Add an alert for wildfires in a area and heavy smoke covering the roadway.
This could help unknowing drivers from potentially driving into a dangerous or even life-threatening situation.

While talking in the car I often miss the prompt. You should have a warning signal prior to the prompt so it isn't missed.
A beep or some sort of signal prior to the prompt would alert you to the upcoming prompt.

Don't limit the number of reports that can be submitted, limit the points given instead. Better to have more current info avail for drivers.
Today I exceeded my limit for the number of reports I could submit. I was not aware there was a limit, but this happened just as I was trying to report an accident on the freeway. I am on the roads early each morning and would think the more info submitted for the rush hour the better. Instead of limiting how many reports can be submitted, if abuse is a concern, why not just limit the points that can be earned from submitting points within a certain amount of time. I was very disappointed that I was not able to …

Speed Limit Alerts for Commercial Vehicles
In the UK speed limits for public light goods (commercial) vehicles are different, so for example on national speed-limit A-roads, cars are allowed to do 60mph, but commercial vehicles like panel vans, can only do 50mph. It’s to do with the increased payloads they potentially carry.
This differential isn’t catered for in the app, so when it’s set to alert when the speed limit is reached, a van driver in many cases is actually 10mph over which is enough of a margin to receive an endorsement in the UK.
The speed differences for light goods vehicles are however standardised: they…

Reports Overlapping
Reports overlap because it may be two stalled cars within a certain distance. I feel that report availability/functionality should be disabled until a certain distance has passed.

Alert for Malta: illegal dumping and incorrect rubbish disposal.
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to propose a feature that could help address a growing environmental and community issue in Malta: illegal dumping and incorrect rubbish disposal.
Malta operates a door-to-door waste collection system where residents must place specific rubbish bags outside on designated collection days. Unfortunately, illegal dumping and the use of incorrect rubbish bags have become increasingly common. In many cases especially in apartment blocks or busy residential streets it is extremely difficult to identify who disposed of the waste incorrectly. While fines and regulations exist, enforcement is often ineffective because authorities lack sufficient data or evidence.

Waze Unplanned Road Closure Alerts
Would it be possible for Waze developers to notify user of an unplanned route closure the moment point A and destination are entered? Having entered work destination (using multiple interstates), ware tried to reroute me may times to alternate roads - the MOMENT I logged on. It turned out the Interstate was closed 15 miles ahead, and I was stuck for 2 hours. If Waze knows the road has an issue along the route, an alert upon destination entry (like IMRIX) would be most helpful.

road ahead preview button
I would like to have an on map button which, on hold or on press, will zoom out the map to show the entire route ahead.
Releasing or pressing again will go back to regular nav mode.
This is great for getting a sense of the route and not having to be constantly alert to input from the client (visual or auditory).
Thanks,

Lower speed threshold setting
All of the speed threshold settings are for at or above the speed limit. By the time the alert goes off I am already breaking the speed limit. It would be nice to set a threshold like 3 or 5 mph below the speed limit to prevent ever going over.

Earlier notifications of traffic jams. Needs to be alerted minimum 15 miles before an incident
Sitting in a traffic jam of about 10 miles that could’ve been avoided by an earlier notification of an incident causing a major backup. Minimum alert of 15-20 miles. Germany has it with the autobahn.

Traffic alerts
I think I will be a good idea for the app to have traffic alerts. Not just saying traffic reported ahead. Based on the speed limit the app to tell you to slow down because of traffic. It will be extremely useful on highways. For example, a kilometer ahead to display/announce such warning and recommendation to slow down. Therefore, drivers will not have to stop abruptly and accidents might be prevented.
