Would be good if Wazers could remove traffic jams as well as adding them. Sometimes I drive normal speed on a red road. It happens that the opposite direction is fluid but is shown red on Waze

Turn traffic, ability to report and to use in navigation
There must be an option to report traffic for a specific turn. The reason is that a given road may be moving well through an intersection, but specifically a left turn lane onto an intersecting road can be jammed. In such a case the navigator won't use that road to turn left and find another route.
As an example. Let's say I am driving on Main St and there are 3 intersecting roads coming up, Street 1, Street 2, and Street 3. My destination is at Street 2, where I need to turn left from Main St. Waze doesn't know…

SPLIT: notify drivers of heavy traffic ahead of time and offer alternative routes
Another suggestion would be when the app sees there is heavy traffic well before and notifies the driver of different routes available due to the accident or whatever may be holding up traffic.
Thank you!!

Monitor time at intersections to help determine routing choices.
I would like Waze to take in to account either the maximum time / average time a driver spends at a particular traffic light before continuing to drive. There are certain lights with really long timing that I avoid when Waze tries to route me that way. I don't think Waze considers long lights when routing. Typically would matter more for local routing than long distance routing.

certified account for reporting their own troublesome work traffic
companies working in the roadside should be able to create a certified account for reporting their own troublesome work traffic. With nature, the places, the expected duration etc.
and even predicting in advance of troublesome work.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.

Possibly Clear Up what is meant by the "Traffic Jam" reports
Instead of having "Moderate", "Heavy" and "Standstill", why not clarify these categories a little more. They could possibly be instead "Congestion", "Slow Down" and "Standstill". I think these adequately reflect the different degrees of traffic jams that occur. Congestion is still dangerous but might not reflect a great decrease in speed. When drivers will have to decrease their speed that is useful to know, and of course "Standstills" are self explanatory.
An alternative option could be to elaborate on the provided categories more instead of changing them. They just seem a little ambiguous.3 votes -

Needing multiple people to remove a posted notifier (traffic, police, etc)
The fact that a single person can remove a notifier by saying “it’s no longer there” is a little broken I think the app should need a minimum of 3 users saying the (traffic, debris, accident, police, etc) are no longer there. -ps got a **** ton of ideas first ones free next 50 need a job opportunity

Timer display for Traffic Signal (UAE Region)
It would be great help if there are timers that pop up when we are close to traffic signals indicating how much time left for the signal to turn either red or green. This would assist the drivers to make up their minds beforehand either to stop or continue.
I have seen this implemented in china on another application1 vote -

Highlight crowded regions, colour it with red to symbolize there may be traffic jam
Don't change the routes but yes but highlight the traffic jams.
Why no alternate routes because it takes same time to reach the destination then. Slight moving traffic would help us reach early.
But let us know it.1 vote -
Disable query to driver of potential traffic/slow down when entering tunnel
GPS is commonly lost when entering tunnels. The app should disable asking the driver if they have encountered traffic and a slow down if the driver is in a tunnel.

I ride a motorcycle and sometimes I need to use Waze. It would be great if there was an option to "ignore" traffic and do the fastest path.
I ride a motorcycle and sometimes I need to use Waze. It would be great if there was an option to "ignore" traffic and do the fastest path. Since I ride a moto, I never get traffic.

Earlier notifications of traffic jams. Needs to be alerted minimum 15 miles before an incident
Sitting in a traffic jam of about 10 miles that could’ve been avoided by an earlier notification of an incident causing a major backup. Minimum alert of 15-20 miles. Germany has it with the autobahn.

Map view in alternative routes is too monotone to be useful. No hazards or traffic indicators. Difficult to see highway names.
