Soon turn notifications
I need sooner notice of a turn. With a 14’ trailer full of equipment I need sooner notifications of a turn. At 50 mph there is no way to stop or slow down when I have very little notice of a turn.
I need several notifications: 1/4 mile, 1500 feet, 1000 feet, 500 feet, 100 feet.
If there was a setting to set this it would help.

My sound automatically connects to my truck but will not play sound while I’m on Satellite Radio. The setting keeps changing. I set in setting to play through phone speaker. However it is changing itself.

Criação da opção Viagem
A opção viagem seria para o aplicativo entender que está em trânsito longo, pouca cobertura de sinal e fazer com que a rota não seja perdida durante as paradas. Nos momentos de pausa e abertura de outros aplicativos, a rota é perdida e isso prejudica o motorista e gasta bastante bateria procurando sinal e a rota que foi perdida anteriormente. Ao final da viagem, o usuário indicaria que chegou ao seu destino, e assim o aplicativo não precisaria mais manter as rotas em segundo plano por tempo indeterminado.

Automatic rerouting improvement
When creating a route on a highway with both "cars only" part and "trucks and buses" part Waze often leads me on the "trucks and buses" part of the highway for no reason (even though it's clearly stated in the settings that I drive a private car, not a truck or a bus). For example on I-95 highway in the north-eastern US.
Now when I'm aware of this problem I ignore Waze's directions and take the "cars only" part of the highway. It's faster in 99% of the cases.
However, for the next 30 miles (or even more) Waze suggests me to exit the highway, return all the way to the place where I entered the highway and enter the highway again to the "trucks and buses" lane. So I have to manually stop the route and start it over from the current position. It's a dangerous thing to do while driving.When creating a route on a highway with both "cars only" part and "trucks and buses" part Waze often leads me on the "trucks and buses" part of the highway for no reason (even though it's clearly stated in the settings that I drive a private car, not a truck or a bus).

Navigation using the intent "google.navigation:.." doesn't work
"google.navigation:q=$lat,$lng&mode=d"
We have an android application using this intent to start navigation. Until recently this feature had been working and users could choose which app to launch - GoogleMaps or Waze. Now, they are reporting Waze navigation is not working, but googlemaps navigation does. Why is waze reporting to system it supports this kind of intent when in fact it does not? Will it be fixed inside the Waze App?

allow for users to pin a point for fake police
In my area there police have been placing unmanned police cars at the side of the road as if using radar. These get marked as police and people really slow down. Which is a good thing, but sometimes people slow down under the speed. Please allow for a way to mark these as police decoys or something.

Suggestion on reporting police traps.
Many people incorrectly report police traps when on a major highway and there is a substantial divide between north and south lanes (woods or grass). An example is I am heading south and see a police vehicle hidden in the woods looking at northbound traffic. I have now way to select other side and hidden together. So people select hidden but it shows up to southbound traffic when in fact it should warn northbound traffic.
A few more choices/selections/modifiers in all categories would help pin dow types and location of issues.
I would love to be part of a Beta or test group when you consider updates or new features.

Allow waze users to report accidet/constractions on road/close road after I finishing "my route"
I propose to allow waze users to report on route accidet/constractions on road/close road after I finishing "my route"..
For now, I drove on the highway and my signed on the route exit was closed - there was constractions and wase didn't show that there was closure. I needed to pass this highway exit and to exit on the next one. I couldn't sing the closure becouse of driving, and after I finished "my route" I wanted to report about the cloused exit in waze for other users, but it didn't find this opportunity in the program. Maybe you can allow such options for better report and usage.I propose to allow waze users to report on route accidet/constractions on road/close road after I finishing "my route"..

permanent editor mood
I think you should create a level one editor mood that is permanent for inactive, former, or periodic editors. I enjoyed having the robot even after I stopped editing but because Waze changed the way those levels are granted and kept, I've been demoted for inactivity and stripped of the robot. So, Waze keeps the 5,000+ edits I did over the years but you gave me and any other editor the indignity of stripping us of a mood, something that costs them nothing. Rather than give access to the high-value moods to editors that have lost favor of Waze, why not create a level one editor mood?

Optimun Gas Fill up station and report
It would be very usegul to have a road map calculator to the most optimum gas station depending on the fuel consumption of your car (that you can report manually after each travel), depending of the gas price in eah station and depending of the traffic to reach that destination.
If you want to fill up just a couple of gallon it is not optimum to go to the cheapest one, instead you want to go to the nearest one, but if you want to go to fill a full tank it is more optimum to go to the cheapest one regardless of the fuel you are going to consume reaching there.
Also, it would be useful to add an optimum fel stop in the route you are planning. Whih is the most optimum place to deviate from your current travel to go to a specific gas station

Short Cut for reporting police
It would be super useful if you do what is necessary to allow people to create a short cut in apple short cut app for reporting police or other road incidents. It would be safer when using Apple CarPlay or your phone in being able perform that action quicker

Junction/Intersection numbers without active route
I drive on the motorway quite a lot and most of the time I know the way so I won't bother with setting a route.
However it would be great if, without a route being plotted, that Waze would display in the top left "Approaching XX junction"
