Awards for People for Driving the Speed Limit
Many people drive above the speed limit and we've all got a speeding ticket at one time, but wouldn't it be cool to get rewarded when we do drive at or near the speed limit? Maybe waze can create a feature to award points based on how much time or mileage that we are compliant to the posted speed limit. And maybe even leverage companies like Starbucks to award good drivers with a coffee! It is especially critical that drivers obey the limit on residential streets, and maybe this could motivate and educate drivers to do so!!

Make the top choice on the main 'Drive To' screen be your last chosen location.
Whether it's because I cancelled navigation or, much more likely, the server erred out when routing, I constantly need to choose the same location as the last one I chose. If it was three or four pages down on my 'Saved Locations' page this can be quite a hassle—and a bit dangerous—to do while driving.
I'd propose that when you press the 'Drive To' button the top choice on the list is whatever the last location chosen was until that destination is reached.

Add Driving Cops
When cops are driving, you can add driving cop which would make a cop drive on waze at the speed limit of the freeway. If the driving cop is around wazzers, the wazzers can confirm if the driving cop is near by and calibrate where the driving cop is helping out other wazzers.

YOU have a problem with a street in Rock Hill, SC. A friend lives at 2099 Cardinal Hill Drive. You have the street as Cardinal Hill Circle
CORRECT THE STREET NAME FROM CARDINAL HILL CIRCLE TO CARDINAL HILL DRIVE THAT IS OFF EASTVIEW RD IN THE WESTERN PART OF ROCK HILL NOT FAR FROM YORK PREP ACADEMY.

The pervious version was better as it automatically started the drive with a count down. Now I have to confirm the route every time I start
Also one cannot easily schedule the drive for later as before. Now one has to go through some planning workflow. The planned drives does not include the planning of ferries schedules.

Automatically re-open closed roads when vehicles drive there again
Roadworks sometimes finish earlier than expected. When waze sees enough vehicles driving along a "closed" road, the closure should automatically be removed. Or at least flag the road for the local AM to check.

Option to disable route recalculating alert. That nerve wracking chirp is driving me crazy!
Whoever approved that grating & obnoxious squawking route recalculation alarm should be fired. I drive a cab and even my customers cringe when they hear it and say "what's that awful noise". PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET US TURN IT OFF! Alerts only should mean alerts only. Hearing that damn noise screech and grate 5 times when I'm driving through a parking lot is maddening!

Planned drives added to history
I would love it if my planned drives could be added to my driving history. Once the planned drive is complete, there is no record of it in my driving history. I have to input the address all over agin instead of being able to click on it from my history.

Account for (sporting, concert) events along the route when calculating ETA for planned drives
If you need to be somewhere at a certain time, but there is a sporting event along the way, there will be a lot of event traffic just before & just after the event. Waze could account for this traffic when calculating a planned drive. Then, based on historic data for such an event, Waze could either plan a route that avoids the traffic or it could show the ETA so you could drive past the venue during the event. Alternatively, you could know how early before or how late after the event you should leave to avoid the…

Add "virtual friends" with his nickname
Sometimes we meet cool people on the waze forum but we prefer not to exchange Facebook account, phone numbers.
It would be cool to add them to share bip bip, message, classification and to compete with.
With the last upgraded there was phone numbers, Facebook account but I think there is a lack of that!4 votes -
Allow the ability to add and see friends on the map. This would be perfect for car cruises, since we are utilizing other apps to do this
I go on a lot of car cruises and we use other third-party apps in order to see our friends live on the map. These apps are very limited and don't offer the display of police speed traps like Waze does, so it would be perfect if we could see our friends on Waze to create a safer cruising experience

Report dangerous driving
Would be super Helpful having an icon to report DANGEROUS DRIVING on Brazilian maps. Too many drivers do not drive safely and overpass de speed limit letting others drivers in danger.
Would be SUPER if Waze could add this service for thee good of all carefully drivers.
Thank you.7 votes -
Follow my drive web map should show alerts too
During Follow my Drive, your alerts and comments should be broadcasted too. Many times you're driving ahead of a group, and they want to know how the road conditions are. If your alerts appeared on the FMD web, they could see what you're reporting.
Maybe simply use the real time waze map instead of a blank map, so you can see alerts. Don't forget to include the feature for world.waze.com too and not just for the regular US waze.

The WP app needs to be updated. Make functional: additional voices, Facebook/friends feature, landscape view.
The app is great on other devices, but is in need of refinement on WP 8.1. The app does not properly download additional guidance voices (on Terry Crews it stayed at 0 percent for weeks), the social/friends link just goes back to the main Waze screen, the app is locked in vertical position--which is not optimal; and the gas feature (including reporting) doesn't work at all. Ideally, this app should mirror the other devices in terms of functionality--it would be heads and shoulders above the default "Here" app.

Share the best way to come to your place with your waze friends
You want your friends to join you, and there's a specific way you want to point. That would be great to suggest a route to you (not to a meeting point) and specify the route (using waypoints)

Make list of "suggested eta recipients" editable
Every time I go anywhere using Waze it "helpfully" pops up a picture of ONE person: my ex (and the option to add others). The only person I've ever sent an eta to is my ex, so I guess I'm just doomed to see their contact pic every time I drive?
Even though I've gotten rid of all my Waze friends (why would I need to know when my friend halfway across the country is driving? That's just annoying), and even though I've completely un-synced my contacts (stopped using "send eta" when the resulting info was fairly useless (ex…
