Change colour of car on “Vehicle on Shoulder” alert icon
When submitting a report and looking at the possible report types while driving. From the corner of one’s eye the “Vehicle on shoulder” alert icon and “Object” icons are very similar.
I suggest the colour of the vehicle in the “vehicle on shoulder” icon be changed to a different distinct colour that also accounts for colourblind people.
If the vehicle was blue or green for example it would be easier to quickly tell the icons apart. Otherwise I feel like I need to distract myself from driving to double check the description next to the icons before confirming the report.

CRUZ ALERT - Demand notice to restaurants, clubs and etc.
My name is Erasmo Cruz (erasmo321@hotmail.com) - Brazil
My idea is great.
You should create a service that alerts companies, bars, restaurants, clubs, live events based on WAZE.
Imagine every time the user puts the address of a restaurant, the restaurant is alerted.With this warning he could anticipate the demand, set up more tables, buy drinks and even reinforce his staff.
Imagine a ballad being able to know in advance that 300 people put their address and that they will arrive in 30 minutes.
Imagine the value of these alerts/service.
I ask you to…

Allow the "Stacking" of alerts on the display
As an example, you are driving along and an alert for the police ahead pops up. You continue on but before you reach the place where the police are supposed to be where you can confirm the presence or advise them not present another alert of some other kind pops up. Now you cannot comment on the first alert. The alerts should stack so the closest one is displayed at the top of the stack

Alert of traffic jam to avoid colision
Hello,
Trafic jam must be report as a danger. We need that the voice warn us to slow down before.
Right now the only way to avoid colision is to look at the screen of our phone to see if there a trafic jam. On highway it’s realy dangerous.Thanks

Before a turn, add to the meter information the word: “turn on the coming turn”. It’s much easier than to try to asstimate the distance.

Add alert capability to post for Police to include those that are 'rolling' and in which direction . . .
When posting an alert where Police are involved, there isn't an option to note whether they are moving in traffic and if they are rolling with you or in the opposite direction. I feel that would/should be a natural choice to be able to make while reporting, to benefit other 'Wazers' operating near you. That's what it's for, right?

Option to set size for alert bubbles
Make an option to select which alert bubbles you want to see and setting to
make that bubbles big enough to be able to see them without zooming in the map. Now at some
point you can't see what is that little dot on the map because auto-zoom makes bubbles very small at high speed :(1 vote -
Announcements depending on speed
I recommend that Waze adjust the "trigger distance" for pre-alerts when traveling quickly.
For example, currently Waze pre-alerts "In one-tenth of a mile ..." regardless of speed.
If you are driving 60 MPH, you cover the one-tenth of a mile in a mere 6-seconds ... by that time, Waze is already alerting you (AGAIN) that it's time to make the turn.
I'm all for voice alerts ... but when the app gabs for 10-seconds straight because of back-to-back announcements, eh....

Emergency vehicle live intervention alert to clear traffic
Hi Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature that could significantly improve emergency response times and road safety.
When police cars, ambulances, fire trucks, or other emergency vehicles are actively responding to an intervention, they could activate a special “Emergency Mode” within Waze (restricted to verified official vehicles only).
Drivers using Waze nearby would then receive a real-time alert such as: “Emergency vehicle approaching – Please clear the way.”The alert could:
- Notify drivers within a certain radius ahead of the emergency vehicle
- Display a visual warning on the map
- Provide a voice alert encouraging…1 vote -
Not sure if Waze does curves speed alert, that would be nice especially driving on a unfamiliar road at night or in poor visibility.

Hazard Alert - Animal on Road
Could there please be some sort of function within Waze that could give the user the opportunity to report deceased animals along the road so that the competent entities could come and collect them? Or even for pets that were just run down for a vet to come or something? Could it be connected to automatically give the competent entities the location of the animal? It’s a win-win for everyone and it keeps our road safe. Also, for objects on the road, while I’m not sure what entity would be responsible for removing them, somehow also connect to the responsible…

Time Until Turn
Similar to the ETA function, I'd love to see the estimated time (countdown, not time of day) for the next turn by the distance. That can be very helpful as distances aren't as inherent to people as time passage.

UI Problem: Speed camera\police alert covers the speed limit
I was using Waze in horizontal mode last night - the speed limit and my current speed were displayed near the bottom of the screen in the middle horizontally. I noticed that when alerts such as Police ahead or Speed Camera in x feet were displayed the notification box covers key bits of the screen such as your current speed, the speed limit and your precise location.
I think either the UI needs to shift up when the alerts are displayed, or the alert box needs to be constrained to one side of the screen.
I did take…

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…
