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.

I suggest using Tom Hiddleston's voice for navigating. It would make the travel in traffic worthwhile.

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

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.
91 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.

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.3 votes -

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.

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.
59 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

- precalculated routes to all of your saved places IS there
- all routes with 3 best variants, your preffered way is highlighted and Allways Shown, major issues highlighted
How it should be - sorry for not…

Take Rowena Ave. in Los Angeles off your suggested routes.
This street was never intended to be a major thoroughfare. The traffic is non-stop on this residential street and there are no lights to control the amount of traffic that has accumulated.

The speedometer has a black font with grey background which is very hard to read. The font should be white or a light colour

Eco mode
How about an Eco mode that would give you a warning beep if you accelerate or decelerate too fast or drive over the posted speed limit? Of course, the driving speed (for traffic) would need adjusted (because if you're driving 10 under the speed limit for MPG reasons that doesn't mean that there's traffic issues).

Offer the choice of motorcycle as the vehicle, because in the city we are faster than car.
The bike is faster than car in urban traffic. We disrupt statistics and info-traffic
2 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already has Motorcycle Mode included in the app. To change your vehicle type, tap Settings > Car Details > Vehicle type.
