  2. Be able to mark passing places in country lanes like you can potholes.

    When going down narrow country lanes wide enough for one car it would be great be able to mark passing places like you can pot holes. So many times you meet another car and wonder where the next passing place is.

  5. Navigation option to avoid Drawbridges

    Would like a Navigation option to avoid Drawbridges. All Drawbridge roadway portions in my section of the country are grided metal and you can see straight through them to the water. It's a terrifying phobia for me. I would happily take a longer route when at all possible to avoid a Drawbridge.

  6. Stacked Lane Guidance

    Ability to map "stacked" lane guidance.

    A stacked lane is one where you have one lane turning into two. An example I have is here in Calgary AB Canada, we have a rail underpass that you make a right turn onto, but there is a median between the two lanes (its a one-way) and you need to be is the farthest lane access the left turn at the other side of the rail underpass.

    And right now, we don't have the ability to show that the first right lane is "stacked lanes"

    Examples:

  8. Let Users Identify Faster Moving Lanes

    Many times I am in traffic and one lane is moving faster than another. I would like to be able to alert other Waze users to this saving them time

  9. Put the avoid freeways option on the route page. Stop hiding it.

    Avoid Freeways option needs to be moved to the routes page. Make it as easy for us to change as the avoid tolls is.

    Right now you have it buried and it takes a few clicks to get to it. And we all know that Waze does not give alternative routes UNLESS Avoid Freeways is turn off.

  10. S-Turn penalties

    In case of traffic even light, some ways become impossible to cross, mainly ave. with more than 3 or 4 lanes.
    Proposal to include a S-Turn routing penalties in case of traffic in the crossing street.
    This will avoid routing in ways with less than 200m (safe length for lane change is S-Turn even with traffic).

  12. Option to turn off toll roads for this drive only

    It would be beneficial to have an option to turn off toll roads for this drive only. The alternative is to go into settings and turn off.any times I forget to turn it back on. We live in an area of the country where we tend to use toll roads during certain times of the days. The tolls are very high so during non peak hours would like to use alternate route without toll even if it’s a bit more miles

  13. A driver in the express lane without a transponder configured receives a notification that a transponder is required

    If Waze detects that a driver is in the express lane but the driver does not have a transponder configured in the app, provide an alert telling the driver a transponder is required.
    Alternatively, let a driver know at the start of a drive that a given route could be faster if they had an ezpass transponder configured.

  14. make the tolls appear by flashing the toll

    Good evening. You have recently modified Waze by clearly showing the passages for trains. Could you do the same to make the tolls appear by flashing the toll? Best regards. F. LEZZI

    Bonsoir. Vous avez récemment modifié Waze en faisant apparaître les passages pour les trains de façon claire. Pourriez-vous faire la même chose pour que les péages apparaissent en faisant clignoter le péage ? Cordialement. F. LEZZI

  16. Add "avoid freeways" to the quick navigation options that currently shows options to avoid ferries and tools.

    Sometimes I prefer to take back roads on my commute when traffic is bad. The quick toggle includes ferries and tolls. Please consider adding the option to avoid freeways to this.

  17. Set optional the view of toll price information

    Toll price display should be optional.
    Translation in other languages such as Italian has longer word ("pedaggio"), and this causes text to be cut and not completely displayed

  18. Route info for drivers eligible for the Commute (HOV) lane.

    When giving route info do you take into consideration wether commuters are eligible to use the commute (HOV) lane. Some commute lanes require 2 or 3 persons per vehicle. We were traveling form Palm Springs to Redwood City, California, and were diverted to an alternate route because of traffic conditions. We were not sure if the commute lanes
    were also full.

    Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

  19. Add checkbox to opt for dirty road/toll before chosing a destination.

    After selection the destination, we should be able to select if we want to take toll roads or dirty roads. It will be very helpfull. Its a pain changing it in the menu 3/4 times a day. or I will never know the real best route for me!!!
