Calculate speed of travel adjusted for vehicles turning around
This morning I was caught in a traffic jam in which we traveled 1 mile in 24 minutes. The app was showing travel speed for the area of 8-12 mph at the time because of the number of vehicles exiting the traffic jam to turn around or cutting out of the traffic through side streets. This causes inaccuracy in the eta and may have resulted in routes 'b' or 'c' being faster. Since the GPS is estimated based on location is it not possible to make a change to the system that removes one car length of distance from…

If you could add Natural Gas to the fuel type filters that would be awesome!
Would be great to add CNG and LNG to the fuel type filter for those of us driving CNG VEHICLES.

When a warning appears, show a shrinking progress bar (regress bar, closing-in bar?)
When a warning appears (hazard, police, vehicle on shoulder, traffic), show a shrinking progress bar (regress bar, closing in bar?), perhaps with distance number also. The current tiny numbers are hard to read, require too much attention, and give no feel for the approach rate. Waze assumes perfect close and medium vision too often. If there are several: unclear, but I suppose focus on nearest.

Add Support for Mopeds, Bicycles & Moped Speed Checks (Known as Rollerbanks)
I suggest adding support for mopeds and bicycles as selectable vehicle types in Waze, allowing users to receive more accurate routes tailored to bike lanes and moped-accessible roads. Additionally, introducing a report option for roadside speed checks specific to mopeds (commonly known as "rollerbanks" in some regions) would greatly benefit two-wheeler users by improving route awareness and promoting fair, transparent traffic monitoring.

Radar de velocidade média - average speed radar
It would be interesting, in these new “average speed” radars, that along the section in question, the green progression bar that appears in the application on the left side would turn red whenever the vehicle exceeds the allowed average. Here's the tip.
Seria interessante, nestes novos radares de “velocidade média”, que ao longo do troço em questão, a barra de progressão verde que aparece na aplicação do lado esquerdo passasse a vermelho sempre que o veículo ultrapassasse a média permitida. Fica a dica.

Please add more options to your incident reporting tool
When you go to report an incident currently you can only report Police. This means that whenever someone reports police it may not be the police. A lot of the time it’s a highways agency vehicle or vosa. Can you please add the following options:
Ambulance
Fire
Vosa
Highways agency

Simplify reporting procedures
Too many button pushes are required to report a hazard, especially a vehicle broken down on the curb , and to report Police. Could we have 2 buttons on the Nav screen which only requires one push.

Adapt routes and ETA to the choice of a user's max speed
More and more of us, for economic or ecological reasons, or simply because our vehicle does not allow us to, self-limit and not drive at more than 100 km/h or 90 km/h, even on the highway.
It would be good if when searching for a route, we could define a Max speed for the vehicle and that the calculation of the different routes takes this into account.
A route on a road limited to 100 km/h, usually abandoned in favor of a route using a highway limited to 130 km/h could even become faster as soon as the driver decides…4 votes -
Show bridge height
Not once, I've heard of trucks getting into accidents by hitting a bridge that is too low to the vehicles height.
Why not display the bridges on the route and their height to prevent those type of accidents?130 votes -

Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest an important improvement to the app: adding a button at the beginning of each drive to select the type of vehicle – such as private car, truck, commercial vehicle, bus, etc.
As a truck driver, I often get directed to roads that are not suitable for heavy vehicles – including narrow streets, bridges with height restrictions, or roads where commercial vehicles are prohibited. These situations cause delays, frustration, and sometimes even safety hazards.
I believe this feature would greatly enhance the user experience and allow for more personalized and…

Press spot on map
Many times I'm too late to grab my phone to report something I saw a quarter or a half a mile back or for instance I can see police activity in the morning Outside my home where speed traps are set up yeti'm not in my vehicle and would do no justice to anyone reporting from my driveway there needs to be a way where you can hit a spot or location on the map and make a report to drivers about ongoing activities. You can be working in your office building looking out the window and seeing police pulling…

Auto speed adjustment integration with cruise control and auto brake function. On highways only.
Because of fuel burned, brake pads worn, and accidents during traffic on highways and frustration of stopping on a highway for apparently no reason at all.
Wake has enough data on the highway to integrate with auto manufacturers Cruise Control and auto braking function to keep all traffic flowing a almost constant speed. Without the concertina effect caused by human speed adjustment error. Humans will never fully trust or do not want to wait for or would possibly even afford a self driving car.
This system would only be available on highly congested highways to keep the flow of vehicle…3 votes -
switch between car (diesel) and/or motorbike (gas+ztl) to compare times and costs
I use WAZE to drive either my car and my motorbike. Car is diesel, motorbike is gas: But I cannot save more than one vehicle. Moreover, motorbikes have usually no restriction in accessing central areas. That means I can "say" to have several LTZ permits whenever I use motorbike, but I must remember to delete all of them, as they aren't valid when I'm using the car.

Optimize/Differentiate routes between cars and motorcycles
Not all Waze users are power users or tech literate (as well as I who, after a year, only saw that there is Vehicle Details setting and you could choose Vehicle type). Please let new users set their vehicle type as they use the app. I understand that there are people who switch between car and motorcycle, but this will at least let you optimize the routes knowing they’re for cars or motorcycles. I experienced a lot of dead ends only because the path is only for motorcycle size; and nearly crossed uncrossable roads being for 4x4s or trucks only.

Calculate ETA based on own average speed
ETA calculation seems to be based on traffic conditions and general average speed. ETA calculation seems to be inaccurate when driving below the average speed of the road-segment as it keeps increasing while driving with constant (low) speed.
It would be great if ETA calculation would also be accurate for vehicles going below average speeds (e.g. trucks in europe etc.)

Waze is a good app, but as a truck driver, it does not offer the option for commercial vehicles to avoid low bridges or parkways. If this feature was added, it would make the app more useful for everyone. I would like to see this capability added and updated in Waze.

calculated average speed of average speed segment
There are some road segments which have average speed cameras. Almost always the human beings unable to calculate average speed, so instead they simply don't exceed the enforced speed, the max speed, not average. In case if there are obstructions, slow vehicles, turning vehicles in the average speed segment, the real average speed may fall significantly below what was requested by Road Code rules.
Please add indicator of calculated average speed of passing of the current average speed segment32 votes -
Comunication with other vehicles
Hi! I think it would be great If we could talk to the car behind us and the car in front of us, in case of something unexpected happend.
Or maybe with vehícles near where we are.
I’m not going to read the others posts , sorry If someone post it before.3 votes
