Customized alert distances
Since the recent release of changing the alert to 0.2 miles, makes police alerts a worthless feature because at highway speeds, at that distance, it's already too late. In fact, anything over 25mph would be too late at that point. How about a setting that allows the user to set that distance in the range 0.2 to 1 mile to make it more practical or just revert to the 0.5-mile default that was present before the latest release!

Improve usability for EV drivers
Please add more EV friendly information. Have no option to choose EV as fuel type and doesn't show charging stations. Since buying my car, I've actually found Google Maps a far better option but do miss the community reporting of Waze as its not as good in Google Maps

Push the start date limit for road closures an extra month in the future
Right now, map editors can place road closures at most one year in advance. When an event ends, they often announce next year's date. It would be handy if we could add those closures at that point, even if the event will take place like a weekend later next year. Now, we often have to set a reminder to add these next week or so. Therefore, I'd like to propose this limit gets pushed one extra month in the future, making the limit 12+1 months. It might be best to adjust this limit for some other related things, such as traffic events, as well.

50cc 45km/h Scooter navigation
I’d love to have a scooter navigation, that knows what the traffic situation looks like and that gives you the exact route. I live in the Netherlands and 45km/h scooters often need to switch between de cycling lane and the car lane, so it would be nice if the navigation would give you the exact route including when you need to switch from one lane to the other. First try this for the Netherlands as we drive a load of scooters and cycle a lot, and because of this, our traffic signs are good to follow which makes it easier to follow the rules and also easier to make this a real in app feature

- When I am driving to a destination in another time zone, please show the ETA of that time Zone. (2) When I driving along Interstate highways, and am looking for a Coffee or eating place along the Route, it is usually looking ahead. I don't want to drive back 20 miles to have a coffee. I am looking for a Coffee stop ahead. (3) Show rest stops as most other apps do. (4) Show Traffic Lights and gas stations

Outdated Waze map design -> Chances for a redesign?
The Waze map design is now quite outdated and seems very retro, out of date. There are no 3D buildings, poor resolution on large car screens, etc.
Will there ever be a redesign of the Waze map, see e.g. Google Maps 3D buildings in navigation.

Australian School Zones (40kmh) Alert
In Australia we have School Zones around all schools to ensure the safety of children around schools. In the majority of the Australian states this is a set period of Monday to Friday 8:00am to 9:30am and 2:30pm to 4:00pm. It would be great to create an alert of some sort, during these times and turn off the alert outside these times. Thank You

Making state lines more distinguishable.
It looks this idea, or similar ideas have been suggested. I've read that Google maps have something like this already in place. Why has this not been done yet? Do I need to use Google Maps instead? I'd rather continue using Waze because it's what I'm use to, but for this I'm willing to switch. Please do something about making the state lines more distinguishable, &/or announcing when you're entering a new state, like other suggestions that have already been made.

Vehicle Information and Maintenance Notifications
I would like to propose adding a feature that allows users to set and manage vehicle information, along with receiving notifications for the following:
1. Car Insurance Expiration: Reminders when the insurance is about to expire, so users can renew it on time. 2. Vehicle Inspection Validity: Notifications before the scheduled inspection date, ensuring compliance with legal requirements. 3. Oil Change and Maintenance: Alerts based on mileage to remind users when it’s time to change the oil or perform other essential maintenance tasks after driving a specified distance.This feature would greatly enhance user convenience and help in maintaining the vehicle in optimal condition.

Option to disable construction alerts; they are distracting
Several people have posted this. It is not being responded to. PLEASE listen to us! When driving, a construction alert pops up. There is NO option in settings to turn off construction alerts (only to hide from map). The alert is persistent until I pass the zone, which means ETA is not visible. The alert cannot be cleared until I pass the zone. It's a horrible experience, and the only way to clear it is to say "Not there" which is not true. Please listen to the users begging for this. Every other setting has the option to turn off the aggressive alert, except construction. It's making Waze mostly useless. When I'm driving through a construction zone every day, I KNOW there's construction, and I do not need a persistent alert telling me. I DO however, need to see my ETA always.
