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.Desenvolver opções para navegação de taxis como:

Waze para Motocicletas (Waze for Motorcicles)
Em São Paulo, no Brasil, há um grande número de motociclistas que utilizam o Waze diariamente, como eu. Porém, o navegador recalcula as rotas conforme o trânsito de carros, o que não é interessante para nós, devido aos corredores de motos (faixas entre os carros). Por isso, gostaria de sugerir que fosse criado um modo especial para motos, que pode ser dentro do próprio programa, que não recalcule as rotas da mesma maneira que faz para os carros. No caso, recalcularia somente em casos de bloqueios ou acidentes. Desde já, agradeço e parabenizo pelo aplicativo, que nos ajuda muito!

Temporary private roads <-> RTC
Concerning roadworks, city nowadays more and more define areas around the closed roads as temporary private roads to route traffic around the closed areas. Now we have no there solution but to close those roads also, but this results in many URs stating that the roads are not closed for the inhabitants or customers of the businesses located there. Would it be possible to create a sort of RTP (Realtime Private road) like the closures we have now?

Please remove from your street listing Canada Road, between Woodside Road and I280 in Woodside, CA 94062, not appropriate for commuters
Please remove from your street listing Canada Road, between Woodside Road and I280 in Woodside, CA 94062, this two lane country road is not appropriate for commuters. It has not stop lights, and only two stop signs. Long lines of cars block up this street during evening commute hours.

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…

TAKE OUT POLICE REPORTED AHEAD.
Police reports makes the drivers alert at that short particular moment. Especially those inconsiderate drivers who drives near the divider fast and cut in to the other lane opposite to what they used to speed forward. This MAKES THE JAM WORSE! INCONSIDERATE DRIVERS SHOULD BE PUNISHED SO THAT THEY LEARN.

Problem with Waze directions.
People are trespassing on my property saying Waze is directing them there, They are trying to get to trails in Horsepen Run in Sterling VA.20165 The only access is to turn North at the Algonkian Parkway and Westmoreland Drive intersection. There is no public access permitted on Askegren's Lane. It is my private driveway. Thanks

Use Waze to help fight traffic by including tips encouraging the Zipper Merge (merging every other car), not rubber necking, etc.
It seems like a lot of people don't know how to merge. So you're forced to wait for a gap or force your way into a lane. Waze could be very helpful to build better driving habits. These tips could be sent via message or when the app is opened.

How do I stop Waze from suggesting a route everyday that I Do Not want to take.
Waze tells me to take this back road everyone I leave my house and I want it to stop!
How can I change this?
It may be 'techinically' the fastest route, but what it doesn't know is that it is a very scary, windy, hilly, one lane back road that people barrel down and I don't ever want to take it.
I thought Waze was smart and would recognize my 'usual' routes, but it has not figured out that I don't like this road.
Ever.

Option to avoid country lanes in UK.
They are annoying to me and rarely Eta gets amended when I avoid them.
An option to avoid them would make me actually use Waze again.

make alerts omnidirectional
Alert users to incidents on both sides of the road when there is no divider on the road. On two lane highways voice alerts for police and accidents are directional. Meaning it only alerts you to reports that were made in the direction you are traveling. It should alert you to all reports on the road regardless of which direction you’re heading. Helpful for police and accidents when they could affect both lanes.

Incomplete heads up display info On Lincoln Nautilus 2024
Thanks for the new update 5.4 which allows Waze to be displayed on the built in heads up /instrument cluster.
However the direction box in the top right corner only gives the distance and not the street names or correct lane for the next turning. Because of this will need to look at the main infotainment thus rendering the heads up/ built in display information incomplete and confusing. Please add the complete information on the heads up display so that it is usable.2 votes -
Events should have more control over closures
Since events don't always start on time and rarly end on time, there should be an easier way to update all closures:
A. After defining the dates & times of an event, all closures will inharit it name and times. This will save most of the work handling a large event.
B. Closures who are part of an event will not get deleted when their time is up, but will stay "inactive" for at least a week.
C. Updating the times of an event will update the times of all closures who's time had been inharited…1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

This application needs a closer accurate navigation were you are driving and show more patterns in the lane instead of the purple line covering the whole track when traveling. Last one I want to suggest is make a new option of someone wants to avoid highways and drive only on normal roads.

multiple ideas
- when navigating, esp. for Uber, Waze takes me to alleys for the destination address, not to the actual street
- why doesn't Waze show one way street direction with arrows on map?
- is there a way to stop directing me to turn left onto/cross a busy street with no stop signs or lights?
- can the step by step directions show the destination address as well as the checkered flag?
- show ahead of time which lane to be in for all off-ramps on highways

Location Correction/Change/Adjustment
It would be very nice to have the ability to correct or change the road we are driving on. If at any point we deviate from a GPS route (exit the highway early or late, enter an HOV lane, get or stay on an express road), we need to have the ability to adjust our location on the map so the route can update.
How to achieve this:
I'm thinking we could select our vehicle on the map (currently, this pulls up our "current location"), then - select an option to "adjust route" (call it whatever you want), this…2 votes -
