Traffic notifications while using CarPlay
In CarPlay when a notification comes up you're forced to react to it with a gesture input to clear it or until another notification comes up. This is frustrating as unless you clear the notification it will permanently prevent viewing other trip information. You can be WELL past the location of the notification and it still remains up unless you physically clear it. Surly it should automatically clear itself once the notification is no longer relevant without a drivers input.

Animate rotary (traffic circle or roundabout) junctions
Animate the car icon when travelling around rotary junctions. Please.
At present the map swings around when travelling around a rotary junction. It can be easy to miss an exit when using rotary junctions with many exits. The moving map, as it swings around can cause confusion when to exit.
Other vendors have overcome this issue by keeping the map orientation fixed to the direction of travel across the rotary junction and instead animating the car icon moving around the rotary junction on the map. This makes it very easy to see when your exit is nearby.2 votes -
Tom Hiddleston
I suggest using Tom Hiddleston's voice for navigating. It would make the travel in traffic worthwhile.

Various suggestions taken from other systems
Hello everyone,
after a period where I have been a passenger of friends and colleagues ( due to surgery ) I decided to write down what, in my opinion, can be insights to further improve this navigation system.As a first suggestion ( I copy the idea from AmiGo ) is to make the indication of the speed limit and current speed more intuitive and readable by using colors inside the speedometer. The idea of verbally indicating the speed of speed cameras can also be very helpful.
The second point I would like to suggest ( this time the idea…

police
Please reinstate the "Police on Other Side" feature. Reporting speed traps is the most useful reason to report police, and traffic moving in opposite direction will always be better suited to identify and report.
87 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Implement a next/previous button in the notifications
When I stop a traffic light I read some notifications, but sometimes I haven't finished to read an important one and it changes to the next. So it will be usefull if I can navigate through this messages.

A way to block roads except for residents. Potentially during certain hours.
Massachusetts has quite a few areas with signs “residents only” or “local traffic only”, some during certain hours.

Reminder: time to take a break!
We suggest introducing notifications that would remind drivers to take a 10 minute break when they have driven for 2 hours non-stop, and after a 4 hour drive would suggest taking a 20 minute power nap.
Research by the Latvian Road Traffic Safety Directorate shows that 11,7% of drivers are at high risk of falling asleep, and 1/3 of all drivers have experienced falling asleep at the wheel for a second in the last year.
By reminding drivers how important it is to take breaks, Waze can help prevent tragic accidents and save lives.

“Avoid difficult intersections” option is available in Navigation settings. Should ease the issue if not eliminate it.

Fixbug where reporting traffic for instance while deviating from a turn by turn route places the reported event on the route not on the path
Fix the bug where reporting traffic for instance while deviating from a turn by turn route places the reported event on the route not on the path actually being followed (ie current location)

Inform about traffic slow downs before the exit instead of after you passed an exit and the next one is in the slowdown or stopped traffi.
On my trip home from the eclipse I was notified just after passing an open exit that there was a traffic slowdown. I almost turned up the exit ramp, but decided that continuing would be safer NOT. NEXT time that happens I will most likely break that law.

I want to be able to see hazards and traffic reports in the All Turns page.
My route is 60 mile long so the bar at there beginning of my route request shows a zillion hazards and traffic reports al bunched together. I'ld like to be able to easily select those reports before I begin my route to see the severity and weather I should alter my route. I also want to see these reports on the All Turns page.

Add option to stop scanning of reports when not moving.
Please add a possibility to stop scanning of reports when not moving. It can be annoying sometimes. I just want to observe surround streets while standing. And it also consumes additional traffic. Thank you.

Safe drive Motivators
Alongside with the pop-up commercials that appear once I stop on traffic light or something, you can occasionally add some "Safe Drive" motivators, like: "Slow down, somebody waits you back home". You know, to make people think for a sec about how they act on the road.

Traffipax idősávos 22h-6h sebességkorlátozás
Kedves waze egy weboldalnak a linkjét osztanám meg veletek ahol megtaláljátok Németország területén található traffipaxokat és a traffipaxok pontos leírását amiből értékes adatot nyerhetek. Az én észrevételem dresdenben belvárosában volt hogy az app jelezte a traffipaxot de hibás sebesség határt mutatott ugyanis a mi környékünkön elég sok hely van ahol esti korlátozás van érvényben este 22-6-ig 30km/h ezt kellene egyszer fejleszteni az app ban. a következő amit fejleszteni kellene hogy egy piros lámpa motívumot kellene rakni azokhoz a tafipaxok figyelmeztetéséhez ahol a trafi nem csak sebeséget mér hanem figyel piros lámpánál való megállást is amit persze ugyanezen a linken megtaláltok…

suggest removing hazard on side of road as this has no impact on traffic but people slow down because this is reported
hazards on road is good to report but if it is to the side of road, I see not point in this helping and in fact people will slow down for any hazard so this actually slows down traffic
