  1. Mute Red Light Camera Alert

    Offer an option to turn off or mute the red light camera alert. I don’t speed or go through red lights and the loud alert is distracting. It also wakes up a sleeping child ! I know drivers rely on it but I don’t like it. Offer an option!!!

  2. Red light camera alerts

    I have 4 red light cameras on my daily commute. Can there be a way for us to delete these locations so i don't have to hear them everyday? I don't want to silence alerts completely, and that seems to be the only way.

  4. Traffic Building Up

    When traffic is building up while driving on the road, Waze will zoom out suggest a new route... And do nothing. No countdown to reply before it cancels and goes back to not mal navigation, nothing. It just sits there with the suggestion to either change route or go back to current route, and the driver has to press whichever button else you get no navigation with the blocked suggestion screen on top.
    This is a road hazard as the driver is forced to choose something to continue, and imagine when it keeps suggesting route changes every few minutes.

  5. Hidden Radar (moveable)

    In Brazil, we can face some "hidden" radars. It's moveable but it is placed in he same points. So it´s interesting to give us an option to inform this kind of radar (not only, speed, light traffic or fake).

  6. Residential cut through traffic

    Anchorage, Kentucky 40223: Routing from Evergreen Road north to Ridge Road or SR146 takes Waze users down Log Cabin Lane or Woodland Road to Glenbrook Road to avoid the intersection at Evergreen and SR 146. These streets are residential with no businesses, churches, or other stops for non-residents. Traffic has increased dramatically, including trucks. Pedestrians, children and pets are at great risk of injury or death just to save a couple of minutes. Please change this routing

  7. Why are traffic jams on highway not announced? This seems like a major need going from 65mph to 0?!

    Everything else is an audible, verbalized announcement. Why are traffic jams on the highway not an audible alert to the driver? I find this to be a major miss currrntly.

  8. Suggestion: Can we get an auto-reroute or a stalled traffic ahead alert?

    Couple of years ago I was headed home from a 6 hr trip with a 98 yr old man riding shotgun. I was less than 20 miles from home and ran up on a traffic jam on the interstate that added another 3 hrs to my trip.......an auto-reroute would have helped a lot

  9. Police traffic stop - recording speed

    I would like to see an action that is a button always on the app screen displayed that allows you to capture speed and other information about your location, etc., when you are being pulled over by a police for speeding. Allow the user's to review the data at stop point to know their speeds, lets say 5 minutes prior to pressing the ticket button. Also, email the data to the user's email.

  11. Voice Nav: At the stop sign, turn left. At the stop light, turn right.

    I was riding with a friend yesterday and the app he was using gave him voice instructions like "At the stop light, turn left" and "At the stop sign, turn right". This was way more user friendly and useful than using distances such as "In 300 feet, turn right".

    Waze should add this functionality to its app as it's sometimes confusing which road to turn on when roads are close to each other and knowing that it's at a stop sig or light makes it very easy to figure out.

  15. Include traffic signal count on route summary.

    For “short” routes or re-routes, include count of traffic signals. During peak periods, a longer route may be preferable with less signals, which have the potential for delay if even no delay exists at the time of route calculation. The definition of short is arbitrary and could be decided by the devs based on utility vs performance.

  16. Integration of data from europe single access points for traffic data

    In the European Union every member state have the create a single point of access for (realtime) traffic information. In germany this single point of access is called MDM (http://www.mdm-portal.de/en/). Here you find partners which are providing traffic information which can be relevant for your service. For example some road operativers providing information regarding the realtime traffic volume or road works on this data marketplace for free. The marketplace acts as an broker between the data provider and the user of the data (e. g. your company). You should take a look on the MDM and perhaps you…
