Waze RoadTrip- A New Option for Wazers
You will likely want to hear an idea that will expand your audience and retain your current customer base.
Recently, I embarked on an excursion from Orlando, FL to Charleston, SC. It’s a fairly short road trip, but within those 6 hours, I wondered to myself how great it would be to see more than just the highway in front of me and the trees that lined the road. I quickly grew exhausted from seeing the same paved road, white lines, and billboard signs over and over again.
I turned to my boyfriend with two hours left on our trip…

Adding report options "Oil Trace" and "Lane Closed" for Germany
I've seen that in Hungary there's the option to report at least a Closed Lane. This is also relevant for Germany. For example a closed lane on a relatively well known route of a driver could be dangerous. He's expecting a certain amount of lanes but doesn't know the newest conditions on road.
So please enable this option for drivers in Germany.The "Oil Trace" report could be helpful as well. Often such reports are mentioned in the radio. It would be a step forward to more safety in Germany and the rest of the world to add this kind…

Report (10min) Queue:
Report (10min) Queue: If I report a traffic issue and I happen to be in a data dead zone due to powerlines or carrier issue, I get the Oh Oh display. If my report is queued for up to 10mins before expiration, I may pass out of the issue area and still get the report in. Right now the report is just lost.

ALTERNATIVA AO AVISO DE RADAR
Já que é proibido informar posição de radares, poderiam incluir avisos para zonas monitoradas de trafego, com alguns metros antes e depois. Esta zona monitorada não avisa o radar no ponto especifico mas avisa um area para ter mais cuidado.

Timing for Alert
Please kindly bring back timing for alert to auto disappear after the driver have passed the affected area. for the current version affecting most AA user, driver have to manually choose there or not there. having to remove the attention on the road to the screen while driving at 100km/h is extremely dangerous, especially just to choose there or not there option. if driver didn't make the choice, the alert will stuck on the screen for the rest of the drive, and no further alert will be given. using Samsung Galaxy 21 Ultra.

Next action on directions
Right now, depending on the what the next action is, the upper left corner overlay can be four or five lines, obscuring the map underneath. My suggestion is that overlay is collapsed to the the first line (i.e, 'right turn, 5.6 mi) until you get close, say two miles, when the rest of the information would be displayed.

CarPlay directions box option to hide?
Firstly might be useful to a CarPlay area in drop down box above?
As you can have directions listed on your iPhone whilst using CarPlay / you might know the basic route it would be great to be able to optionally hide the Directions box as it takes so much map real estate. Or maybe move to top left. It always seems top right is where I am going....

Always choose WME items over Google Map items
A place (area or point or residential) or House number entered into Waze Map Editor should ALWYS be chosen over a Google Maps import in Waze’s Search.
This is very frustrating to users since they are often routed to the wrong location. It is also very frustrating to editors since their work to update the map is ignored.
…If a person searches 123 Main St, City, State, then their search should show the 123 Main St, City, State (From WME) as the first item and not 123 Main Street, City State from Google Maps. (With 133 Main Street, City,12 votes -
Either allow users to disable popup notifications, or reduce the amount of screen real-estate used to display it
Popups for slow-downs in traffic, traffic cameras, etc may be useful, but why not condense the information into a smaller area which doesnt obstruct ones view of the route. Secondly, why do I need to see the same notification repeatedly when I've already acknowledged it for the first time?

Visualize BEST TIME TO LEAVE for a given destination (red to green). Save time if you know the peaks.
Problem
You know where to go, but want to know what would be the best time to leave to avoid peak traffic.
At the moment you a ETA, which is nice to know but doesn't help you to plan.Idea
You plan a route, get an ETA and a option to choose the best time for leaving. Could be a color coded (green to red) 24h hour-by-hour "forecast" of expected travel time (graph or simple list). This could include current traffic situation for the next few hours, averages for the rest. Also the next 2 hours could be split…25 votes -

Give us accurate results. I don't want every store in the area if i type specific names. Follow me in deleting the app Again. I don't want to individually select and zoom out of every inaccurate result highlighted that isn't matching the name. Find your money grabbing ways from third parties that doesn't effect using the app correctly or forget the apps failures altogether

unsafe streets
It would be very helpful to know if you are entering to a dangerous area meaning like a ghetto or some place where is dangerous to be driving at certain time or know that you can get assaulted by knowing this you can change route to a safer one.
Sometimes you get into streets that are very dangerous for saving some minutes on your route.
Being able to report dangerous areas would be great and safer for driving.
I know a lot of people talking about this on the city as an issue of waze.
Not knowing where you…10 votes -
Áreas de Perigo
Saudações! Creio que áreas perigosas, como favelas e outras areas de risco, como ocorre no Rio de Janeiro e outras grandes deveriam ser demarcadas e contornáveis, conforme desejo do usuário. E as áreas de risco também deveriam ser sempre alteradas aos usuários.

police reports
Hi, I would like to make a suggestion for us waizers that will be very helpful. Perhaps you can add a choice to click on police report that is in the screen so that we just press on it instead of going to Reports then choosing police and then sending it. Please take in consideration that we are driving and most Likely can't stop and enter report and that by the time we enter the report we are ways further from the area we saw the police. I think everyone will benefit from this easy way to report and we…

Reporting Feature / Report Editing
The ability to create or move an item you reported, e.g. police, accident, etc. after the fact.
Sometimes you happen upon an accident scene so suddenly you do not think immediately of reporting it on Waze. And it won't help to report it 1 km further. So I would like to be able to add the event and select the precise location after I left the area already. And the ability to drag the icon to a more precise location if I reported it a tad too late.
Also, if I am driving alone without a passenger to click the…

Separate toggles for Toll Bridges and Express Lanes
Please add an option to avoid Express Lanes while still using Toll Bridges.
The HOV lanes in my area are being converted to Express Lanes that charge excessive tolls (closing in on $10) to use them. I refuse to drive in them. However, it's necessary for me to cross toll bridges to get to work (avoiding them will add an hour to my commute). If I tell Waze to avoid tolls, I avoid the Express Lanes AND the Toll Bridges, which is terrible.
Separating the 'Toll' toggle into 'Toll Bridges' and 'Express Lanes' would be very helpful.15 votes -
Alertar os usuários em áreas rodoviárias de uso do farol baixo obrigatório, conforme mudança na legislação
O presidente interino Michel Temer sancionou a lei que torna obrigatório rodar em estradas com os faróis acesos mesmo durante o dia. A mudança no Código Brasileiro de Trânsito (CTB) foi publicada no Diário Oficial da União desta terça-feira (24) e, segundo o Ministério das Cidades, as multas podem ser aplicadas somente depois de 45 dias da publicação, que é o prazo para os cidadãos se adaptarem a novas regras.

Don´t take for the average the motorcycle speed
In all the countries, are motorcycles drivers using waze, when there´s a lot of traffic, they go faster than the cars, I was thinking that the speed of the motorcycles don´t matter, for this important reason it doesn´t have to upload the speed to the waze servers.
When we open the app, it could be a question: are you usen a motorcycle? or a car?, or it could be a setting too.
The information that is upload for the motorcycle drivers are impacting to the ETA of the rest of the drivers!!!!!!!!!
