Low emission zones avoiding
The same principle as avoiding toll roads.
It is enjoying when Waze plans the way through the London (or any other city with low emission zone) and then you find out you have to drive back and find your way around the zone without any assistance as Waze still thinks you can go through the zone.112 votes -
Waze should suggest different routes including toll roads when you put in desination
when i use waze and put in my desination I take the interstate (toll road) but Waze tells me to turn around and go through town or the city highway. It will not suggest the toll road route until I’m 50ft for the onramp. when I put in my desination Waze should give different routes suggestions and also give alerts on the ETAs and if one of the routes requires tolls, and etc.

There must new route selection with HOV lanes 2+ or 3+ passengers.The warning of speed cams,redlight cams,hidden police radar cars in Waze
In USA the Waze must update a new route selection when there is congestion earlier.Especially Google Maps works very well to avoid any congestion before arrival that point.There must a new selection for HOV lanes 2+ or 3+ passengers in same car with entries to HOV lanes.The warning must be often for Speed cams,redlight cams,hidden police cars.The most important update for the colors are conflicting about traffic congestion.The userface of map must be update similar vs Google Map.I am glad to have Waze ,but the aim must be a better than previous.thanks
1 voteThank 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.

Waze/ Carplay crashes at toll booths in Spain and France
Had Mercedes C300 rental car 2025, driving through Basque country in NE Spain and SW France. Ever since time I passed through a toll booth carplay and waze would crash and it would take some playing around to restart. Does anyone else encounter this issue? Major safety issue getting the app and carplay restarted. I think there may be a frequency from toll booths that disrupts the wireless carplay

Show cost of travel (toll + fuel + maybe parking values).
When choosing a destination and between different paths, toll routes could have the cost of those tolls.
As an additional feature it could calculate fuel cost (having the car/engine information, average speed and total distance).1 voteThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Earlier notice for blocked lanes
Why in the world do we only get .2 miles notice for an upcoming blocked lane? Everything else is half a mile. This is equally important for drivers to know as far in advance as possible.

Calculate total tolls for each route option
Some tolls are very high, others reasonable. Now I can only see if there are tolls or not, but not to decide on a reasonable toll road.
In NY, this can be as much as $13 (George Washington Bridge) and $1.50 (Henry Hudson), for example.

Change Icons for Avoiding Tolls/Highways Etc
Right now, it's weird the way it's setup. The icons say "Avoid Tollls" or "Avoid Highways". When you touch them, they don't change their name but the image will put a line through it. To me, that feels like a double negative and is confusing. I wish it would say Tolls and Highways and when you click on it, then it would change to Avoid Tolls or Avoid Highways.

Avoid parkways or truck route option
Does Waze offer an option for Truck Routes? I travel frequently on Long Island, NY and I have a cargo trailer on my SUV... Waze directs me onto parkways and I can't take parkways with the trailer.
Also, it would be wonderful if, when approaching your destination, Waze would tell you if it was on the right or left side of the street.32 votes -
Colour code the best lane options for upcoming turns
It would be fantastic if the lanes could be colour coded for upcoming turns to get you into the best lane possible. Example is if you are a long way from the turn, have all the lanes in Green. Then as you get closer to the intersection, colour the lanes next to your optimal turning lane in Orange and all other lanes in Red. This would then encourage you to get into the correct lane in preparation for your turn well in advance. This would help when you are in heavily congested traffic, multilane highways or in higher speed zones.

Request to Relocate "Avoid" Button for Easier Access in Navigation Interface
I suggest moving the "Avoid" button closer to the "Go" button for easier access at a glance. I often miss toggling the "avoid tolls" option before starting my trip because the button is located at the top left corner of my phone. Additionally, it seems unavailable in the Android Auto interface.

Add "avoid side streets" option
In certain neighborhoods, side street routes are unsafe and not necessarily faster than sticking with the main drag: nothing like having to wait with 3 of my fellow Wazers while an onstreet drug deal concludes in front of us (side street alternative route directed by Waze in NE DC). Or maybe just add "Drug deal in progress" to the notifications?

Easy access for TOLL/VIGNETTE settings + Vignettes with time limit
Make TOLL road VIGNETTE selection EASIER TO ACCESS.
Allow to set up VIGNETTE with "expiration date" (from-to)! In the EU we might have 1, 10, 30 day or 365 day vignette.

Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help driver to avoid forbidden streets
Implement a setting for winter tires with studs and help the driver to avoid forbidden streets. In urban areas in the Nordic countries it is becoming more common that local politicians forbid driving cars with winter tires with studs on some streets with high pollution. When creating a route to a destination, Waze do not take into account that some of the streets may be restricted due to this. This is becoming a problem since the driver need to be a local to know where not to drive. Signs showing the restriction are always present but will be noticed too…

Avoid wind farms / windfarms / wind turbines
I can't drive with those monstrous things right next to me. I had 30 miles through Indiana on I-65 where I thought I was going to wipe out. I have to drive across country later this year and need to avoid these otherworldly distractions. I have already searched for ways to avoid them (and an alternate route for where I was going through IN) and have found nothing. (I am all for alt energy but not in my driving eyeline on top of me like that. More solar!)

Hi dear waze team.
Now we have highlighted lane indicators on the top of screen which is very helpful to drive in the express way with 3 or more lane. Thanks for this great improvement.
The only thing missing in this App is the Bluetooth and FM transmitter
With improving this two option, waze will be the top and best in the world.
Thanks1 voteGreat news! One of the most requested suggestions – Lane Guidance, is now available in Waze. Thanks for your suggestion. Drive safely!

Separate lane sign for public transport
Waze is far long ago navigates with public transport lanes, but still there is no public transport sign in lane editor on the junctions, so it is impossible to place the lane signs on junctions like in the pic. below correctly
I suggest to add additional PT lane sign like this, that will solve the navigation problem and will correctly show the location of PT sign
