Creating option in settings to 'Allow U-turns when available'
Currently in the UK, the Waze app will not suggest a u-turn when it is legal and available, and instead it will reroute you in big, difficult, time-wasting loops. It usually happens when you make a wrong turn or are in a rural area. A simple U-turn can save lots of time and frustration but Waze suggests 10+ minute detours instead. Very frustrating and something the user should have power over, given that the country (The UK in this case) allows u-turns on its roads except when specifically prohibited.

Navigation start option
I would like to see a feature added to only begin verbal navigation once you have driven a certain distance from your home or work - say 1 to 2 miles or at least the first few turns that get you out of your neighborhood or where you work.

Bicycle roof racks warning
Add a warning when approaching places such as your home garage to avoid crashing bicycles on roof rack.
The problem is when you are transporting your bikes on your roof rack you sometimes forget they are there.
Maybe Waze users could add places where there is height limitations.

Line guidance / colour of the arrows
Hello,
Would it be possible to change the colors of the arrows? In red the routes that should not be taken, in green those that should be taken?
On my phone, the lanes to take appear in dark white and those not to be taken in light gray.
When you need this functionality, it's usually in an unfamiliar place and you have to concentrate more on the road.
A quick glance cannot differentiate white from gray.Thank you

Preimptive Traffic Notification - Please read it is not just what it seems by headline.
Preemptive traffic notifications! Sounds Alarm, chirp, chime, text w.e. the user selects when normal route would be jammed BEFORE leaving their home/spot. You have the info and capability to recognize patterns in people’s lives. If they leave at 7:30 to get on a bus, subway, truckers cranking up, no matter who it is, Waze could see that their normal route is delayed 2 hours and let them know BEFORE they have left. Think of the possibilists. People with flexible schedules, Truckers, Subway goers… Repeating but flexible route drivers (delivery etc.)… lots of people benefit so much! Even me, because I…

Turn off labels of streetnames while navigating
Sometimes long streetnames overlap that much of the map that large parts of the maps or even (future) instructions are not visible anymore on the map.
I would like to see an option to disable the streetname flags on the map while navigating.
An example of what I mean can be found in this URL:

Android Auto - Allow Waze destination "history" to be displayed as part of Android Auto.
"Native" Waze on my android phone shows past historical destinations when I initiate a new destination search. When using Waze as part of Android Auto - only destination favorites are shown. Please allow Waze to show historical destination list when used in Android Auto.

highlight traffic jams
Better highlight of traffic jams on the map. AT the moment, it seems impossible to see an upcoming jam when Waze is following a route. The route track overlays the jam indication of the maps and the whole thing is not very visible. Make it clearer by making introducing stripes, checkerboards or whatever.

No alerta ZONAS PELIGROSAS
Considero importante que en el trayecto durante la navegación evite transitar por ZONAS PELIGROSAS (ZP) ya que cuando uno no conoce la zona por la que transita se encuentra que, guiado x el gps, termina pasando por asentamientos q resultan peligrosos. Al menos, opino que la aplicación podría avisar que durante el trayecto se va a transitar por una Zona Peligrosa para uno poder elegir si desea cambiar el trayecto.

Indicate toll roads on main navigation screen
Because a tiny icon in the route summary doesn't cut it and is often missed!
Also ability to show (in route summary) the cost and payment methods (cash, card, NFC, NPR, etc) of the toll road so you can plan ahead.

next service station - distance/time
On a long drive it'd be handy to be able to see:-
"Service station 1 - 3miles/5mins"
"Service station 2 - 45miles/38minutes"11 votesHey,

Show more navigation instructions when losing GPS signal
It would be nice if the client could show more than the next turn (on the screen) when driving by navigation and the GPS signal is lost.
The next turn is shown in green on the bottom left corner, and the 3 following driving instructions could show up in orange above this when GPS signal is lost.
If there is a speed cam between two of the next turns, is should also show up in this "navigation list".
