Tell Wazers to form a rescue alley in a traffic jam
When you are in a traffic jam you have to form a rescue alley (in germany and many other countries). But nobody is doing so. That's making it hard for the ambulance to reach the injured people.
Please tell the wazers to form a rescue alley when waze recognizes a traffic jam.

Add "Top Tier" as a preferred station choice
"Top Tier" gasoline (Shell, BP, Mobil, etc.) is recommended by both AAA and Consumer Reports as improving the cleanliness of a car's engine and is better for the environment.
Please make a preferred gas station option that shows all nearby Top Tier-certified fuel stations for those of us that want to take the best care of our engines (and the environment)!

Tunnel Navigation bluetooth OBDII
Typically GPS signal is lost in long tunnels. Why not include a waze connection to a bluetooth enabled OBDII device in your car to give accurate speed. The direction is immaterial as the tunnel path is well known.The devices are cheap about $5 to $20 on ebay. Waze would benefit by knowing speed through tunnels. Yes, beacons are good, but not if they are sparsely placed.

Sharing anonymized GPS data
This message concerned potential ConnectedCitizens partners. Uber just allow sharing their GPS anonymized data : https://movement.uber.com/cities . I think Waze should look into that possibility for ConnectedCitizens partners as this data has great interest for different transportation planning purposes. It could allow analyzing weaving highway section or origin-destination major interchange movements. Thanks for considering this possibility.

you need to add a map button on the map to enable or disable freeway routing. often, a freeway will not be my best route, this would help
an onscreen button is needed to change from freeways to avoid freeways. Often, I would like to change enroute from freeway to surface roads and it takes many steps to do so. one button to change on or off onscreen would be a big help

Add arrive button
Sometimes when arriving at very large places, Waze thinks that you arrive only when you are in the front door of the place. Think for example in a mall, the parking lot will be huge, but Waze already traced the route until the front door.
An "arrive" button will help Waze to understand that you are already at your destination and there is no need to recalculate the route while you are looking for a parking spot9 votes -

Speed limit/autovelox notification when screen off
It would be great to have a speed limit notification and autovelox with a big pop up (like the speed limit signal 50 km/h) even when the screen is off. Often when the smartphone is connected with bluetooth I cannot hear the speed limit alarm. I'll be always aware of the speed limit and autovelox on my route saving battery!

Offer way for users to edit/correct/identify false reports OR...
Have a way for users to contest a traffic notice entered by other users. Here in Los Angeles we use a lot of residential streets, especially to get through the canyons. Lately, residents on smaller streets have been adding fake/erroneous notices such as hazards (e.g., construction) or road closures to try to get drivers to take other routes. It would be great if Waze had one of three options: users can delete false reports, users can comment on reports for all users to see (not just the person who reported the issue), or a thumbs down feature so that other…

Message a license plate
Hi there. How about if users register their license plates and so we could send "car-to-car" messages?! I see lights left turned on, open cars in parking lots, broken lights etc and with a feature like that I could tell the owner by "messaging his/her car", regardless any other info. Nice, huh?!

Traffic green light forecaster
How accurately waze could be able to forecast green lights?
When a wazer gets a green light, she will start moving. If this information is collected from several wazers, would it be enought to gather the traffic light interval and after that forecast next turn-to-green moment?If this is possible, the next wazer could be given information if she need to accelerate or decelerate to arrive on greens. Following theses advices, she could get a green wave throught any wazer-populated city ;-)

Alert No Longer There
I might have missed the feature -if it exists- to report that an Alert is no longer where it is reported. This would be police, accidents, obstacles, etc. On the other hand, the app may have some way to statistically do that; ie if there have been no "thumbs up" for a period of time, the Alert no longer exists.

Danger level routes
Hi there,
I love Waze and use it everywhere in the world, mainly Africa and South America where traffic can be hectic... But also dangerous.
I would love to have the option in Waze to chose a route depending on how dangerous the area to cross is.9 votes
