Ramp and road closures
If there is a way to report closed roads and highway ramps, I can't find it. And maybe others can't too, which could be the reason why closures I've driven up to this week were not reported. Sometimes a firetruck has a road blocked. Sometimes it's a block party or a broken down vehicle. The reasons don't matter. The closed roads and ramps are what matter

Waze is allowing police to clear locations reported
Waze is allowing police to clear locations reported and waze is not allowing us to re add camera locations after police clear locations while police and cameras are still in those locations

Closure sign colouring.
Could you possibly change the background of the "closure" sign? Its currently red on red which makes it a little difficult to see (even more so if you are colourblind).

Train Blocking Roads
Waze users need to be able to report if a train is blocking a road. I am a school principal and students are late to school because parents have no way of seeing if a road is blocked by a train until they pull up to it.

Common hotspots for speed camera vans/ speed traps
To have common hotspots for speed vans or speed traps added to the map. This would allow users to be aware of common spots for speed camera vans. Yes shouls be doing the speed limit but at the same time we all go over from time to time especially areas we may not no or the change speed limits.

Disable automatic Update Request route reporting on higher level roads.
Under certain circumstances, Waze seems to automatically submit automatic reports - but there seem to be too many of them (big time cost for editors that process and respond to URs following up for feedback, generally no response from the "reporter" because they didn't report anything themselves).
This specific request is to disable "Incorrect route", "Incorrect turn" or other similar problems on higher-level divided roads (Motorway, Major Highway, Minor Highway). When we have roadworks, the roads authority will often set up contraflow lanes on the opposing direction's roadway. This seems to produce numerous automated reports that have no value (because…

Add the time when reports are made
When was the report made? 2 minutes ago? 20 minutes ago? An hour ago? Be nice to have the time stamp.

Reports ahead
It will be great if the user can choose the alerts types in "Reports ahead" tab. Even if turned off in Reports, they are still shown in the list. For example I'm only interested in police and speed cameras reports ahead. Instead I see countless "Speed limit" , "Dummy camera" , "Road bump" in X kilometers.

Police Speed Check instead of Police
80% of my “Police” alerts that pop up are for people that have been pulled over, which is technically “Vehicle on Shoulder”. I end up reporting “not there” and then change it to Vehicle on Shoulder. I suggest changing Police and Police (Hidden) to Police Speed Check. This will eliminate the confusion of a speed check vs a car on the shoulder.

Weather
Icy road and severe weather alerts need a quicker expiration time. I just did a road trip that had hundreds of icy road and severe weather alerts that were 2-8 days old for roads that were dry and skies that were clear. I could only clear one when there were over 4 reports stacked on the same location.

Add > Hazard > On road > Vehicle Stopped/Broken down
Knowing if a vehicle is stopped on the road or on the shoulder is critical. This information could be life-saving. We recommend updating your navigation app to include this feature.

Car stopped ON road ie: transport unloading new cars
In Ontario we have frequent stopped vehicles in the centre turning lanes of roadways. They stop to unload new vehicles for car dealerships. Would like an option to report car/vehicle stopped ON the roadway, separate from the “car on shoulder” option

Being able to pinpoint the exact location of a cop, wreck or other map issue
I think Wazer should be able to pinpoint the exact location of a cop, wreck or etc. I know that in the state that I live in, if a cop sees you on the phone, they’re going to pull you over and give you a ticket. So therefore, I can only report a cop after I have already passed them, which leads to an incorrect location of where the cop actually is.

Road Humps, not bumps.
Waze UK calls them Bumps, but they should be called Humps.
Hump is a noun, they are hump shaped, like a humped-back bridge.
Bump is a verb, you can bump into a door, a car can bump into post.3 votes -

Drunk
Subject: Innovative Idea for Enhancing Road Safety- Reporting Drunk Drivers on Waze.
I propose adding a feature that allows users to report suspected drunk drivers directly through the app. Similar to how users can report hazards or police activity, a “Report Drunk Driver” button could alert nearby drivers of a potentially dangerous situation. This could help keep drivers safe by providing timely warnings and allow law enforcement to be notified for quicker intervention.
This feature could include:
• A Quick Reporting Option: Users could tap a button to report a suspected drunk driver, including the vehicle’s description and location.
•…3 votes -
Remove achievement points after reporting
Again my main goal is to improve the app and the safety in the traffic.
After reporting a hazard, a car on shoulder a speed trap or else the app immediately shows the points I received for this report. The big problem is, that in that time the report-button is not shown and can't be used. So if I have to make two reports in short time for example a roadwork and a car on shoulder or I want to report that the left AND the middle lane is blocked I have to look almost 10 seconds on my phone…3 votes -
Stop cops from reporting “no longer there”
If a vehicle hasn’t moved for a set time (ie a cop doing a speed trap) don’t let them report “no longer there” or remove the icon. If other wazers are moving on the road, but the one cancelling reports is not, suspend the account. Especially if they are cancelling multiple reports from different wazers in the same area.
