Tagging the lane of an accident
It would be nice for users to have the ability to tag what lane(s) an accident is in when they report an accident. Often users add this information in comments, but that takes time and becomes hazardous to look through as you're driving.

User coud select correct lane
In my country (Brazil), there are many places with Express & Local lanes running side by side.
In that case when Waze makes the route and the traffic changes quickly, I decide to choose a different lane (for exemple express instead of local), I wanted to be able to "touch" the screen and select the correct lane, so Waze could re-route and show me the rights options to continue my route.

Tell me the lane number for an accident or debris
For all alerts, please say WHICH LANE the debris or accident or roadkill, etc. is in. That way we will know in advance to change lanes. Number the lanes and put a little lane map on the screen so we all know which lane is which.

Better lane guidance
Better lane guidance would be a big help. I’m coming from Google Maps. I would get notified at more than a mile when to get into a lane before a turn and how far over I need to be. So 1 mile to 2 miles out would be good especially on the expressway when traveling at higher rates of speed. If the notification became more frequent the closer you got to An exit or to a turn that would be a help as well

Showing lane signs even without navigation
Sometimes you drive without navigation and reach an intersection where some of the lanes go in different directions, and because of the road conditions the signs are hidden and it is impossible to understand which lane to choose.
It would be useful if the directions of travel in each lane were displayed on the screen, as there is during navigation but without highlighting any lane.2 votes -
Lane display in AA/CarPlay
Hello,
I suggest changing the lane display on Waze in CarPlay/Android Auto. The display is too small although there is the possibility of having a larger display without losing the basic instructions.
Here is an example --> https://photos.app.goo.gl/yDCGB9X6EhJyWogAA

Rettungsgasse / Rescue Lane - Reminder while traffic jams
In Germany and most European countries, you are supposed to form a rescue lane whilst being in a traffic jam on a highway/Autobahn.
This emergency corridor is always between the very left lane and the one next to her, so all cars need to move to the very left / very right on those lanes, making enough space to let emergency vehicles through.
After several incidents where people died after emergency services being stuck in the traffic jam, the German government wants to increase the sentence on ppl not making space for the rescue lane.My Suggestion:

Exit express lane
Waze should tell when to exit express lane in order to have enough time to get to road exit. Your directions give highway exit number but don’t say when to leave express in time to cross several lanes to exit highway.

Blocked lane(s) selection
When a user selects to report a hazard on the road with either a stopped vehicle or object on road, display a view of that road’s lanes so they can select the lane(s) that are blocked for drivers approaching to prepare.

Add lane icons near the car collision icon
Hello waze! It occurred to me that they put an icon next to a car crash, some arrow that has 3 points. Left, center or right, because I see that many people always ask what lane the collision is in. They say that in the CHAT, that is, the messages, apart from saying negative things.... then... allow those who put car crash icons to also put IN WHICH LANE the accident is, so that the people who see it, you don't have to log in to see the messages. thx a lot, bye!

Indicate best lane on upcoming turns with multiple left or right lanes
I find myself still using google maps while driving in the city, because it gets tricky when for example, a right turn needs to be made quickly after a left turn, and there are two left lanes. Google maps indicates that the right left lane is the correct lane. I love everything else about waze and if this one feature was added, I would use it at all time and cut out maps completely!

Better carpool express lane data
sometimes the navigation directs the driver to express/carpool lanes, but if your a single driver they are not available options. I think there should be a setting or drive option to set how any people are in the vehicle so the navigation can readily use carpool/express lanes to drivers advantage to bypass traffic and make the drive faster. Since carpool and express lanes sometimes have operating times based on the time of day it would be helpful
9 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

Adding report options "Oil Trace" and "Lane Closed" for Germany
I've seen that in Hungary there's the option to report at least a Closed Lane. This is also relevant for Germany. For example a closed lane on a relatively well known route of a driver could be dangerous. He's expecting a certain amount of lanes but doesn't know the newest conditions on road.
So please enable this option for drivers in Germany.The "Oil Trace" report could be helpful as well. Often such reports are mentioned in the radio. It would be a step forward to more safety in Germany and the rest of the world to add…
