Feature Request - Add the ability to reach out to the community for help in a breakdown or accident
A topic came up in a FB motorcycle group about ways to signal to other users that you need help. Perhaps you ran out of gas, have a flat, or some other issue that requires tools. I carry tools with me on my bike to fix most issues that could arise. Although I look for helmets on pavement or some indication that a Wazer might be in need of help, it would be easier to have a Pulsing icon on my route map that easily identifies anyone that may be in need of assistance.
It's a nice way to ensure…

I think we all need our favorite dad to tell us if we're going the right way or not.

Road Condition Rating/Grades
Showing potholes is a great feature especially in snowy climate. It would also be great to rate the road and conditions. Such as a block feature or an avoidance feature. I traveled 20mph on a road label 50mph due to how terrible the conditions was, it felt like I hit a speed bump every 40 yards. I would label this road a "D", if I could avoid these roads like a less than "C" feature, that would be awesome. User ratings paired with GPS acceleration compared to the speed limit could really help avoid these disastrous neglected road and pick…

Hola, debido a el aumento de precios y que a los conductores les bajaron el pago, toda la comunidad que tenemos contacto en un grupo que usa
Hola, debido a el aumento de precios y que a los conductores les bajaron el pago, toda la comunidad que tenemos contacto en un grupo que usabamos nos vemos en la necesidad de irnos por nuestra cuenta y desinstalar la app, pues ya no conviene, además de que ya no la recomendaremos, diciendo a las personas que hagamos lo mismo con nuestros conocidos. Sin embargo, si se les paga a los conductores lo justo, conviene más, y hablo como raider, a mi no importa que me cobren 20 o 30 pesos, me conviene, pero a ellos no les conviene. Ojalá…

Wrong way driver alert
Wrong way driver alert. Alert wazers if they enter a freeway on ramp going in the wrong direction also alert other wazers with a loud audible alarm (much like the Amber alert alarm) that there is a wrong way driver approaching.

Public Bathroom Button
Have a button that when pushed routes drivers to the nearest public bathroom and then returns to route once done with the bathroom. I've seen other suggestions that are related, but I think it needs to be something really simple because the bathroom issue usually comes up when someone says "we need to stop NOW" and it's never at a convenient time!

Bring back "All Reports"
Please bring back the "All Reports" functionality. This feature existed in the original Waze interface but was removed in the newest iteration (as of October 2015).
I used the All Reports tab to keep track of nearby accidents, police officers, and hazards before and during every trip. It was the tool I regularly used to get an overview of what my morning and evening commutes would look like, as I travel over 50 miles each way to work.

Route Preview Option
You select a route, then press the "Route Preview" button. Map view will then zoom to your current location and travel down the selected route as if you were driving. The map pans down the route so that you can see all the things you will be dealing with along the way without having to scroll around the map with your finger. Adding a "preview speed (1x, 2x, 3x, etc)" and a "pause preview" option would be a great addition to this.

New instructions for crossroad junctions/interchange
In the UK, there has been an ongoing debate on the most effective way to map crossroad junctions where drivers have to cross a main road without priority, as shown in this image:
https://imgur.com/bpKJi9RThe default instructions do not include guidance for routes that go straight, leading to URs for missing instructions even when no turns are required. As there's no instruction, the driver may not realise they have to give way/stop, leading to a potential accident.
If we were to add a "Continue" instruction, it may imply priority, which is not the case, and again, this may lead to…

Please add an Electric Motorcycle vehicle type!
You have an option for Electric Vehicles, and for Motorcycles. But what about Electric Motorcycles?! I have a 2021 Zero SR/S - but there are many other models and brands of electric motorcycles now - LiveWire, Energica, Sondors, Surron, etc! Zero has been making electric motorcycles for ~13 years now in CA. Right now I have to choose whether I want EV relevant info, or motorcycle relevant info in the Waze app. Please consider adding a Electric Motorcycle vehicle type for us lucky users, in this growing market segment!

Keep Santa Claus voice all year round
I’m a recent Waze User - started using Waze just before Christmas - I just love the Santa Claus voice - so funny and upbeat- I put it on even though I know where I’m going
This morning I am all set to have Santa guide me to work and he’s gone,
The other voices are so boring - I’m sorry to say - and that Boy Band voice is the most annoying

Import map road closures from official sources
Automatically import road closures from official government sources available on the web.
In my area there are several government website that report road closures during storms or natural disasters. Scripts could be built to get the information from the web page, and automatically close/open/update road closures.

Place Photos
To report a Place via the client, the user is required to first take a photo before entering any details.
This process should be changed as it:
discourages Wazers from adding a Place if it is dark/raining or other factors prevent them from taking a satisfactory photo, and;
results in ineffective photos (blurry, dark, inappropriate) being added which do not fulfil the intended purpose of assisting other Wazers to identify the Place.
Making Photos optional when adding a Place, and adding the ability to upload from the Camera Roll/Computer/etc, would improve the Waze map by enabling Wazers to add Places…
