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! -
Minimize alerts on carplay
When alerts pop up on CarPlay they block visibility of arrival/hrs/mi but more importantly the upcoming route information. This forces the user to interact with the alert if they want to see any of that information and therefore is probably providing erroneous data in addition to being difficult to navigate as a user.

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.

Danger Area
I suggest creating a dangerous areas alert feature as slums, streets or dangerous areas, with danger degree (high, medium or low) for assault, burglary, vandalism, etc. And the system always warn approach. The user can configure whether you want a route that deviates from the area or not, as you prefer the user.

Audio alerts without voice guidance
For routine drives (to and from work), I don't want voice guidance, but I would still like to get audio alerts for traffic issues, etc. There should be an option to enable voice alerts without voice guidance.

I vote for the route in the center of the screen on android car audio
On android car radio the route is not in the center of the screen. Moreover - it is on the right side of the screen, at the maximum distance from the driver. It is very uncomfortable! Fix it please!

Additional alert ideas
For a hazard option, please add person on the side of the road. It would also be helpful to be able to put car on the left side of the road on an interstate, location of objects on the road, and the location of a car crash on the road.

Additional Warning/Alert
Having an option to report an unsafe driver or other warnings that may occur on an interstate. Often we see cars that maybe driving at an excessive speed, swerving, semis that don't have loads strapped down, etc and it would be nice to have a place where these could be reported for other wazers.

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

Stop alerting drivers to automated enforcement cameras.
When you alert drivers to upcoming automated enforcement cameras, you defeat the purpose of this lifesaving technology. The purpose of the cameras is for drivers to receive a warning or a summons, and permanently alter their speeding or red light running behavior. By offering these alerts, Waze encourages drivers to continue driving recklessly. It is the most anti-social thing your company does.

Police (Median)
We need a “Police (Median)” alert that warns traffic in both directions on an interstate. Police (hidden) and Police (other side) don't always apply. This alert would warn traffic in both directions of the interstate or divided highway, since most police run front and rear radars simultaneously.
