roundabout symbol for right hand drive cars
I have noticed that the navigation / next turn symbol for round abouts is for left hand drive car roads.
so for us who drive from the right side of the car the roundabouts show a right turn going the wrong way around the round about for the third exit.
the map itself is correct, it goes the proper way around, but the next turn signal is wrong6 votes -
Turn Signal about 200 feet sooner. 350 Feet Perfect!!
I was using Waze and I was having issues with the turn signal at 150 ft. I was missing turns. I drive for Uber. Please give me another 200 feet like google. 350 feet is perfect I'm not distracted by watching the Waze GPS.
At 350 feet I know it's time to slow down and put my blinker on. Now Waze gives the signal to turn at 150 feet I have to put my blinker on and turn immediately. I've missed a few turns. I feel it is unsafe when driving at Rush Hour or through crowded areas like Jersey…6 votes -
PELIGRO, GRACIAS A WAZE UN DELINCUENTE HA EVITADO EL CONTROL POLICIAL
No me gustaría que a mi hijo lo atropellara un conductor borracho que acaba de evitar un control de la policía gracias a los avisos en Waze, o que un delincuente mate a alguien porque ha evitado dichos controles y sigue haciendo de las suyas, incluso que un comando terrorista siga su camino porque ha sido informado de los puestos de control de la policía.
NO A LOS AVISOS DE PUESTOS DE CONTROL DE LA POLICÍA. ELIMINEN ESA OPCIÓN DE WAZE.

Suggestion of inclusion of hazardous areas
Hello, I would like to suggest an inclusion of tagging by users or even by the developer of dangerous areas and if it is marked by the user, after a certain number of markings, that the area or street is marked for a longer period or permanently

Garage sale app
Waze should add a garage sale app where people could for a fee, post an address and the day and time they will have them. Then the garage sale will appear when the event happens. People could search for garage sales. Garage sale hunting is big business and it is currently being done by people hanging signs on street corners. People have to drive to search for these sales which waste a lot of time and gas. It harms the environment.

Safe Area
It would be great if Waze gave some kind of general warning for areas that are no go areas due to crime. Sadly South Africa has too many of these areas. I am a South African and use Waze daily. Its also dangerous for tourists. You can literally within 2 roads find yourself in a very dangerous and dark area that is full of crime.

Emergency Mode
In states of emergency, such as natural disasters, hurricane, floods, earthquakes. It would be nice if Waze switched to "Emergency Mode" in this mode you can mark gas stations as having gas or not with notes about long lines. Ads would be removed and replaced with the location of emergency services (Hospitals, shelters) and locations can be marked with water/canned food/ propane..

When showing "Routes" options, show "average speed" per option.
When showing "Routes" options, in addition to "time" and "distance", show "average speed" per option. A user may want to choose an option whereby he/she is moving at a greater average speed, even if it means extending the duration of the trip, especially if the added duration is insignificant. For example, a user may prefer to travel 60 km in 1 hour than 40 km in 55 minutes because instead of siting in traffic the user is moving at a greater speed.

Look on map events from Report ahead list
It would be useful if you can see on map events listed in Report ahead. Let say you are driving and you notice some traffic jam ahead so you just select that event and it shows on map where you can decide if you change your way or stay.

Display Saved Time when Waze changes the route in case of traffic
The idea would be to be able to accept or deny the route change when Waze decides there is a best route than the current one.
In other words, let us accept or not to switch to the new route depending on haow much tilme is saved. For me saving 1 to 5 minutes on a new route is not always necessary.6 votes -

Present Route Options First
I recently was going to drive home, a 30 mile trip. Waze said traffic was bad and it was going to take an hour and twenty minutes. I opened up the route options and was appalled to see Waze was going to take me on a route 52.7 miles (for a 30 mile trip) to save 11 minutes. Drive an extra 22.7 miles?! Cmon Waze, gotta do better than that. Please initiate routes by allowing us to select our route by showing us an overview of our options. Thanks!

Skip suggested turn
It would be helpful to be able to skip a turn that Waze suggests when I know that I'm not going to make that turn. This way, Waze could already be recalculating instead of waiting for me to miss the turn and THEN recalculating, which takes time. So maybe there could be a button to press to make Waze calculate the next available turn. This would be useful when Waze tries to send me on a street that I know will be packed at that time of day or that I know is a hazardous street.

SVP remettre la voix qui nous donne les noms de rues ( au lieu de la voix Ado ou Enfants ). La conduite n'est pas un amusement !
Arrêter de changer les voix et laisser la voix indiquant le noms ds rues.... sans les voix Ados et enfants. (La conduite n'est pas un amusement !)
Et pouvoir avertir de "la pluie".

Make Traffic Slowdowns More Visible when using Directions
Invert the color scheme when using directions so the purple stripe is not overshadowing traffic red/yellow/orange. Example: https://twitter.com/steviecoolest/status/723576075452841985

Make a difference between a solo police speed radar control and traject control.
When you enter a traject speed control zone, it would be great to have a time bar in the display, just the way it is shown during traffic jam. Off course for traject speed contole zone, it should be in a other color

Proximity routing for Home/Work
Many people use waze on a daily basis as a way to avoid traffic. We know how to get home or to work, and sometimes our work places have multiple entrances. These entrances don't always trigger waze that you have arrived, so even once I'm in the building, suddenly I hear waze trying to route me through the office hallways from my pocket.....
A new feature called "proximity routing" that the user can enable for their "home/work" locations would take care of this problem. Once the driver gets close, waze would indicate you have arrived and go into sleep mode.…

Add a random voice option to keep things interesting on long trips
On long trips, the same voice and sayings get old pretty quick. By adding a random voice option, it would be fun to hear what the next voice and saying is each time
