Reporting feedback
The reporting was better earlier, now it is very problematic:
- If I click somewhere else than the icon (free space), the report is lost.
- If I click some wrong icon, the report is also lost, cause I can't now go back and change the intended report.
- There's no way to stop the timer (previously it was achievable through clicking on the free space, now such action closes the dialog).All those problems are making usage of reporting as a driver very troublesome - sometimes I only have time to click the report and want to finish in…

Movable Reports Button
Have movable Reports button. Newer vehicles have wide infotainment screens and here in the US the reporting button is to the far right on the screen. If it could be moved to the left (drivers) side allows for much easier access.

Allow unlimited reports to help long distance driving.
Stop limiting reports as this is no good after driving for a short while & encountering several reportable issues.

Road closure
Please for the love of god, let us report road closures in our general vicinity (5-10 mile radius), it's completely impractical and unsafe to only allow us to report something if we're 10ft from it. Often I'm on a motorcycle and can't be messing with my phone on the road, but even if I pull over, I can't report something a few hundred feet away or behind me. Especially in the mountains where reception is scarce. Same goes for gas prices. Make it make sense. Fix this.

Report single lane stopped traffic on motorway
Sometimes there is a build-up of traffic in lane 1 of the motorway when approaching a junction, due to issues off of the motorway - causing cars to slam on their brakes and sometimes even causing accidents - while lanes 2 and 3 remain free-flowing.
Please allow a way of reporting single lane stopped traffic, or "exit-lane spillover" traffic (not sure how it should be worded).

police alert when they take pictures from a bridge
In my country we have police officers standing on bridges and take photos of ppl on their phones while driving.
An option to report and alert other drivers will make the driver stop being on their phone faster.2 votes -
התראה על אזעקות וחיפוש אוטומטי של מקלטים בתל
לאור המצב הבטחוני, מאוד הגיוני שיהיה כחלק מהפיצ׳רים של הוויז, שכאשר מתקבלת התראה מפיקוד העורף על אזעקה, הוויז יתריע אוטומטית על זה שיש אזעקה באזור בו אתה נוסע כי הרי הוויז מחובר למיקום שלך באופן תמידי לאורך כל הנסיעה, ויותר מזה, הוויז אוטומטית יכווין אותך למקלט הכי קרוב לאזור שלך כדי שתוכל להתמגן באופן המיטבי.

Please make a choice and add for more options of report camera such as phone/seatbelt cameras. I only have & see police and mobile camera. Also when automatically shown camera ahead, put option for "still there - not there or removed" since some of them removed or moved another location. And how i confirm my reports still in map or just wated from nothing and not shown in map if i cross again? Some of my report i didn't see it when i was driving again in same road.. why and how it's work?

Zeitlimit für Meldungen erhöhen, falsche Meldungen löschen können / Increase the time limit for reports and delete false reports
Zeitlimit für Meldungen auf 60 Sekunden erhöhen oder keine automatischen Übernahmen. Icons, aus dem gelben Dreieck, um Verkehrsvorgänge zu melden, die angeklickt werden, werden viel zu schnell übernommen. Zudem Funktion einrichten, um fehlerhaft übernommene Icons wieder löschen zu können.
Increase the time limit for notifications to 60 seconds or disable automatic transfers. Clicked icons from the yellow triangle used to report traffic incidents are transferred far too quickly. Also, set up a function to delete incorrectly transferred icons.

Allow manual location selection on map for reports
allow users to manually select a road or location to make reports. currently, reports can only be made based on GPS location. but sometimes as drivers we are unable to report hazards or road blockage while driving and can only do so after we’re parked. by adding this feature, we can increase safety of road users as well as drivers who wish to make a report without doing so while driving

Bring back "wrong speed limit" report
I'm using Apple CarPlay if that changes anything.
Some years ago, I could report "wrong speed limit". Now there is no report button like this and it causes the entire reporting worflow much longer: I report a general issue, then someone finds it, asks me what the issue is about (and I don't always remember if it was about the limit), and then I reply and they fix it. It could be just 1 click and then someone fixes it - much faster!

Allow user to report a road closure
The slip road we needed to go on had been closed but Waze didn’t know about it. Then no matter what you keep getting redirected. It would be good to click on the part of the route that is closed in order to report, as you have to drive past to a safe spot to try find a better route.

Reporting offensive comment or possible scam in map chat
I have been noticing possible scammer on the map chat for months now. The strategy has always been the same- reports heavy traffic and posted comments asking people for money (if the traffic is 20km long, you’ll see multiple traffic reports and comments from the same account all the way!). There has been instances where I encountered people cussing and giving offensive remarks on the map chat as well.
It is frustrating seeing them on the map. I hope the team can do something about this.

Reporting counterflow option
Currently there is a report for road works, and there are options for closure of right, left or center lane . But there are no options for a counterflow situation on the motorway, eg where northbound traffic is led onto the southbound road half and users face oncoming traffic

Separate the responses to answer the question if a hazard is still there. They currently are directly above and below each other.
Separate the responses for the question if a hazard is still there. Bumps and undulations in the road cause me to hit the wrong button at times.

Different colour for bad weather reports
I have always noticed that bad weather reports have the same colour as general hazard reports. Wouldn't it be better to put the bad weather reports on a light blue that perhaps indicates something to do with the weather or on a bright red that indicates a more serious danger than the 'classic' yellow generic hazards?

Don't hide submitter username when they are a active map editor (at least Level 1 due to signing up for WME access) for Map UR's they report
Don't hide submitter username when they are a active map editor (at least Level 1 due to signing up for WME access) for Map UR's they report in able to make finding them for the reporter in WME easier when getting home so they can add clarification to the UR and if they didn't get to it fast enough and another editor takes a look at it they know what other editor reported it so they can engage with them appropriately either through the Waze Discord chats or a Waze Map Chat DM for better communication workflow then doing it…

Improved Alert System for Fixed Cameras at Junctions in Waze
I would like to suggest an enhancement to the way Waze handles alerts for fixed cameras at junctions. Currently, Waze only provides voice alerts for the direction in which the camera is set up, even though the camera captures images from every direction at the junction.
For better safety and user awareness, it would be highly beneficial if Waze could provide voice alerts for all directions when a fixed camera is present at a junction. This would ensure that drivers are fully informed of the camera’s location, regardless of the direction they are traveling.

After reporting a police, accident, hazards, thank you message does not appear
After reporting an police, hazard, or an accident, the thank you message doesn't go away. This makes impossible for me to report new hazards.
