There are no streets near the destination - Map Problem
When we have a location registered in Waze or Google and there are no nearby streets that can route the user there, Waze displays the error: Could not locate end point
My suggestion is that Waze should map Google/Waze locations, identify those that are too far from a street, and create a Map Problem (MP) in the Waze map editor so that we can check whether the street needs to be drawn or whether to simply close the MP as unidentified.

Speed bump database
Good morning, I work at Uberaba City Hall, Minas Gerais, Brazil and I would like to know if Waze can make the speed bump location database available, either in .kmz or .shp format. We would like to have this data to control and better monitor these elements. Furthermore, I would like to know if there is a way to enter the location of these speed bumps into the application, as I noticed that not all of them were identified. Thanks

Display addresses (street + house number) according to regional settings
The app assumes wrongly all countries display addresses like Americans do, like first the house number and then the street number, but in fact most Western countries use it the other way around:
Street name + house number
It seems Waze is American-centred as there is strangely enough after all these years no option to simply adhere to the local customs a country has.

Hospital as a Category
Hello! It occurred to me today as I tried to find the quickest route to the nearest emergency room that Waze might want to think about dropping “Drive-thru” from the category screen in favor of “Hospital.” At the very least, maybe users could be given the option to create their own categories?

Establish a Waze instance on Mastodon
With Twitter (X) becoming more and more unusable as a social media platform, some of us have migrated to other social media platforms to continue communicating about Waze. One such platform is Mastodon, which is part of a defederated network of social media servers that is gaining popularity, particularly among tech folks. If Waze could establish its own Mastodon server, then we could ensure that there is a dedicated space for us to spread the word about Waze, and it could be managed by the same folks that moderate the forums. To setup a server, you can start here: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/

Using previous traffic accidents to highlight dangerous corners, junctions and roads to warn drivers.
Maybe highlighting areas in red where there’s high accident rates or even putting a bouquet of flowers or something as a symbol for a previous road death. Making drivers more wary when entering a dangerous corner, junctions etc.

"Where To Park" UPDATE
A must-have UPDATE is for businesses to be able to fix the "where to park" feature. We have an orthodontist office and patients are parking 11 minutes away because of this feature. Meanwhile, we have a huge parking lot right at our building.

Prolong the website login time out
I use the website to find routes and send them to my app on the phone.
Every week or so, the website logs me out.
If all other websites keep a cookie and keeps you logged in for a long time, so should Waze.
It's really annoying that I need to login again every week.4 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Waze for CMV drivers
I’ve seen the multiple post about Waze making an app or integrating cmv options for the current app and notice that nothing gets more than 11 votes before the idea is shut down. Is there a reason for that? Waze is an extremely easy to use and reliable gps app. As an iOS user, I have downloaded google maps(iOS maps highly unreliable and hard to use), and other apps that I have to use in combination with the Omni tracks to keep on route and keep track with driving but none of these gives accurate enough road information as far…

Handicapped parking
As a handicapped person, it is frustrating when Waze leads me to a parking lot away from my destination. For example one my doctors offices has only handicapped places in front of it, but Waze sent me to a lot a block away.

Ok Google... What's my location...!!!...???
If you are involved in... or... reporting an accident to 911, the second question you are asked is "What is your location?".
If you're a "local" you may very well know the answer to that question... but a high percentage of the folks do not have an accurate answer to that question.
The best type of answer would be in the format of "Northbound land of US-999 just South of cross-street "Bankum Road".
That is certainly better than giving the operator GPS coordinates... if give the location in "real world terms".
Does Waze (or 'can' Waze) give the person need…

Stop using term "speed trap"
For automated camera enforcement of highway speed, the app warns of a "speed trap" ahead. That term implies there is some sort of trick or sneaky way the speed is being enforced, but that is not the case. There is plenty of signage and warning about the camera enforcement. I think you should change it to just "speed camera". That would also be consistent with when the app warns of a red light camera, not a "red light trap". Thanks!
