Waze para Motocicletas (Waze for Motorcicles)
Em São Paulo, no Brasil, há um grande número de motociclistas que utilizam o Waze diariamente, como eu. Porém, o navegador recalcula as rotas conforme o trânsito de carros, o que não é interessante para nós, devido aos corredores de motos (faixas entre os carros). Por isso, gostaria de sugerir que fosse criado um modo especial para motos, que pode ser dentro do próprio programa, que não recalcule as rotas da mesma maneira que faz para os carros. No caso, recalcularia somente em casos de bloqueios ou acidentes. Desde já, agradeço e parabenizo pelo aplicativo, que nos ajuda muito!

The app should show us the toll at the highway. Also in a near future waze should tell us where there is a parking place near our desteny.
The app showing us and telling us the toll ahead on the highway and the price.
Also would be very nice the app telling us empty parking places near our destiny address. This would be a great deal.
Thanks.1 vote -
Warn me when the estimated time of my commute (by a certain route) is taking longer than usual.
I prefer not to take toll roads. They're expensive. So, if my commute by normal roads is approaching 30 minutes (which is how long I give myself to get to work), I want to know, so that I can leave with enough time to make it there without paying for the toll road.

Avoid Thomas Hill Rd, Madison, IN 47250
We have semi tractor trailer traffic that comes from North and East that is directed from the main highways to take Thomas Hill Rd. This is not a semi tractor trailer safe road. It is one lane, windy, and no guard rails with many sharp turns. They get stuck and have to be towed back out. This causes degradation of the road at a higher rate than normal erosion, it is very unsafe, uses county resources to remove them, etc. THey are trying to get to the power plant that is at the bottom of this hill. A regular pass…

i was looking for nearest Gas station on Saturday near Ramat Gan, Israel, and Waze suggested me the nearest Gas station in Bnei Brak, when i arrived it was closed due to Shabbat. why Waze suggests me a closed Gas station?

Entrance to GWB from Riverside Dr South in NYC, dangerous directions.
This entrance puts you in the left lanes of 6 lanes of ferocious traffic. Waze always recommends the Lower Level, which is the rightmost 2 lanes, and would require crossing several lanes of traffic in a very short distance - very dangerous. Waze should recommend the Upper Level which is directly ahead and requires no lane change. People not familiar with the area may attempt to follow the Lower Level directions which would lead to hazardous driving.

In Israeli maps, there is only an option to avoid A and B roads. I suggest adding C roads as well, as they are less safe and can be danger
In Israeli maps, there is only an option to avoid A and B roads. I also suggest adding C roads, as they are less safe and can be dangerous.
At least give the driver a warning ⚠️ whenever the route is passing through the C roades3 votes -

Better lane guidance
I like the idea of lane guidance but I would like it if it says stay in this or that lane instead of saying continue straight with arrows pointing up just like what Apple Maps does for example so that way people aren’t cutting across lanes of traffic which I see all the time and that includes turning left or right onto an intersection wether it has a traffic light or not I noticed Apple Maps for example says stay in the middle or left or right lane I would really like it if waze does what Apple Maps does…

Waze has the framework to potentially help avoid chain reaction vehicle accidents
I have been studying chain reaction vehicle accidents for years and I belive that Waze may have most of the architecture already in place to alert drivers not yet at the accident scene to slow or stop, which would minimize or eliminate the wreckage, injuries and deaths that occur when low-visability causes vehicles to continue running into a crash site, creating a chain reaction accident. My request is to communicate with one of your engineers to discuss the concept.

Option for avoiding hov
Why is Waze being so stubborn with not creating an option for AVOIDING HOV lanes, like the simple checkbox for avoiding ferries??? A solo driver CANNOT be in a HOV lane by themselves during rush hour .. why is this so difficult to understand??? But instead I have to see directions to either get into the hov when I can't, or out of it when I was never in it in the first place.... C'mon now.... Stop focusing on a 100 voice options (that you can't easily sample in advance of actually driving btw) provide simple common…

Add a "Military" pass to the options
Just like there are toll passes, CAV decals, and other options, there should be a "Military" pass and the ability to set "Military" restrictions on segments. This would reduce the amount of through routing on military installations.

Tagging the lane of an accident
It would be nice for users to have the ability to tag what lane(s) an accident is in when they report an accident. Often users add this information in comments, but that takes time and becomes hazardous to look through as you're driving.

Narrow street flags
Here in Pittsburgh, we're a city of hills, bluffs, and narrow, winding roads, and listening to Waze help navigate me has led to $400 in repairs and 3 near accidents in the past 2 months by taking me through poorly maintained streets and roads so narrow that, while not legally-required to be one way, nevertheless make for perilous travel with few opportunities to turn around and try another route.
If users or editors could flag narrow streets and if an option was labeled to avoid these streets, similar to the options to avoid toll roads, it would be a major…

Overtaking
Overtaking lanes in Australia is a must. We have single lane highways and 3 trailer trucks to overtake, this will save so many accidents. It doesn’t need to be built into the map just as a button for the crowd to add so we know there is an overtaking lane coming up, we will wait before passing on dodgy roads filled with Kangaroos!

Make a police in motion icon.
The Icon will move at the with the current speed of the Wazer who tapped it. The Icon would move for 1 KM and then dissappear. This would be helpful for those speeding in the HOV lanes or going opposite traffic. Police have radars that will track you if you are approaching them now.

have an alert when waze is directing you into a high crime area
have an audible alert or color code when waze is directing you into a high crime area. Often locals avoid those areas and they will therefore have less traffic. But not always a good idea to go into those areas especially at night.

Rettungssgassen-Erinnerung
Es wäre toll wenn Waze in Staus auf Autobahnen den Fahrer optisch oder akkustisch an das Bilden der Rettungsgasse erinnert. Viele Fahrer vergessen das häufig, ich auch manchmal.
