Please include tunnel closures in your map feature so routes will avoid them in Singapore
There are many tunnels closure in Singapore in the middle of the night. Would be helpful for drivers if we get routes that avoid them

State by state Laws
When crossing state lines, the app would alert you to state laws regarding cell phone/texting, wipers/headlights, toll transponder reciprocity, etc. We discovered the hard way (toll + fine) that Florida does not accept payment from any other states transponder.

Report single lane stopped traffic on motorway
Sometimes there is a build-up of traffic in lane 1 of the motorway when approaching a junction, due to issues off of the motorway - causing cars to slam on their brakes and sometimes even causing accidents - while lanes 2 and 3 remain free-flowing.
Please allow a way of reporting single lane stopped traffic, or "exit-lane spillover" traffic (not sure how it should be worded).

"Change of Lane" Transparent Buttons while navigating.
Sometimes while navigating, Waze suggests to change from the central lanes, to the low speed lanes, and sometimes we don't follow that suggestion (for different reasons) but still Waze thinks we did, therefore if we send a report then it would be in the wrong lane.
I suggest to place 2 transparent buttons (left and right) for a quick change of lane according in the direction we are travelling, this would be also helpful if we are using a "first level" road when Waze things we are on the "second level".
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.

There is an "avoid freeways" option, however no "freeway promiscuous" option (or a simple slider bar).
Some people prefer to avoid highways, however I (and presumably others) prefer them (even congested ones). There ought to be fine positive and negative control (a slider bar?) over this metric, I often find Waze taking me through intersections etc rather than simply entering the highway.

Highlight 2 lane roads that have infrequent passing zones
There are several spots between Victorville, CA, and SR-145 that are only two lanes, one each way. My suggestion is to highlight/identify the sections or roads that are no-pass zones. Roads like this, where there me several miles between passing lanes? Change the color to flashing read, or something. ;-)
Contact me if you have questions.
Almost every time I travel this way I have someone tailgating, wanting to pass me (and I'm already going over the posted limit), and sometimes they pass or try to pass in no-pass zones and I've seen several near misses.I know…

Google results be suppressed when a Waze place exists to avoid confusion.
Someone at Waze has been helping me with an issue on an incorrect Google address. He recommended that when Waze has the information correct, that the Google results be suppressed when a Waze place exists. This is a great idea to avoid confusion when the Google location is wrong and has not yet been corrected.

Bicycle navigation and bike routes for waze!!! Please!!
Can you please add bicycle routes to the app and ways to avoid roads that go over a certain speed limit? The option to set your vehicle as a bicycle and find routes like that avoid high speed roads and roads that dont allow bikes conbined with all of the other great functions of the app will be fantastic...
But since you don't have the feature so many bicyclists won't get to navigate with your app and get the same benefits that car drivers have... I really need a navigator for bikers that shows the speed limits of the roads…

Streamline CarPlay display
I totally appreciate turning off the ability to add comments to traffic reports while on CarPlay. But if they're not going to expand so I can read something someone's already commented, can those green bubbles stay off the map?
For accidents and road work, it would be nice to be able to see which lanes are closed (if any) to avoid merging at the last minute.

One Lane Bridge Alerts
It would be great to have a warning when approaching a one lane bridge, given that it's an important time to slow down and be prepared to stop. By one lane bridge, I mean a bridge with one lane that is shared be the traffic going in either direction (https://www.nzta.govt.nz/roadcode/general-road-code/road-code/about-driving/giving-way/giving-way-on-one-lane-bridges/).
Generally one direction gets the right of way, so it would also be handy to have that included in the warning.

Clean Special Fuel Vehicle HOV Access
In Virginia they offer Clean Special Fuel Vehicle license plates for vehicles to access to only certain HOV lanes. For example, I cannot use I-95 EZ Pass for free unless I have 3+ people, but I can use the Dulles Toll Road and a few others that meet the criteria for the IRS for Clean Special Fuel Vehicles.
We need an option to put in the type of playe/access that will route away from tolls, but allow us to use the HOV lanes where it is free. I'm sure this is similar in other states and places.

Avoid roads with 70 km/h speed limit in France
I’m currently driving a sans permis car in France, which has a maximum speed of only 45 km/h. That’s why having the option to avoid roads with a 70 km/h speed limit is incredibly helpful for drivers like me. On these roads, it’s common to see cars not only reaching the speed limit but often exceeding it. They go so fast that it’s impossible for me to keep up with the flow of traffic. Honestly, it stresses me out every time I find myself on one of these roads.

Cars with caravans
Could you do routes for cars and caravans. This should take into account the extra width and the difficulty in reversing along country lanes if you meet an oncoming vehicle

Lane Guidance
While using Waze on highways lately, I have begun to think that having the ability to see what lane becomes the off ramp would be great, especially in complex city interchanges.
Portuguese: Estava usando o Waze em rodovias e comecei a pensar que seria ótimo ter a capacidade de ver qual pista pegar, especialmente em trevos complexos dentro das cidades.
Spanish: Últimamente me he dado cuenta que al utilizar waze en capitales se hace muy necesario que waze indique cual carril de una calle, avenida o autopista, llega a ser una rampa, especialmente en complejos intercambios.

Add Engine Brake Use Warnings so Truck Drivers can avoid fines.
Route 222 (northbound and southbound) from the intersections of Snyder Road north to Evansville Road, has a Brake Retarder Ordinance (Article VIII, §186-54), which imposes fines of $300 to $1,000 on drivers who abuse engine brakes. I think it would be great to put a warning on the map so if a truck driver is heading into this area, they will know not to use them and avoid heavy fines. Plus, it will help keep our neighborhoods quieter.

Need way to edit one lane bridge, due to long term construction, causes two way traffic to wait, traffic lights on ramps and road
Need way to edit/show one lane bridge, especially due to long term construction. Current situation causes two way traffic to wait while traffic lights on ramps and road cycle to allow only one ramp or roadway lane to proceed at a time from any direction.
No existing Waze edit function to mark local bridge that is under repairs and causing traffic delays. How can we show detour? All traffic is now funneled through one lane on bridge one traffic direction/lane at a time. No edit function to indicate this to warn drivers to avoid bridge, at least not for level…
