Closed road segment indicator
Due to road reconstruction, since the 16th of August and until , at least, the 22nd of December, the "rue nationale" in Charenton-du-Cher (France) is totally closed to both way traffic between, at the west, the crossroad with "rue neuve" and, at the east, the crossroad with "D41e".
Alternate local trafic is possible for light vehicles by "rue neuve" and "D41e".
Trucks trafic, totally forbiden through Charenton-du-Cher, has to follow signs to alternate routes.
The Android Apps doesnt allow to indicate a closed road "long segment" which in this case would be very usefull !

Vehicle type restricred highway alert
PLEASE...When a route includes a restricted road, like the Merritt Parkway, pop up a flash screen that advises no trucks busses or trailers are permitted on the roadway and require acknowledgement. Illegal vehicles are being routed into these road because users either don't care or don't know how to set up their waze.

I suggest that Waze upgrade its navigation system to differentiate user vehicle.
I suggest that Waze upgrade its navigation system to differentiate between local car users, motorcycle riders, and commercial vehicles. By assigning suitable routes for each type of vehicle, daily commuting can be more efficient. Additionally, dedicated routes for commercial vehicles such as trucks and buses should be provided to ensure they travel on roads that are most relevant and suitable for them. Thank you.

Add Alert for Roadside Assistance Vehicles (Australia)
I’d like to suggest adding a specific alert or hazard option for stationary roadside assistance vehicles in Australia (e.g. RAA, tow trucks). A new rule in South Australia—and soon other states—requires drivers to slow down to 25 km/h when passing these vehicles displaying flashing amber lights.
Including a reportable category or automatic alert would help increase compliance, improve safety for roadside workers, and align with local road laws.

Residential cut through traffic
Anchorage, Kentucky 40223: Routing from Evergreen Road north to Ridge Road or SR146 takes Waze users down Log Cabin Lane or Woodland Road to Glenbrook Road to avoid the intersection at Evergreen and SR 146. These streets are residential with no businesses, churches, or other stops for non-residents. Traffic has increased dramatically, including trucks. Pedestrians, children and pets are at great risk of injury or death just to save a couple of minutes. Please change this routing

ALERTA PARA FAIXA DUPLA/TRIPLA NA BR -- ALERT FOR DOUBLE/TRIPLE BAND IN BR
Gostaria de sugerir que o aplicativo informe no mapa quando o carro estiver próximo de uma faixa dupla/tripla na BR. Esta função pode evitar ultrapassagens desnecessárias na BR quando o usuário do aplicativo estiver viajando. Diversas vezes quando viajo, vejo motoristas desesperados para ultrapassarem caminhões, principalmente à noite. E em algumas destas vezes, poucos metros depois nos deparamos com a faixa dupla/tripla na estrada, o que torna a ultrapassagem desnecessária naquele momento. Dessa forma, fica a minha sugestão para inserir um aviso, do mesmo modo que ocorre com as sinalizações de radar nas estradas. Desde já, agradeço.
I would suggest…

Define better routes based on vehicle type
EN
Good afternoon, how are you?First I would like to congratulate everyone for the excellent solution, what a fantastic technology built that allows the WAZE APP to bring countless benefits to all types of drivers.
But you know that the more technology to make life easier, the dumber the users become and because of this I realize that in the day to day traffic, many people without proper experience doing a lot of shaving and because of that, I would like to suggest some improvements to the solution/technology.
Problem: I currently live in a historic city where many of…

Optimize/Differentiate routes between cars and motorcycles
Not all Waze users are power users or tech literate (as well as I who, after a year, only saw that there is Vehicle Details setting and you could choose Vehicle type). Please let new users set their vehicle type as they use the app. I understand that there are people who switch between car and motorcycle, but this will at least let you optimize the routes knowing they’re for cars or motorcycles. I experienced a lot of dead ends only because the path is only for motorcycle size; and nearly crossed uncrossable roads being for 4x4s or trucks…

A Couple of ideas
I live in Maryland and would like to make a couple of suggestions. First, Maryland has a new law where you are supposed to pull over for any vehicles now, not just Police, Emergency and Tow trucks. Can you modify the program so it would display which side of the road the vehicle is on so I could possibly move over ahead of time. Secondly, can you add a simple button for vehicle on the left side of the road, on the right side and for a police car.. I don't like going through all of the buttons to…

Second and third lane early warnings
Second and third lane early warnings. Through many of my travels in south america i often have to pass busses, trucks or slow cars. Many times i had to pass them on a straight with high visibility, but sometimes i had to pass or a short straight. Many of those times i'd just pass them and a second or third lane would open after a hill or very short time. All of those times that this happened, i always had the same thought "i wish Waze had an early warning of a second and third lane for passing heavy…

BEACON FUNCTIONS
Create a new menu with several options for the beacon function: pedestrian walking along the road, cyclist, slow heavy vehicle, or stopped car. Currently, this option does not exist.
When a vehicle stops, it could be beaconed and detected by other vehicles, without the need for the driver who sees it to manually navigate the Waze menu to report it — making it much safer.
Another option would be for cyclists or pedestrians to beacon themselves, so that other vehicles would receive a warning signal when approaching a cyclist or pedestrian who is moving at a slower speed and could…

A couple of suggestions
Hello,
Recently, the application has been frequently unresponsive to touches. This is not a phone error.
It would be helpful if a long press could be used to select a segment on the route that I do not want to take, so that the application can calculate an alternate route. It would also be great if I could create a blacklist of segments that I don't want/can't drive on.
Why can't buildings be displayed on the map for better orientation, or at least their numbers, even if only within, say, 200m of the destination?
It would also be great if…

A feature that allows drivers to get help quickly if they break down in a tunnel with Waze beacons installed
When you enter a tunnel, and the Waze app senses this, it will put another icon on the screen, such as a red triangle with an exclamation mark, the same as your vehicles hazard light button.
If you get into trouble, you tap this button, and it brings up a screen that gives the tunnel operator's name and phone number (button), along with the direction of travel and exact location, e.g., nearest road marker on the wall. This information would be critical for quickly getting CCTV vision, lane closure lights, and dispatch of tow trucks.
It could also tell…
