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.
- Make it possible to place "Report Map Problem" first in the list since we are constantly scanning for map improvements.
- 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…

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.

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!

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…

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 😩

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…

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.

Easier reporting
Hi
Firstly, thank you for this amazing app. I've passed on to several friends now.
My question is about reporting everyone's pet hate, Potholes!
Over the past few weeks I've submitted loads of locations while travelling but most of the time doing the average legal speed, by the time its been 'logged' either by tapping the appropriate icons or doing it via voice command, the pothole is then maybe several yards or more, behind me.My concern is that their locations won't always be spot on. Can I assume that when my screen comes alive with someone else's report that..…

Extra options when asked about hazards or Police still present
When asked if a vehicle is still a hazard or if Police are still at scene may the following (or similar) be added as options:
- vehicle still there but not a hazard anymore
- Police are on the other side of the road
- Police not conducting speed check duties (at scene for a Police incident)

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.

When a user approaches a collision, they should be able to report which direction they had to shift to. i.e Alert to merge left
When sitting in a traffic jam due to accidents or construction, users should be able to report which way (lane) to shift to so other users behind them can prepare to merge sooner and ease some congestion. Similar to reporting a vehicle on shoulder.

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).

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…

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!

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?
