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.

How Far Is 1,000 Feet???
Stop using 1,000 feet to describe every single next turn coming up. We don’t know how far that is. Use “three stoplights” or some other descriptor! Please!

Reporting closures
As a police officer I try to use waze to report road closures to assist gps users by rerouting them. Often it's impossible to accurately do this because it won't let you report a closure on a spot you are currently on. App only let's you close the other roads around your location. I've tried temporarily relocating also. Need to make it easier to do this report.

Exit Waze when disconnecting from Apple CarPlay
I love Waze for longer journeys, using it with Apple CarPlay. But I don't need it for popping to the shops - i.e. most daily journeys.
However the App starts up on my phone every time I get in the car regardless, and then continues running even after I get out. It really drains my phone battery. I have to remember to close it manually. I can't find a way to stop this behaviour - it is a real pain.
I'm sure it wasn't always like this, but this means I have had to disable Waze on my CarPlay setup.
I would like to be able to configure Waze so it automatically closes when I disconnect from Apple CarPlay.

U.K. Motorway Variable speed limits
Is there a way that Waze can receive an information feed of the U.K. motorway variable speed limits?
I am sure this must exist and have the ability to be tapped into.
The M25, is a great example, but there are many more motorways across the country, often have variable speed limits posted on signs above the lanes. These can change depending on the operators and in response to incidents or traffic conditions.
It would be incredibly useful to be able to see on the Waze screen what the current limit is, and to know that it is current.7 votes -

Itineraire poids lourds
Excellente application mis à part les itinéraires des véhicules de plus de 3.5 t.
Il serait intéressant d'établir une mise à jour pour les conducteurs routier tout en signalant le meilleur itinéraires, les ponts et éventuellement les tunnels.
En espérant une mise à niveau de l'application, bien à vous.7 votes -
Commercial Navigation
There are a lot of commercial vehicles on the road. I think it would be nice to give the user the ability to input the height and weight of their commercial vehicle including oversized and overheight loads. Editors would include clearance heights when a road level 1 crosses over a Ground level, level 2 over level 1, etc. as well as roadway weight restrictions as displayed on signage (eg: Weight limit 8 tons empty weight) as well as general commercial truck restrictions as displayed on signage. The app can then take this information into account when large commercial vehicle operators request navigation. This can be achieved by adding only a few fields to the map editor for clearance height, truck restriction and weight restriction. Pilot escorts could use these functions to navigate for overheight vehicles.

Plan a drive
I like the plan a drive option. I wish you could add more locations to a plan a drive. Basically make a full trip from start to finish and add all the location you want to stop at.

Audible Alert for Fixed Speed Cameras
Every Sat Nav device that I have ever owned HAS an audible (sound) alert to speed cameras. This is because most drivers keep their eyes on the road most of the time, not on their Sat Nav. I have done some basic programming in the past and know that adding a PING (sound) to something that happens in a software program is the EASIEST thing that a developer could possibly do. So, WHY on earth are Waze developers ignoring this important feature, when so many people ask for it? Just flashing up Speed Camera in words at the bottom of the Waze screen is absolutely useless to a driver, as 9 out of 10 times the driver won't see it. Making it red doesn't help either.
I hope people VOTE for this important audiable feature. Thanks in advance.
