Constantly display on the map the roads that are painted red in order to avoid traffic jams based on the driver's knowledge of the roads and
I would like to address something that really bothers me about the service, and I think I really miss seeing the traffic congestion and traffic jams on the map at the same time, especially while navigating to my destination on the alternative routes that are possible for me to take, so that at any given time I can calculate a route and navigate to try to avoid traffic jams and congestion. Since when I want to see the current situation, there is no way to see if there are traffic jams and traffic jams on the routes, and I cannot…

Consecutive alerts within a short distance
At the moment, the Waze app provides alerts (such as hazard reports or speed/red light camera) approximately 400-500m away from the location. After driving past the report or camera, Waze doesn't check if there are any further alerts in the next 400-500m and as such, drivers miss out on this information.
An example is at the first traffic light, there is a red light camera, however after turning, the next traffic light (assuming it is relatively close/within 500m) also has a red light camera. Drivers currently only receive one alert for the first red light camera but not for the…

PLEASE PLEASE LISTEN TO US
PLEASE take Springdale RD, Oakdale Rd and Lullwater Atlanta 30307 off of your app. You are suggesting these very residential streets as cut throughs for traffic. This is bringing in way more traffic than our streets can handle AND (I believe) creating a spike in crime.

Better organized CarPlay screen for reporting traffic issues
Describing traffic issues while driving needs to be done quickly, so the driver isn’t distracted too long. I feel at least 20 buttons should be shown on the screen right away to report conditions, instead of 5 that ‘open’ into related scenarios. So 1st column is the 5 most important police issues, the 2nd column is the 5 most important emergency vehicle issues, the 3rd column is the 5 most important crash or stopped vehicle issues, the 4th column is the 5 most important road surface condition issues, and the 5th column is the 5 most important ‘other’ issues.

say im at a red light
My idea is for the waze app. I was using my waze and while I was driving and I stopped at a stop light. Waze asked me if I was stuck in traffic cause it noticed that I'm not moving and it doesn't let me say ithat im stuck at a red light.

Message a license plate
Hi there. How about if users register their license plates and so we could send "car-to-car" messages?! I see lights left turned on, open cars in parking lots, broken lights etc and with a feature like that I could tell the owner by "messaging his/her car", regardless any other info. Nice, huh?!

Dark and light modd
In Brazil, we need to drive on roads with the lights on. But when the lights are on, the waze change for the dark mode automatically, even though its day. A function to have a quicky trade in the mode will be very nice.

About large vehicles
Waze currently does not support heavy vehicles. However, large vehicles also cause traffic congestion, so it would be better to deal with them in the future.
Supporting larger vehicles allows you to collect more information. This information includes important information for understanding traffic conditions, such as the location and situation of traffic jams and road conditions.
Collecting this information allows Waze to provide you with more accurate traffic information. This allows drivers to avoid traffic jams or choose the best route if they are stuck in traffic.
However, supporting large vehicles also increases the burden on the server. Therefore,…

Rush Hour in Los Angeles
Rush Hour in Los Angeles: first, there are surprisingly few left turn light signals in Los Angeles (LA) at major intersections. second, especially at rush hour in LA (which is most of the time) it is next to impossible to make a left onto a major road or cross it without a traffic light or 4-way stop sign. third, if a route says there is 'heavy' traffic up ahead or traffic is 'at a standstill', route me a different way!
1 vote“Avoid difficult intersections” option is available in Navigation settings. Should ease the issue if not eliminate it.

Indicator Panel with Arrows and Traffic Directions and Street Names
Hi guys, I have a suggestion for you developers,
Could you make as a Show and Hide Option the "Indicator Panel with Arrows and Traffic Directions and Street Names" which is black in color,
And it's always there on the top left and it's huge and it covers a lot of the nav screen, top left, Could you make it like some sort of show and hide option.
This Information-Indicative Panel is rarely used and is not suitable to be always present on the display especially during long distances.

Traffic congestion on Live Map is getting in the way of the blue line for the route.
I'm not sure how to post screenshots on this site but the orange line signifying traffic congestion is on top of the blue line for the route. I think it should be more on the bottom layer.
