Pot Holes Don't Dissappear!
Once reported these should stay until told they've gone. They don't just dissappear by magic from the roads

Hazard Report End Date
Give users the option to set a hazard report time out or end date. It should default to something sensible for the type of hazard, but can be modified if desired.
For example, there are currently roadworks ongoing for a 2 month period on my daily commute while they are joining up roads and installing a roundabout. The road surface is gravel as they are replacing the road base.
Every day I report it, and almost every day it times out and disappears by the time I drive home again.
Similarly, potholes do not disappear until they are fixed -…

Workers Present and Emergency Vehicles
Maybe add a report for highway maintenance workers present. And perhaps generalize police to emergency vehicle present to include fire and ambulance. Police watch the highway for more than just speeders. It’s not always a good idea for everybody (such as drunk drivers) to know about specific police presence

Have different reports for police. Knowing if its a booze bus, speed camera, high patrol car etc would be very helpful.
Police report expanded or additional report features added

Remove the Blocked for Excessive Reporting 'Feature'
Dear Waze,
At the very least, the 'blocked for excessive reporting' feature is overly sensitive; I say this,
as on a recent long trip, just reporting the usual road hazards and police presence, was enough for the app to block me from making further reports.I was then unable to report a hidden police speed trap due to this feature, which to me, defeats part of the purpose of using this great app.
The blocking occurred even though I've reached 'Royalty Wazer' status. I'm unsure if this is a bug, as the setting is obviously overly aggressive.
Please amend or…

gas station status
Dear Madam/Sir! As per the current situation in Hungary, it would be an extreme valuable help if we could signal if there is gas available at a station and if the station is open or in a "closed due to no fuel" status. BR, Gabor Pikacs

Whiteout conditions
A report for winter whiteout conditions would be extremely useful and a great safety feature for those in the north that deal with these weather conditions.
Whiteouts are the single most dangerous winter driving we run into and they can come out of nowhere and effect very narrow sections of highway causing near zero visibility leading to pileups.4 votes -
Comments such as road closures cannot be entered from a computer
Currently, you can only send messages to chats on Waze, road closure events, etc. from your smartphone.
I think it would be good to be able to input it on a computer.
Live map on PC is disabled
I want you to be able to like it while you're at it
Please improve

Improve petrol station reporting
Manual option to report fuel pricing or larger range.
When at a fuel station, the request to update prices doesn't always occur so pricing isn't up to date.4 votes -

Add road closures that happen at specific times
For example, there’s a road on one of my regular routes that is currently undergoing construction and it’s a 2 lane highway so in order to work on it properly without traffic interference, they close the road between the hours of 10pm-5am Mon-fri. I noticed there is no option to report closures with a specific time frame which kind of sucks. I think it would be beneficial to add this feature as I know of quite a few other roads or ramps that close only at specific times.

Eliminate need for secondary app
My husband has to track mileage for work. He uses a secondary/concurrent app to track mileage. If Waze would track the mileage for him, it would eliminate the time/attention he spends on this other app and would free up his phone.

Landscape mode - report (not selectable)
About a year ago - report became unselectable via UI when the phone is in landscape mode.
A separate control to switch map orientation sits underneath. Change map rotation fires instead of the considerably larger "report ui"
Id like the UI to function - report being one of the more helpful pieces whilst driving.
