1. UNUSUAL Hazard Category Badly Needed

   Wrong Way Driver use extreme caution warning" was reported on 295 N in FL by a digital State sign. This is a major beltway around Jacksonville, FL.

   ALSO- interstate signs were knocked down by Helene (and laid in grass by state officials and workers)making difficult to know where to go. This caused brake slamming, near wrecks, sudden lane switching etc., as people tried to navigate splits and exits for 95 and 295, and not go miles and miles the wrong way. Again, only a comment.

   In Waze, I could only report a generic hazard with a comment only for 2 huge hazards. Please create a way to report UNUSUAL warnings so that other drivers can hear/see them without having to read comments. Thank you.

2. Avoid traffic jams.

   I often travel with 3 kids on long road trips. Always rather be moving than standing in place with screaming kids and I am SURE a lot of people would agree. I recently had a trip take 10+ hours instead of the original 7 because of completely predictable and avoidable traffic jams on highways. Clearly not there in the middle of the night when I depart but jams there every day since they are because of ongoing construction work on a lane. I kind of assumed waze already tried to help you avoid these but I guess I was wrong. Ran into 4 of them.
   I need a setting to avoid jams appearing on my route with 2 extra parameters: max acceptable length of of a traffic jam (in minutes) and max percentage of remaining trip length added as a consequence of choosing an alternative route.
   This could be via a notification showing you the jam estimated length and the cost of reroute.
   Ex:
   I enable the feature and chose a 10 minute max jam time and a 15% max time increase.
   A notification appears telling me a new jam appeared on my current route. Jam seems 15 minutes long and the alternative route adds 1 hour to my route (10% of my total remaining trip time) and I gladly accept and am rerouted to leave the highway and rather keep moving that waiting in a standstill.

3. Taxi Features / Funcionalidades para taxis

   Develop options for taxi navigation such as:
   - Routes that have exclusive lanes of taxi use;
   - Proposed destination by proximity that has a shorter travel time for the passenger to end their route by walking. For example, if the navigation can determine that a point of up to 300 meters (parameter) of the destination will significantly reduce the travel time, this can be given as an option to the passenger.

   - Rotas que possuem faixas exclusivas de uso de taxi;
   - Proposta de destino por proximidade que tenha um tempo de percurso menor para que o passageiro termine sua rota caminhando. Por exemplo, se a navegação conseguir determinar que um ponto de até 300 metros (parâmetro) do destino reduzirá significativamente o tempo de viagem , isso pode ser dado como opção ao passageiro.

4. Tracking stop signs and stop lights

   In addition to "Difficult intersection" it would be very handy for two features:
   1) Waze's map to record if there are stop signs (2, 4 way), and lights at an intersection. This would (hopefully) include separate turn signals; some intersections are VERY difficult to turn left at even with a light, for example.

   2) A setting for navigation (in the app) for "Avoid unguarded turns/intersections". This would then allow a driver to NOT have to turn left across 6 lanes of traffic, for example, as the app would know there was no light at that crossing (or even going directly across).

   3) In addition, a mode for "During rush hour" would be handy for both this and the 'avoid difficult intersections'. Such turns are fine at 1:00am, impossible at 5:00pm.

   Now, this sounds like it may present a lot more options, thus confusing some drivers, but if you've ever had the joy of dozens of street turns during rush hour in LA or other severely congested area, you could see it would become life-preserving.

5. "global entry"

   Add Global Entry as an HOV option.

   Global Entry is the US Trusted Traveler program that allows the traveler to cross the border under expedited scheme. NEXUS program currently available as an HOV option allows the user to travel through special lanes available on US/Canada border.

   These lanes while traveling from Canada to the US also allows the holder of the Global Entry to enter the US through NEXUS lanes.

   Similar is available for SENTRI lanes from Mexico to US.

6. Would be cool if there was a "motorcycle" mode

   Would be cool if there was a "motorcycle" mode which prioritized freeway driving (and gives even higher priority to any freeways with a carpool or express lane), or at least try not to make you go through a bunch of hoops to go around traffic. sadly I was listening what waze told me to do...getting on and off fwy and taking sidestreets, my journey took twice as long as had i ignored waze and stayed on freeway. But having a motorcycle mode would be great in getting better ETA, and make sure it doesn't "corrupt" others ETA, It be great if it prioritized freeways with more priority given to carpool lanes, express lanes. it would also be cool if waze wouldn't try to have you make a zig-zag of turns to save a bit of time and select a route that used freeways and had as few turns as possible.

   Great news! One of the most requested suggestions – Lane Guidance, is now available in Waze. Thanks for your suggestion. Drive safely!

8. Automatically remove pop up boxes under certain conditions

   Please program an if/then response to automatically remove (without interaction) floating boxes when a road or lane change is required.

   Please make floating boxes automatically disappear within .1 miles of an intersection requiring a turn.

   They block the most important info that is needed, the actual map and road view.

   A priority rule should be programmed in the app.

   On highly congested roadways and unfamiliar highway interchanges, it is completely unsafe to read or click "still there" when that text box is covering all of the important lane information needed to get on or off in the correct lane of an unfamiliar highway interchange during rush hour. Stop and go traffic, multiple lanes, confusing maps, over crowded screen noise is unsafe under certain conditions.

   I highly suggest making a clean and crisp image of the roads and intersections the ONLY visible things on the screen within .1 miles of the turn or transition (.2 miles would be better).

   Top left is names of roads and distance. The rest of the screen should be an overhead view of upcoming roads with highlighted path.

   No blue pop up screens should ever be allowed for more than a couple seconds here. For safety, this has to be a quick notification and then disappear, if Waze deems it more of a priority.

   I don't know how many times I was driving through Chicago or the Twin Cities where the blue bubble was asking me if construction was still going on?!?!! It's fricken Chicago, construction will never end. I'm in a vehicle surrounded by intense and insane drivers driving cutthroat to get where they want to go and I can't see the overhead because I have to take my eyes off the road to lean and click a "still construction" blue box that is hiding my map... the main reason I use the app!

   It is not intuitive and it is unsafe and it causes stress.

   I cannot see what I am doing.

   I cannot read what the bubble says.

   I need to safely look in front and beside me and try to read road signs and I need to keep both hands on the steering wheel.

   Please write a program that removes everything but what is necessary to provide the service that people use your app for, when getting close to an actual turn or road change.

   Once the turn is made, go back to normal and use the blue pop ups to do whatever.

   The act of taking the eyes off of crazy traffic in an unfamiliar area to press a button on a pop up, just to provide access to the roadmap, is unsafe. It shouldn't require an interaction in certain spots.

   Please.

   I implore you.

9. Improper hazard alerts for vehicles parked on road shoulders

   In the city where I live, some roads have shoulders on one or both sides. We know that these areas are not traffic lanes, but are intended for vehicles to stop or park temporarily. However, every day, no matter which route I take, I keep receiving the alert “hazard reported – vehicle stopped.” I can see that people are reporting this incorrectly, since a vehicle stopped on the shoulder is not a hazard. This alert should only appear when a vehicle is stopped on the actual lane, truly obstructing the way. Therefore, I believe this warning should only exist for cars blocking the road, or it should be split into two categories: vehicle stopped on the road and vehicle stopped on the shoulder. It is frustrating for users to keep receiving hazard alerts and being forced to take extra caution when there is only a car parked in a safe place.

12. Line guidance / colour of the arrows

    Hello,

    Would it be possible to change the colors of the arrows? In red the routes that should not be taken, in green those that should be taken?

    On my phone, the lanes to take appear in dark white and those not to be taken in light gray.

    When you need this functionality, it's usually in an unfamiliar place and you have to concentrate more on the road.
    A quick glance cannot differentiate white from gray.

    Thank you

13. 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 and if they have biking lanes before you make the trip to plan your navigation.

    You should have the setting to make your vehile a bike and find bike routes, and to calculate how much time a trip will take you just have to ask the bicyclist to input their average biking speed and make your route estimates like that. Then through tracking their speed when you give them navigates your estimates can become even more accurate.

    It shouldn't just be for driving navigation but also for people who have to bike places and still need to find the fastest routes avoiding cops and traffic and all the other benefits that drivers have and bikers don't because the app can't calculate routes for us unless you please make an update taking my suggestions!!

14. Hi, I live in Northern Virginia in the Washington DC suburbs. Many of my trips take me around the DC Beltway and on other roads that have

    Hi,

    I live in Northern Virginia in the Washington DC suburbs. Many of my trips take me around the DC Beltway and on other roads that have "Hot Lanes." The Hot Lanes generally operate next to the regular lanes, but being toll lanes, sometimes move faster, which is why some people use them. 

    Most of the time, I don't use Hot Lanes because most of the time, they don't get me there appreciably faster and are not worth the money. There have, however, been times when I would have liked to have known how much time I could save by using them. The current system (as I understand it) treats these roads as one road, and changes the trip times based on whether I'm avoiding toll roads. The only way I've found to compare Hot Lane-versus-regular lane trip times/costs is to go into the menu>settings>navigation>avoid tolls and change the setting back and forth. That's a lot to try to do while driving. 

    I can turn on "avoid tolls." Two problems with that: 1) if the regular route is going to take an hour longer (this has happened) it would be nice to know that, and 2) if I forget to turn off "avoid tolls" and then go elsewhere in the country, Waze will take me off a toll road that I would be happy to take and instead put me on city streets and/or route me miles out of the way (this has happened).  

    It sure would be nice if Waze treated Hot Lanes and adjacent regular lanes as two different routes and made it easier to choose between them based on understanding the different trip times/costs. To minimize phone fiddling while driving, it would be great if there was an audible choice, e.g., "in half a mile, take the hot/express lanes for $10 to save 20 minutes." Another option I've heard suggested is to be able to set a minimum time savings or some other simple cost/benefit criteria for taking toll roads. At a minimum, for me, having the "avoid tolls" button more accessible would be helpful. 

    I don't know how much of my problem applies to people in other parts of the country/world, but I've heard a lot of complaints from people in the DC area, such that they avoid using navigation apps due to this kind of lack of useful information.

    “Avoid difficult intersections” option is available in Navigation settings.

16. Keep turn alerts on the screen!

    In the past if I had to turn off the main road to the left in 10 Km - I would have a left arrow on the screen showing 10 Km with the number decreasing as I approach the turn.
    For the past couple of years you've changed things around that on every approaching junction the left arrow turns to a straight arrow - making me fully confused as to how far my turn is.
    As a result of this change I have already missed many turns that I should have taken, because I was not properly prepared ahead of time to move to the left lane, or know how far the correct turn is.
    This is very frustrating and annoying. I really don't understand why I need to be alerted when to continue straight when I should constantly be shown when my turn is.

    Please bring back the old way of navigation!

17. Using Waze app in areas other than major highways!

    We are in Waterford Michigan and we love to use the Waze app when we go up north to our cottage and also to Canada to see our family. I see everybody using Waze on major highways and thorough fairs, but as soon as you get off the highway on two lane asphalt roads with police hiding, no one seems to be using their Waze app! You might wanna consider contacting some users and encouraging the group to use Waze on these roads, because a ticket is a ticket! When we get off the highway and have to drive another hour, or through these types of roads, we hardly see any people using Waze, so it loses its effectiveness… If everyone would ban together and keep using Waze on these off highway roads, we would all benefit!

18. In Chicago, the Kennedy reversible lanes should be updated in real time using www.kennedyexpresslanes.com data

    Routing would be better if www.kennedyexpresslanes.com data were checked every few minutes.

19. Update algorithms for common sense

    I travel to work on a 4 lane divided highway. Same car, same route, same phone, every day. I continually get that damned CHIRP as I'm driving 80 mph down the divided highway and it will recalculate, thinking I've somehow made a miraculous 90 degree turn to the right, at 80 mph, and it thinks it has to recalculate my route. 1) how about you put some common sense into your algorithms, that will figure "this vehicle has been on this highway for xx miles, it hasn't slowed down any...so it must not be turning onto the side street". 2) can you FINALLY give us the option to TURN OFF THAT DAMNED CHIRP??? It should be an easy thing - put a tick-box in the settings page. Simple. Or, just have it turn off when the user switches to "alerts only". Thank you.

20. Heads up display issues

    I regularly use Android Auto which integrates nicely with my BMW's heads up display. When using Waze, there are two issues I notice immediately. The first are the suggested lanes is not displayed, yet Google Maps will show the lanes. Also, when a specific font is used, the characters don't show correctly. Instead I get question marks. I have images to share, but don't know how through this site.
