In road hazards, include an option for "rough road".
There are a number of times when traveling and the road I was on was in terrible condition. It was extremely bumpy, some pot holes, loose gravel, etc. I would have liked a warning regarding these conditions. While there is a pot hole warning option, that does not clearly express the quality of the road in toto. These rough road conditions apply to paved roads as well as dirt roads. In reality, in some places where I have driven the dirt roads were in better condition than the paved roads.

Put app in Tesla S
Partner with Tesla to have Waze added (or replace Google Maps). I have a Tesla S and the customized Google maps that comes with the car is often VERY wrong about directions and traffic. I end up using Waze on my phone to find the best alternative routes. Give Elon Musk a call!

Add DUI check point report button
Add a DUI check point alert, report button that is seperate from police reports. This can be linked with online area reports plus waze drivers can report. But it would help if could say which direction on the street the checkpoint is set up on.

Paddington Voice
Please make the Paddington Bear voice a permanent option. It is the only navigation voice that I don't want to argue with. It creates a calming experience and i’m upset to open Waze to a a notification that it’s leaving. I’ve got many friends and family using Waze so they too can enjoy the Paddington Bear voice.

INCLUDE KAMIKAZE´S ALERT IN WAZE
LIVES COULD BE SAVED BY INCLUDING A QUICK ACCESS KAMIKAZE (vehicle driving in the wrong direction) ALERT ON WAZE. KAMIKAZES IS ONE, IF NOT THE DEADLIEST DANGERS THAT YOU CAN ENCOUNTER ON A ROAD AND WAZE DO NOT HAVE THIS ALERT. I THINK IT SHOULD INCLUDE IT ASAP

5. Speed limit should blink after certain speed limit43 votes -
Update the car play / android auto app of Waze
Waze should be updated for car play user and android auto. We do not have full functionalities like the iOS or android mobile app. For example we can only report police, not hides ones or in the opposite side. Same for errors in the map, we can’t add a commentary if we use car play for example. All iOS and android fonctionnalités should be added to car play and android auto to have a 100% good,experience.

Aviso radar siempre
Buenos dias. Normalmente cuando circulas por debajo del límite de velocidad la app marca el radar al acercarse a uno, pero no avisa por qué vas por debajo de la velocidad. En el caso de camiones o furgonetas puedes circular por ejemplo a 100 km/h y que el radar este a 120km/h. El problema es que este tipo de vehículos tienen que circular a 90km/h por lo que muchos radares sin no te avisa te pueden multar. Había pensado en alguna opción que haga que la app te avise siempre de un radar fueras a la velocidad que sea pero siempre con aviso sonoro como lo hace de manera nativa. Muchas gracias

Dashcam and offline navigation
An offline navigation feature along with dashcam, offline as in Google Maps or Sygic to ensure that people with limited data can save it and Dashcam to ensure a piece of evidence in case of any untoward incident

You should be able to fully adjust the volume of the voice separately from the volume of music playing.
Add a volume bar to customize the sound of navigation voice over music. If listening to music at a higher level the voice is overwhelming.

Please add an immigration and customs enforcement Checkpoint
Could you please add an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Checkpoint item into a future version of waze? These are not police items, but can slow traffic down, so knowing in advance where they are would be COOL!

Allow the use of bluetooth controls while Waze is in the foreground.
When Waze is running in the foreground, my bluetooth controls don't work. So I have to do a whole bunch of on-screen gymnastics just to skip to the next track in my queue. This is potentially dangerous while driving. I should be able to use the button on my steering wheel. (It works fine when Waze isn't running.)

International Land Border Wait Time Predictions
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature enhancement that could significantly improve the accuracy of ETA predictions for routes involving international land borders, such as those between the USA and Canada or the USA and Mexico.
Current Situation:
At present, it appears that Waze calculates ETA for routes involving international land borders based on general traffic data. This approach treats the border crossing as a regular segment of the journey, comparing travel times between points A and B without considering the unique delays associated with border crossings.Proposed Enhancement:
To provide more accurate ETAs and better routing options, I propose that Waze integrates more detailed data analysis specifically for land border crossings. This could involve:Border-Specific Data Collection: Analyze the time it takes for drivers to move from the point they reach the border crossing line to the point they clear the crossing. This data should be collected continuously to capture variations throughout the day and week.
Real-Time Updates: Provide real-time updates on wait times at border crossings, similar to how traffic congestion is currently reported.
Alternative Routing: Use the detailed wait time data to offer more effective rerouting suggestions. If a particular crossing has a significant delay, Waze could suggest alternative crossings with shorter wait times.
User Feedback Integration: Allow users to report their wait times and border experiences, enhancing the data pool and improving prediction accuracy.
Benefits:
- Increased Accuracy: More precise ETA calculations for routes involving international borders.
- Improved User Experience: Users will have a clearer understanding of potential delays, allowing for better travel planning.
- Enhanced Routing: More effective reroutes can save time and reduce congestion at heavily impacted crossings.Implementing these features would make Waze an even more valuable tool for travelers who frequently cross international land borders. Thank you for considering this suggestion.

Dear Sir or Madam,

text and rest areas
There are 2 things that would be an improvement on long trips.
1. Larger text (speed limit and miles to go)
2. Rest areas along the route.42 votes
