Traffic cleared button
I suggest you guys to add a traffic clear button, cause sometimes i have noticed that even if the actual route is clear, waze will show standstill traffic because of previous outdated reports.

Add motorcycle icons for sports bike and cruise
There is an icon for motorcycle that looks like a scooter. It would be cool to add different ones for sport bike and cruiser just like there are icons for various car types.

Option for reporting closed roads in map editor with start and end time
During big events many roads can be closed. It would be great if map editors (maybe only lvl2+) could report this directly in the map editor with a given start time and end time.

Integrate with Glympse!
You offer Foursquare check-in which is great! http://glympse.com/ is a great app that I use often to show people I'm on the way. At any time, they can see where I am and what my ETA is (if destination is set). I see you have MEET UP, which shows current location or destination, but Glympse sends constant updates showing where you are. It's available in Garmin Street Pilot and Navigon now (http://www.glympse.com/partners)!

Show tolls at the map with a button of ON/OFF so you can easily pick which ones to avoid and which ones to pass
Sometimes we have a long route with many tolls. Some of them are worth avoiding and some are not. The option for avoiding tolls is also too hidden.
The idea is to put on the map and/or on the represented route after you chose it, buttons on each toll so you can avoid them or not individually.
This way would be also easier to switch between avoiding and not avoiding.10 votes -
Add Bus stops.
We're already able to mark parking spots. I'd like to be able to mark where a bus stop is (maybe with route/bus names), be able to toggle it on/off the map and be able to search for it.

Partnership with blablacar?
Why not propose to blablacar users to program their trip and send it to waze account (and all planned stops), then the blablacar users can share their trip to their friends, they will be able to follow their trip through facebook (with the existing function).

Police traffic stop - recording speed
I would like to see an action that is a button always on the app screen displayed that allows you to capture speed and other information about your location, etc., when you are being pulled over by a police for speeding. Allow the user's to review the data at stop point to know their speeds, lets say 5 minutes prior to pressing the ticket button. Also, email the data to the user's email.

Add a "quit Waze" button inside the top rubbon when the destination has been reached
When we arrive to destination. A rubbon is showed with "park" and 3 other buttons.
The idea is to add a button to quickly quit Waze which is what I do each time I arrive to destination :)

Show live time delta for alternate routes
I'd love to see Waze show alternate routes as I'm driving. In the ideal world, this would be live and dynamic, but that might be way to hard of a problem. An alternate would be to allow me to specify alternate routes for my saved locations (i.e. my normal commutes).
For example (distances, driving times from google): I work in downtown Seattle and live near the University. Waze often wants me to take I5N -> to NE 45th St [2.7mi, 8min]; I don't like the bridge segment of I5, and I hate driving through the University neighborhood (both are subject to unexpected delays). So I usually opt to ignore Waze and go I5N -> 520W -> Montlake Blvd (which then merges into the same place) [2.4mi, 7min]. Almost always after I make the turn, Waze updates the route and my arrival times stays the same (or +/- 1-2 minutes). However, occasionally there will be a problem on 520 that backs up traffic and my alternate route will take me 5-10-30 minutes longer! Because I ignore Waze's suggestion I don't see the problem until it's to late.
My suggestions in that alternate turns are shown in a lighter color under the next turn suggestion.
Current:
[White on Black] Rt 1.2 miles: NE 45th StMy proposal is to leave this the same and add a new line underneath:
[White on Black] Rt 1.2 miles: Exit 169 for NE 45th St
[black on gray?] Rt 0.1 miles: Exit 168B to merge onto WA-520 E toward Bellevue/Kirkland / Alternate route: +2 minutesImplementation (In order of preference)
1 - Waze suggests any "viable" alternative. Viable means that it doesn't suggest you get off the freeway and get right back on at a cost of 2 minutes; and maybe that the alternate route won't add more than X minutes
2 - Waze only suggests alternate routes that were available at the beginning - I'd guess this is doable, but not very helpful for long routes...
3 - Waze only shows my previously defined alternate routes. I initially tell Waze my preferred routes, and it always shows those as alternates. This would work great for commuting where my start and end points are almost always the same, but not so great when I'm out and about and using Waze as a traditional GPS.

Plugins!
Instead of competing against other products and services, why not allow them to be PART OF (feed info into) Waze? Plugins, if you will.
Case in point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOyhnwA6MQo
Escort Live is a social driving program for people who use Passport Radars. Wouldn't it make more sense for everyone ("them" because they'd be able to enjoy Waze and its massive user database, and "us" because we'd get the real-time radar info?) if Escort Live was available inside Waze?
Waze is great because it's so clean, so I understand not wanting to have other data services "clutter up" the experience, so perhaps if a user wasn't "subscribed" to a service, then they wouldn't see the data in that "feed" in the first place.

Indicator on alert for direction
When an alert is displayed on the map, it is generally impossible to tell whether the alert applies to the current direction of travel or the opposite.

parking lot landmarks / traffic analysis
I would like to see certain landmarks not count as traffic analysis. If an area is marked as a restaurant, parking lot, gas station, etc.. the time a waze client spends there should NOT count against traffic analysis. Wazers can't be expecte to turn their nav system on and off just to order a burger, or fill up the tank. In reality, a nav system should be as "hands off" as possible for the daily commute. start waze when you get in the car.. go on your trip, pull over at the gas station and leave waze running. go through the drive through and order lunch.. etc. then when you reach your destination, turn waze off.

navigation list
bring back the navigation list. WAZE is good but occasionally makes mistakes and support and be able to know where you are being led. I would suggest the list pop-up when you touch the bar of the current next turn.

Add north south west east direction when reporting from iPhone
Add preset when reporting anything to waze via iPhone to show which direction drivers will see the report. Accident. Police etc. This also should show in the text description of the report. Same lane or other can help and this may show on the map. But it's hard to tell exactly what lane it's in. Ie, car stopped on shoulder may look on map like it's northbound lane when it's really south. Add direction of travel preset similar to same lane button.
