I'm just curious if your algorithms take into account the lack of school traffic in the summer.
Summer traffic is lighter. Averages over the entire year will be diluted.

Improved Automatic Re-Routing for Traffic Congestion in Waze
We would like to propose an enhancement to Waze's automatic re-routing feature to provide users with greater control and flexibility when navigating around traffic congestion.
Currently, Waze offers basic re-routing, but it lacks the ability to:
Prioritize surface streets or alternate highways/freeways: This would be particularly valuable for users who prefer avoiding congested highways altogether, even if it means a slightly longer route.
Define granular re-routing preferences: A binary on/off toggle is limiting. We propose options similar to existing route preferences (fastest/shortest) that allow users to:
Set time windows for re-routing: For example, automatically re-route during known rush hour periods.

Urgent Proposal: Integrate E-Bike and Scooter Riders into the Waze Map for Driver and Rider Safety
The Immediate Safety Need
I am urgently requesting that you integrate electric bicycle and scooter riders into the Waze traffic map. I believe the primary need is not just navigation for the riders themselves, but to increase the visibility of these vehicles in the eyes of the car drivers who use the application.
I see that Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs) – e-scooters and e-bikes – have become an integral part of urban and intercity traffic. They travel on the edge of roads, in bus lanes, and on bike paths close to driving lanes, and they pose a significant risk for…1 vote -
LTN exemption in London
Although some residents, vehicles and disabled persons are exempt from some LTN zones in London and can therefore pass through the barriers and avoid camera fines, there is no feature in the app to create an exemption

Mark the boundaries of small and big ring for bad emissions control in Sofia, Bulgaria
There are restrictions for cars with 1 and 2 eco group to go in small and big center rings in Sofia, Bulgaria. It will be very helpful to make an option to show these rings, and people can avoid entering the zones.

lez
I bought a second hand car that’s not allowed in most Low Emission Zones. Is it possible to DISABLE going through LEZ, not even suggesting those routes?
In addition to that, would it be possible to give an alternative (as we call “randparkeren”): find a parking garage outside the LEZ and use public transport to access the LEZ?1 vote -
Optimization Proposal for Waze – Integration of Support for Buses and Trucks
To enhance user experience and expand the app’s target audience, it is recommended to add dedicated support for heavy and public vehicles such as buses and trucks. This feature would include the following components:
Customized Driver Profiles – An option to select the type of vehicle: truck, bus, private car, motorcycle, etc.
Tailored Route Planning – Routes would consider height and weight restrictions, specific traffic signs (e.g., "No entry for trucks"), and restricted access zones.
Integration of Dedicated Lanes – For buses: display of bus-only lanes (such as BRT or HOV lanes) and incorporate their availability into route planning.

Background traffic info collection
Waze seems to have problems detecting traffic fast enough in zones where it isn't heavily used. In these zones other navigators simply do better in what Waze should be the king.
A solution might be adding an option to allow Waze collecting anonymous info such as user speed, location and direction even when closed, as a background service, to help increase traffic accuracy.
This way everybody with Waze installed can contribute to increase traffic accuracy (instead of just those who have the app actually running).
Since this can be considered a privacy concern for certain people, it could…1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Suggest to show clearly which lane to choose for multi-lane roundabouts in the UK and bus lanes
Eagerly hoping Waze will have a clear guidance of which lane to choose for multi-lane roundabouts in the uk, i often get confused about which lane to choose. This will be very helpful especially for new drivers or people entering new zones, i often see crashes of cars choosing wrong lanes in multi-lane roundabouts. Please add this feature. Another suggestion is adding bus lanes alert.

Affichage
Afficher en permanence l'adresse de destination en haut de l'écran. On a parfois des doutes sur la destination qu'on a choisi.
De plus, lorsqu'on saisie une destination un message propose d'activer le Bluetooth pour les zones de tunnels (perte de la connexion GPS), quand on clic dessus on ne trouve pas l'endroit où il faut cliquer pour activer. Il serait bien de préciser la manipulation.1 vote -
Make camera/police notification distance speed dependent
In low speed zones, there will be a notification for a camera coming up in 600 meters. That's way too far: at 50kph, I'll have forgotten about it by the time I get there.
The other way around, 600 meters might be too short on a highway, at high speed (especially if the camera/speedtrap is reported slightly ahead of where it actually is)

Various suggestions
() Lame - you removed Schwarzenegger voice at update without warning () No ability to search voice list - forced to scroll unordered list () While en route to destination, app suggests food establishments that are MANY miles in OPPOSITE DIRECTION () In Andriod Auto mode, if view Contact, click SHARE street address, choose Waze, the waze app throws error - cant find address - yet works expectedly when not on AndroidAuto () App needs to allow user to define temporary road detours, school zones, large speed humps () Show the current road…

Updates to / new reportables
Pot Hole (Choose which lane to report for)
Debris in road (Choose which lane to report for)
Visibility alert (Smoke & Fire) (not just bad weather)
Reduced speed alert (Australia 40km,60km,80km,100km) Some zones are 110 but when reduced to 60 it doesn't always change on navigation - Add the option as a reportable.
Option to choose specific reports to have audible alerts.. I usually run mine with no sound at all but would be good to be able to select Police / Speed camera alerts ONLY as audible.

Integration with parking apps
I think it would be cool if you could work in integration with Ringo and Paybyphone and similar apps so it's only one button between arriving at the end of the Waze route and purchasing parking time - Waze should obviously be able to recognise the car park based on GPS but can always load it up ahead of time when you navigate directly to a specific carpark - maybe it could warn you about other nearby parking zones so you make sure you're selecting the right place

Safety
I’m a dedicated Waze user and truly appreciate how the app helps me avoid traffic, accidents, and delays. However, I’ve noticed that it sometimes routes me through areas that are unsafe — which is especially concerning when I’m driving alone as a woman. In truth, safety on the road is a priority for everyone. Waze could be even more powerful if it included a feature that allowed users to flag potentially unsafe areas and create “avoid zones” for routing. This would not only protect drivers but also build greater trust and loyalty among users.
