Be able to dismiss the traffic alert when traffic is gone
It happens often to drive through roads where traffic alerts have been reported but gone at the time of driving there. It would be useful to be able to dismiss the traffic reports

Indiquer les temps supplémentaires (delta) sur la carte à chaque croisement/sortie d'autoroute
Sur un trajet quotidien, les routes alternatives sont souvent connues.
Quand Waze indique de prendre un autre itinéraire que celui qu'on a l'habitude de faire, il peut être intéressant d'indiquer quel temps supplémentaire on mettrait en restant sur le chemin habituel.
Une différence (delta) de 1 ou 2 minutes est peut-être sans importance.Le trajet alternatif peut manquer de wazer indiquant s'il est viable ou non. Du coup il appartient plutôt au conducteur de décider s'il souhaite l'emprunter ou pas.
Ce que je suggère est d'indiquer par un nombre sur les routes sortant du trajet défini par Waze le temps supplémentaire (ou parfois le temps en moins) que cela prendrait.
Ex : rester sur l'autoroute dans un embouteillage me coute 1 minute de plus que de sortit ? Ok, je préfère rester.
Rester sur l'autoroute me fait perdre 10 minutes. Ok, voyons voir le chemin alternatif !Ce sont des éléments de calcul que Waze possède déjà car ce sont ceux qui lui permettent de mettre à jour le trajet de manière automatique.

Photo enforced speed zones
Is there any way to add an option to give locations of photo enforced speed zones? They are not legal in most states, so you aren't really looking for them. Some people may not even know that they exist. Totally got tagged in Iowa...

obd2
Poderiam adicionar um plugin no Waze para se conectar ao OBD2 para usar a velocidade e a quilometragem real do veiculo, quando dentro de um túnel, ou até quando cai a conexão com o GPS, para poder postar um aviso, já vi carro parado em rota dentro do túnel em local perigoso, existem varios programas de obd2 e os aparelhos bluetooth estão baratos.

Flash directions section of the screen when approaching turn
When approaching a turn flash the directions section of the screen a few times. This allows for users that use waze with the volume down but can still alert them to an approaching turn by getting their attention.

Miscellaneous Suggestions - Reporting Items Not There and Hazards
I would suggest having the ability to select reports and mark them as not there. For instance, oncoming traffic reports of speed traps or traffic that have since cleared up but not timed out.
Also reporting a road hazard of disabled vehicle on the road. Currently there's vehicle on shoulder and you can report an accident on the road. We should be able to note a disabled vehicle blocking one lane.
Lastly there should be the ability to note in an accident if it's affecting both sides (when EMS responds from both directions and closes lanes), when the road is closed as a result of the major accident thus allowing Waze to re-route everyone taking that road, and an accident report with rubbernecking which would indicate the accident but also there's a traffic jam (one or both sides) as a result of onlookers.

Faster Voice Navigation Cadence
She speaks much slower than, say, Google Maps navigation. Speeding the prompts' delivery minimizes interruptions to other audio you might be listening to.

Enhanced Hazard Reporting by adding "Affecting Flow of Traffic" option
Everybody has seen a car on the side of the road but how many of those are actually affecting the flow of traffic? People post them to gain points but often times it is not useful information.

Semaphore optimization of speed, driving time and fuel economy.
To drive faster and keep fuel try to know the semaphore timing.
In this case can advise drive slower or faster (if possible) to drive non-stop in the semaphore green corridor, when possible.8 votes -
50cc 45km/h Scooter navigation
I’d love to have a scooter navigation, that knows what the traffic situation looks like and that gives you the exact route. I live in the Netherlands and 45km/h scooters often need to switch between de cycling lane and the car lane, so it would be nice if the navigation would give you the exact route including when you need to switch from one lane to the other. First try this for the Netherlands as we drive a load of scooters and cycle a lot, and because of this, our traffic signs are good to follow which makes it easier to follow the rules and also easier to make this a real in app feature

Commercial Navigation
There are a lot of commercial vehicles on the road. I think it would be nice to give the user the ability to input the height and weight of their commercial vehicle including oversized and overheight loads. Editors would include clearance heights when a road level 1 crosses over a Ground level, level 2 over level 1, etc. as well as roadway weight restrictions as displayed on signage (eg: Weight limit 8 tons empty weight) as well as general commercial truck restrictions as displayed on signage. The app can then take this information into account when large commercial vehicle operators request navigation. This can be achieved by adding only a few fields to the map editor for clearance height, truck restriction and weight restriction. Pilot escorts could use these functions to navigate for overheight vehicles.

Add stoplights and stop signs. It makes calculating your next turn much easier to figure out while driving in unfamiliar territory.
It is much easier to calculate your next turn when you have a landmark like a stop light or stop sign.

Change starting point
Choosing an alternative starting point other than my current location is next to impossible in Waze. I hear complaints from many people who struggle with this issue. Why not make it easy like other map navigation programs? Seems like an easy fix and would go a long way to ending this frustration and concern. I hope you take this concern seriously and do something about it.

Variable speed for different vehicle classes
The speed limit for diffent commercial vehicles is different.
Small vans, lorries, trailers etc.My proposal is to be able to choose your vehicle class so the speed limit warning and display is accurate to the vehicle you are driving.
Cheers, Paul.

More re-routing flexibility
I would love to specify how open i am to re-routing before a journey - i.e. being able to choose ‘reroute automatically - get me there ASAP’ or ‘don’t reroute without confirmation - prefer my route where possible.’
Why: I drive a specific one of two ways out of my city when taking a long journey because while the other road is technically faster if you drive at the speed limit it is also dangerous and has poor surface conditions. This means in reality it is slower and stressful. If I do not manage to cancel the re-routing in time, I then have to either try to select an alternative route on my CarPlay (not advisable driving at 60mph on winding country roads), or stop the car to reinstate what I told it before I set off.
