Speed Camera Audio Alerts should be User not Community Choice
It seems there is a lack of clarity regarding Speed Camera Audio Alerts and how they are triggered.
From what I can tell, audio alerts for speed cameras are a "community" choice, meaning that an audio alert will only be played given a number of conditions:
Depending on where you live - Your "community" decides what the threshold should be, that is if you are currently travelling at the speed limit or below, some communities will trigger the audio alert. Some communities require you to be travelling over the speed limit before the audio alert it triggered.…

subject: add feature to automatically sort multiple destinations by distance or direction.
message: hello Waze team,

feature request: please consider adding a feature that allows users to-enter multiple destinations at once (multi stop routing).automatically sort them either: by distance from the current location (closest to farthest) or in a specific direction (from south to north) .

update alerts for other side of road
I would like to be able to update alerts on either side of the road as no longer there, not just the side of the road I'm traveling on. Just like how Waze currently asks if a hazard is still there if it's in my traveling direction, it'd be nice to be able to click on a hazard or alert on the opposite side of the road and delete it if it's no longer there or relevant.
Also, what happened to reporting hazards/traffic on the opposite side of the road after this newest android update? It's awful! It needs…18 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Search Suggestions
When performing search for any point of interest, Waze returns suggestions as you type. Those suggestions are presented in weirdest order. It doesn't show distance and sometimes can suggest location that is completely different state while in reality there is one close by.

Secure routes
People should feedback the security of route (too dark, too dangerous, too lonely in a 1-5 scale for example). this way, user can choose route by distance, ETA or security.
Some times I just drive through routes I didn't wanna to if I knew.

When entering a traffic alert, if we enter "standstill" you should be marking the traffic on the map AHEAD of where we are not behind us.
When entering a traffic alert, if we enter "standstill" you should be marking the traffic on the map AHEAD of where we are not behind us. We click "standstill" when we hit the traffic not after we left it.

In honor of White Cane Safety Day, create a alert to drivers that notifies the driver a person using a white cane is ahead.
A person with a visual impairment can log on to the app and WAZE will track the user as they walk.
A driver using the app is notified when a person using a white cane is nearby.114 votes -
Give me a "I know where I'm going so don't bug me unless I need to know something" option
You need an option that allows the user to indicate that they know the route that they are taking, e.g., I don't need turn by turn instructions- I take the same handful of routes every day but I use Waze for estimating distance or alerting me to obstacles. Instead, tell me when the route I'm on has a problem. Because you don't have this option, I turn it on and off at various times.
3 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Addresses in Colombia
Addresses are pretty easy to implement in Colombia, they have 2 components. The main road being it a Calle or Carrera most of the time, and the House number, made of two parts, The intersection with the opposing road, for example a Carrera would intersect with a Calle and viceversa, and the distance from the intersection. For example, Calle 45 #67-85 would be 85 meters after the intersection of Calle 45 and Carrera 67, on Calle 45 going towards calle 68. It would be pretty easy, and really convenient for users in Colombia.
31 votesThank you for this suggestion.
We are aware of this need since address fields are ordered differently from one country to the other.
Providing this flexibility in address fields is planned but it’s out of current scope so we can’t share a timeline at the moment.
We will keep the community posted, so stay tuned! -
Why do some reports require two confirmations in Car Play?
Why do some report confirmations require "Still There" to be selected twice? It seems to be based on distance from the incident for some reason, i.e. if I'm very close it seems to need on, but farther away asks twice.

PLEASE limit the number of fog alerts! I can SEE that it's foggy...I don't need to be alerted it's foggy EVERY minute on my hour drive!
PLEASE limit the number of fog alerts! I can SEE that it's foggy...I don't need to be alerted it's foggy at all let alone EVERY minute on my hour long commute to work! It was SO annoying...literally every minute I was getting the "warning fog reported ahead" over and over and over. Ideally, get rid of the fog alert option altogether so there are none at all! If it's foggy enough to be alerted about it 0.4 miles away, it's already foggy where you're driving! Fog spreads out!

Sudden braking alert
add service that when a suspicious sudden barking occur, will pop up real time warning to a nearby car.
this might increase the chances of the driver behind to notice that something might had happend and he/she will slow down\stop in time.

Display current speed and limit when approaching speed camera
Currently speed camera alert covers whole bottom screen and hides current speed and allowed speed.
It would be super useful even just to see allowed speed!

Speedometer alert threshold at 20%
You have 5,10,15,20 km as threshold and 5%,10%,15%. In many countries, radar detection is set at 20%, so why not add 20% as well? Or even better, a custom number both in km and %

Lighting effects on alerts
If Police is reported ahead, then we should get blue and red lights flashing. Basically, have different lighting effects on alerts and turn them off if we don't want it at all or for a specific alert.

I have two ideas. 1. The marking above which shows the direction of movement and the distance until the change will be both together, on the side you are facing. It is more convenient to follow and not make a mistake in turning. 2. The name of the chosen final destination will be listed below, next to the estimated time of arrival, so that there is no doubt that the navigation is where we have chosen. Thanks, Ron. dookrav.ron@gmail.com
