I think there are opportunities for improvement. Have you considered incorporating features that allow users to suggest improvements to local governments and cities? For instance, users could report issues like potholes, malfunctioning traffic lights, or poorly synchronized signals directly through the app. Waze could then relay these reports to the relevant authorities responsible for maintaining roads and traffic infrastructure.

    Additionally, Wazers could provide suggestions for new roads, bridges, or traffic patterns, which could greatly enrich both the Waze experience and governmental planning efforts. By facilitating this exchange of information, Waze…

  7. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. Reporting dirt or dust on the shoulder

    After strong rains, it is common here in Brazil to see slopes partially falling into the road so that the shoulder is full of dirt, debris or sand. It would be nice if we could report that there is dirt on the shoulder. This is very dangerous (mainly for motorcycles).

  11. Option Police

    I would like to present here my dissatisfaction with your option regarding the presence of the police, I think that this option should be changed, for example by mobile radar information, and the reason is the following, every time we report the presence of police on the road or in stop operations, we are being "accomplices" with the trafficking of drugs, weapons, human beings, stolen cars, etc. this information is precious for those who commit this type of crime. And for users who use this option to indicate the presence of authorities in stop operations, just think that your car…

  13. 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!

  14. 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?

  15. 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 !

  16. 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.

  18. 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

  20. add "reported shooting"

    specifically for shots fired on public roadways. if alerted, drivers could seek nearest highway exit or consider alternate street route. am guessing an icon for this would belong under "Hazard".
