Report to Multiple Groups
When reporting a traffic jam or something like that, I'd like the possibility of reporting the incident to all the groups I belong to, and not just one of them

Share Scoreboard Info on Facebook
None of the current sharing options for Facebook are appealing to me and the people I know using the client. We would love to share when we hit certain milestones and/or have weekly reports of our Waze Scoreboard progress. This allows us to share Waze with our Facebook friends without revealing our locations (road reports, directions to where we are going). I think sharing these achievements would be the quickest/most effective way to promote Waze on Facebook

Points ticket no longer working on latest Blackberry version
On the Blackberry, the latest version (2.0.2.3) no longer shows the point ticker when collecting points. When you look under View My Points the New Points section is blank. That said it still does seem to be counting new points just not showing them anywhere.

Add option to resize the screen allowing to see all members of a team in special color 4 better view
This option will allow a member of a team to see in a much more easy way, where are the other members of his team.
Another side of this option, could be a live interface on web,... where a member could see the others members of a team.3 votes -
have client generate text file of all unallowed moves while driving to view on computer
I know the system technically does this automatically but I was thinking today as I was going through the cartouche fixing every intersection in my hometown, how it'd be handy if the client generated a text file showing all the things you did that you "shouldn't" have. Almost every intersection in my area has restricted turns that simply don't exist (it's a small town, there's only one turn restriction and no one ways, so i realize this is easier than most) but I was thinking it'd be handy if I could open a txt file generated by the client that says "Turn from First street to Main street not allowed in cartouche". This would then make it much easier to know what intersections need fixed and what ones don't. As I said, I know the client does this automatically, but it also requires repeated input to confirm it's not any number of errors that can occur, but I thought this would be a handy for us that are vigilant map editors.

It would be nice if the Waze app would bring back animal “sightings” or hazard notifications since in rural Canada this can be very much so
It would be nice if the Waze app would bring back animal “sightings” or hazard notifications since in rural Canada this can be very much so beneficial for moose, deer sightings etc.

Police points
Can you give points for a police officer only after it’s been “liked” or “confirmed” by someone else. It seems a lot of people randomly report police when no one is there and I feel like it’s just for points. Like I’m literally driving and out of nowhere it pops up on my alerts right in front of me but there’s no cop present. Also if there’s one cop can you set a proximity alert so people don’t report like 5 of the same cop.

For fog/mist, instead of making it a certain spot like a traffic camera or police, make it like traffic where is covers a stretch of road

Real-Time "Reckless Driver" Alert to Improve Road Safety
A proposal to introduce a new reporting category that allows users to alert others about reckless or dangerous driving in real-time, enabling nearby drivers to take precautionary measures and prevent accidents.
The Problem:
Reckless drivers (excessive speeding, weaving between lanes, aggressive tailgating) pose an immediate threat to everyone on the road. Currently, law-abiding drivers have no way of receiving an early warning about a dangerous vehicle approaching them. In many cases, this lack of awareness leads to severe accidents that could have been avoided if drivers had a few seconds to react.Proposed Solution:
Add a new report type under the "Report" menu: "Reckless Driving."
Reporting: A simple tap to record the location and time of the incident.
Alerting Others: Drivers within a specific radius (e.g., 1–2 km ahead of the reporter on the same route) will receive a voice and visual alert: "Caution: Reckless driving reported ahead. Stay alert and keep to the right lane."Mitigating False Reports (Quality Control):
To prevent misuse or "spam" reports, the feature can include the following safeguards:
User Trust Score: The ability to report reckless driving would be restricted to veteran users with high "Waze Points" or established credibility (e.g., Waze Warrior level and above).Multi-User Verification: An alert will only be broadcasted to the wider community if at least two or three independent users report the same behavior within a short timeframe.
The Benefit:
Saving Lives: Giving drivers a few seconds to slow down or move to the right lane can be the difference between a collision and a "near miss."Enhanced Safety Awareness: This aligns with Waze’s mission of "outsmarting traffic together" by adding a critical layer of proactive safety.
Data for Authorities: Aggregated data on frequent reckless driving zones can help traffic enforcement prioritize high-risk areas.
I believe this feature would be a significant step forward in making our roads safer for the entire Waze community.

Improved Speed Limit Visibility for Weak Eyesight
I recently switched to Waze and like it a lot, but due to weak eyesight I find it hard to read the speed limit on my phone when mounted in the car. Please add an option to enlarge the speed limit sign or hide my speed and show only a larger road speed limit for better visibility.

Hazard Alert: Car On Inside Shoulder
When I am driving on I-10 through Texas, there are a lot of times cars that are pulled over on the left side next to the barricade on the inside shoulder. I would like to be able to distinguish which side the car is on when the alert comes up and not guess if its on the right outside shoulder or inside left.
