Allow User to Disable Alert for Roadworks
There is currently only an option to "Show on Map" for roadworks.
This also generates the full visual and audio alert which comes on top of everything else.
The only way to stop it is to disable roadworks altogether.
Please add option to choose to have the roadworks on the map, but to not be alerted1 vote -

"alerts only" mode should include rerouting notifications
Currently, there are 3 sound modes, which is great. "On", "Off" and "Alerts Only". I use "On", when I've never been there before and "Alerts Only" during my daily commute. I love the Alerts Only mode for a daily commute. Problem is, sometimes Waze sees an issue ahead during my commute and only makes a screen notification. I'd really want to be alerted about that.
So I'd like "Alerts Only" to consider a rerouting notification as an alert and not 'normal' navigation instructions.

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…

Routes
I’d like to request 2 additional routes besides the existing 3 recommended routes:- 1) The longest route that avoids 50% of overall traffics along its path; while navigating on this route, it’d alert with options when there’s a faster route regardless of distance; options are either to maintain current route or the improved traffic route? 2) The longest route that evades 90% or higher overall traffics along its path; while navigating on this route, it’ll pop up a screen that alerts users of a quicker route regardless of overall distance, which free from zero or negligible traffics,…

Alert ahead fones show dismissal option
When there is an alert of construction, accident, police warning or shows “[incident] ahead in nnn meters” and then you can only push “still there” or “do not exist”… but how one will know if this is ahead!?!? There is no option like “ask me later” or dismiss… it should not ask if this is there BEFORE I pass the incident!

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…

Speed limit change audible alert for 5mph increments
I know a voice alert was added around 2024 for larger speed changes, but many roads especially state and county routes can vary widely and often going from 55 to 25 very quickly and then bumping slowly as you exit a town from 25 to 35 to 45 to 55. To avoid speed traps on entering a town a voice alert would be great for when the speed limits change by increments of 5 mph. Small town love to catch non-locals for speeding!!!

Speed Limit display and Alert Icon quick Selection
Here is an edited screenshot of my two ideas, on the left you have bigger, more visible speed limit indicator, on the right you get a permanently displayed favorite alert icon.(in my case stopped vehicles which is 90% of my sent alerts)

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?

Speed alert for 2 mph over limit
Currently, you can select an alert if you are going above the speed limit (at all) or 5 mph over the limit.
I would like to suggest 2 mph.
5 mph is too much because by then, a cop will almost surely give a ticket without mercy. 5 mph over the limit is usually the informal grace limit.
But an alert for any mph over the limit is too sensitive. Even on cruise control, my car sometimes exceeds the limit by a fraction of a mph when I begin to go downhill. It takes a second for the cruise control…

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.

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
