Vitesse
Serait-il possible a partir de l historique de navigation, de récupérer la vitesse GPS en un point précis. Cela permettrait de lever le doute lors d un contrôle de vitesse.?

Safety and crime based routes and reporting
Waze should introduce a feature that allows users to report unsafe or crime-prone roads—especially relevant in high-risk areas like South Africa. Based on personal experience, Waze has sometimes routed users through dangerous neighborhoods, which can be especially hazardous for tourists or those unfamiliar with the area.
This feature should allow users to flag roads where recent crime has occurred or where safety is a concern. These reports could be time-stamped and reviewed by the community, similar to how speed traps or traffic accidents are currently handled.
In addition, Waze should add a toggle in the app’s navigation settings—like those for…

Posibility to confirm that other person than driver is using android auto on car's display At android auto. Now it won't let either a passenger to use navigation as it assumes that driver is using it.
Problem is also that google assistant (voice control is working fine in waze app but not in android auto.
So if I connect phone to car it doesn't understand my english but if I use waze on phone without connection to car it understands my english well.
This causes that I need to stop or use phone while driving instead of more safety using…3 votes -
multiple reports, same spot (cluster control)
There are times where multiple people report the same thing. Either cops or construction or whatever. Instead of having a cluster of reports in a single spot, if they could be compiled and a single marker be put as to where there these reports are. I know it's possible as I've seen the pins with the little number at the right of the marker.

barra del radar de tramo
Cuando usas el móvil en un soporte horizontal no aparece la barra que te indica en qué posición te encuentras con respecto al radar de tramo. Estaría genial poder verla para llevar el control sobre todo cuando vas en moto que no escuchas las indicaciones.

Bonjour, Pourquoi ne pas indiquer oralement les changements de limitations de vitesse
Mon idée est d'avoir une assistance vocale indiquant les changements des limitations de vitesse, plutôt que d'entendre les zones de contrôles ou de police. Informations qui n'aident pas à la conduite, mais à éviter les forces de l'ordre...Très utile pour les trafics en tout genre !!!

Add a reliability score to users notifications?
Hi,
I frequently drive past speed traps where officers are parked dangerously in the road in an effort to increase revenue in the city and have clearly seen some on the Waze app while pulled along side of them.I periodically see that Waze sends me an update letting me know other users have thanked me for my posting. Is there any technology that allows Waze to gauge a posting based off of a users reliability score?
The reason I feel this is important is because I frequently feel that police officers are falsely reporting that the report of their…

Improve speed control zones approaching alerts
Colombian wazers have been facing problems due to speeding fines, sadly in most of the cases is not about Waze alerts, but is the poor signaling on the Colombian roads and autoways. Given this, is it possible for you guys to deploy a kind of beep when driver is approaching a radar/speed camera detection zone, let’s say 300m before the location of the camera have a beeping which is increasing frecuency the more you approach the camera/radar location? This could help drivers reduce speed and avoid fines due to the lack of standardized signaling in Colombian roads. Thanks!

Speed alarm incorporated or information to be incorporated to automated driving system
I would like to see in my life smart cities where the limit speed is set by Waze users in order to get less acidents and preserve life. Cities will have antenas to spread the real speed limit to automated pilot or driver assistance on the vehicles controling the upper limit of velocity.

Use Waze information to Control Traffic Lights
Since I'm a long time user of Waze and Google Maps, I was wondering if Alphabet Inc. has considered designing a smart system that would use the data transmitted by Waze clients to program traffic lights.
From the research I've done, the actual smart systems in advanced cities are based on sensors and cameras placed at the intersections which makes this solution very expensive and thus not attractive to third world country cities. There's even a proposal using RFIDs in vehicles.
I am sure that city governments would promote vigorously the use of these apps and embrace a solution that…

Be able to interface from your phone like Apple iPhone
I really like your app and use it every day. My frustration is that I use a Samsung Android smart phone (I am not a fan of Apple iPhone's). Apple play works very well with your app. You can control your app from the phone or the car interface (basically the car mirrors the phone). With Android play you can't control the app or view the app from your phone. All interfaces have to be on the car not the phone. Secondly if you use the app now on the car navigation screen (as I said) you can only control…

Thanks

In motorcycle mode make all choice options timed so they go away without need to press an option (not possible while riding, or in gloves)
New route available options make Waze useless on a motorcycle. They cover the speedo and cannot be selected without stopping, removing glove and pressing a choice. I had to stop three times today. I have a bluetooth controller on the bike but that seems to get disabled when these announcements appear so stopping is the only option. I am using the motorcycle mode with motorcycle selected as my vehicle.

Events should have more control over closures
Since events don't always start on time and rarly end on time, there should be an easier way to update all closures:
A. After defining the dates & times of an event, all closures will inharit it name and times. This will save most of the work handling a large event.
B. Closures who are part of an event will not get deleted when their time is up, but will stay "inactive" for at least a week.
C. Updating the times of an event will update the times of all closures who's time had been inharited from it (e.g. have…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.

Better control of how information is displayed.
New release has White notifications on a Light Blue background. I can't read it. Need some contrast, letter outlines, drop shadow, different colors...something.

keyboard shortcut
It would be nice to implement native iOS keyboard shortcuts. Like the Apple Maps app which supports:
CMD + for Zoom In
CMD - for Zoom OutAnd maybe add support for the use of arrow keys to move the map around. CMD UPARROW/DOWNARROW etc.
Another handy one would be a combination to recenter the map.
I am using an iPad for navigation and I'm building a bluetooth remote control :-)

Identify Tope’s / speedbumps in Mexico
Just like potholes might be a good idea- in Mexico there are 1000’s of speedbumps that in Spanish are called Topes. It would be a great value add to add an alert for upcoming speed bumps as non-local drivers are at risk of hitting speed bumps at full road speed which is dangerous for the driver and vehicle. This feature would be greatly valued for drivers in any country that uses speed bumps to control vehicle velocity

Ambulance
Good morning. Thank you for your application. I have a suggestion. I am a paramedic and like many paramedics we use your application to respect speed limits and pay attention to control zones. Would it be possible to add an ambulance vehicle and if possible a quickest route for the ambulances taking into account the size of the ambulances. Thank you in advance for considering my proposal.
