HOV Lane Exit Notifications at Every HOV exit
When using a route with an HOV Lane, Waze defaults to telling the driver to exit the HOV Lane at every HOV Lane Exit on the route, even though the HOV Lane is available on the entire route.
The driver should only be alerted to exit the HOV Lane if it's the exit they need to take because there is no HOV off-ramp, or there is an issue in the HOV Lane ahead of them.The exit notifications have caused me to miss a freeway transition roads since Waze doesn't want anyone using the HOV Lanes.
An example, Waze will tell you to exit the carpool lane 1 mile ahead, yet in 1.5 miles there is an HOV Lane Transition Ramp to change freeways for the routing, you miss the HOV Transition Ramp because you exited the HOV Lane when you should not have exited. To get back into the HOV Lane is not legal, you have to cross double yellow/white lines to get back into the HOV lane, which leaves 2 options, try and cut across 4-5 lanes of freeway traffic, or keep going on a route Waze didn't want you to take.When using a route with an HOV Lane, Waze defaults to telling the driver to exit the HOV Lane at every HOV Lane Exit on the route, even though the HOV Lane is available on the entire route.

Please make the 'next road' number bigger. The icon is too small to read safely while driving.
Please make the 'next road' number bigger. It's a big image with a small font. Knowing where I am going next is vital but the font is too smaller. Either make it bigger by default or let me choose to make it bigger.

Road closures
I'm a traffic flagger for a utility company. When I need to close a road, i can't do it unless I'm at the nearest intersection. How do I do this without being at that intersection, which may be a long distance from my work site.
Also, how can I open a road I've closed? Seems the next wazer has to open it; that's mot fair to other drivers. How can I open a road ive closed?6 votes -

Stoplights on map
You need to have stoplights on the map when. Giving directions. I know Apple Maps has it. It helps when coming to a turn but there is a light before it. It’s more precise.

Hi, we love using the Waze app for travelling where ever we are.
However it would be great if there was a setting for avoiding minor roads or entering the size of vehicle. We occasionally tow a 7.5m caravan and last week when Waze re directed us due to heavy traffic we found ourselves in very narrow lanes with the caravan in tow - very stressful. A warning stating route unsuitable for large vehicles might even suffice?
Please can you consider this as an update.
Many thanks

Avoid traffic jams.
I often travel with 3 kids on long road trips. Always rather be moving than standing in place with screaming kids and I am SURE a lot of people would agree. I recently had a trip take 10+ hours instead of the original 7 because of completely predictable and avoidable traffic jams on highways. Clearly not there in the middle of the night when I depart but jams there every day since they are because of ongoing construction work on a lane. I kind of assumed waze already tried to help you avoid these but I guess I was wrong. Ran into 4 of them.
I need a setting to avoid jams appearing on my route with 2 extra parameters: max acceptable length of of a traffic jam (in minutes) and max percentage of remaining trip length added as a consequence of choosing an alternative route.
This could be via a notification showing you the jam estimated length and the cost of reroute.
Ex:
I enable the feature and chose a 10 minute max jam time and a 15% max time increase.
A notification appears telling me a new jam appeared on my current route. Jam seems 15 minutes long and the alternative route adds 1 hour to my route (10% of my total remaining trip time) and I gladly accept and am rerouted to leave the highway and rather keep moving that waiting in a standstill.I often travel with 3 kids on long road trips.

Aviso Radar fijo
Cuando te aproximas a un radar fijo, Waze sólo te avisa por voz (en el mapa siempre aparece) del radar si en ek momento que tiene que dar la alerta estás circulando a más velocidad de la permitida.
Puede darse el caso de que circules a menos velocidad, entonces el aviso no suene con voz sino solo visualmente en el mapa y en el tramo entre el aviso y el radar aumentes la velocidad y no te haya salido ninguna alerta por voz del radar.
Debería avisar por voz siempre, aunque circules por debajo del límite, salvo que lo desactives en el menú.

Saved places on web interface or import
It would be great to have a way to add/edit saved places from the web interface or to have some form of importing them.
In case you have to add/edit more places, it’s easier with an actual keyboard and a big screen instead of the phone screen.6 votes -

Vitesse utilisée inférieure au 130km/h
Bonjour, sur autoroute, je roule à une vitesse plus basse que la vitesse maxi (115 ou 120 km/h). Serait il possible d'indiquer une autre vitesse max pour que le temps de trajet soit juste ?

Add stop along route
It would be nice to be able to use Google Assistant hands free to ask Waze to find a stop along your route like Google Maps does. Right now, if you ask it to find something while you're on a trip, it will just do a generic search that may have results in the opposite direction. On Google Maps, it gives you a list truly along your route and tells you how many minutes it will add to your overall trip. That would be lovely on Waze, please.
