search and set destination by grid reference
In the UK, websites often give a Grid Reference as opposed to a Postcode for the location of an event, especially in the countryside where a postcode covers a large area. The grid reference is therefore a more accurate way of indicating the destination.

Inshore boat hazard and police icons
Please add a boat police icon for inshore "water waze." Many times we are detained and searched on the way into the ramps or home and it would be nice to know what areas are being observed and delayed by police and game wardens. I was thinking of a sinking boat for hazards and a blue light boat for law enforcement.

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.

Sinalização para "área perigosa" / Dangerous área alert
Portuguese: Seria importante ter um sinal de alerta para áreas perigosas ou de alta criminalidade aqui no Brasil. Realmente é um recurso muito importante.
English: It would be really important to have an alert such as "dangerous area ", for areas with hogh number of criminality, here in Brazil.

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.

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.

Rally navigator voice
What if we could enjoy a navigator voice with similar indications like a real RALLY navigator (co-driver), obviously much more simplified and reduced to our daily drive capabilities, cars and routes! Something like
"Right 5 over crest, Left 3 don't cut, 100 Right 1 tidy into Left 2, 300, left 2 over kick into right 3 tightens." eheh
It should be more exciting then the stock "turn right, then turn left".7 votes -
Directions alert
The “audio alert” given by the program proves to be very punctual when travelling in town or small villages, as the alerts are given with sufficient anticipation.
Instead I believe the alerting system become less effective on highways or expressways, where the speed of the vehicle is much higher and the driver’s reaction to further maneuvers is evidently reduced. There is in fact no “preliminary” alert of the subsequent step to be taken, such as “You exit will be at 1000 meters”; this preliminary alert would give, in my opinion, a sort of range of the “distance” for the future…7 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!

Give us a target speed in traffic jams to help Waze users optimize average throughput
I recently read this article: http://www.bbc.com/autos/story/20160428-how-ai-will-solve-traffic-part-one
It talks about how going slower and keeping more space between your car and other cars can actually improve the flow of traffic when it's all jammed up. It also explains how autonomous cars will make this work much better, but also indicates that we can help improve things now by changing our driving behavior.
The article also explains how the highway patrol sometimes sends cars through traffic jams on the highway to break it up and re-channelize it.
If the Waze app could give users a target speed based on traffic conditions, and…

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

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.…

Automatic Favorites
If I deviate from my route and stop for any length of time, Waze should prompt me to add as a favorite place when I resume. For example if I stop at grocery store, car wash, gym or any other place on way home I'd like to have I my favorite places to add as stop on future trips. Likewise if I'm on a trip and stop at great place to eat, I might want to stop next time.

After the redesign Waze no longer routes me properly.
Was the navigation ruined in the redesign? Give me back my old Waze.7 votes -
Avoiding Via
At first step, the purpose of this list (or menu) is:
Any user to create a list of roads, streets, etc. that will be avoided by them, either by holes (poor maintenance) or Unsafe (crime) preventing Waze of create routes for such via.In a second step, the policies and area managers (Waze) create risk zones with respect to crime.

Classificação de bairro no waze ( Perigoso ou Não)
Meu nome é Veronica de la Hoz, moro em SP - Brasil e estou muito triste com o ocorrido no RJ este final de semana e eu moro na Al. Júpiter 39, no Condominio Jd. Iolanda e um dia o waze me mandou para traz do condomínio que não tem saída e onde é perigoso é uma comunidade onde há desmanche.
A minha sugestão é nós mesmo classificar os bairros como perigoso ou não, ou classificação de perigoso,assim como classificamos com transito ou não.
Eu sei que vocês não tem culpa , mas precisa ter esta classificação mesmo que o…7 votes
