Waze User Alert Network
How about a feature that can alert you to other oncoming waze user vehicles, on countryroads for an example? It would be very handy where accidents happen alot because of tight roads and bends.

Set by default speed limit for all country and city/town/metro area, for each segment
adding automatically speed limits for each segment in all metro zones/cities/towns and all over the country,
this limits can be approved and coordinated with all community managers.
and if in one city is a segment with a different speed limit, any local editors change speed limits value

When in average speed check zones, display the average speed you have been driving at.
This is less so designed for people abusing the system but more if you are averaging 53 in a 50 by mistake and want to know what speed to lower it

A bug in mode android auto. The warning on speed camera
When I pass a speed camera the warning bubble doesn't close automatically and stay on. So I have constant warning and do not know if it is the old one or there is a new one

Incline or decline alert
When approaching a significant incline or decline it would be great to get an alert. Sometimes you can be driving along a country lane at 60mph and suddenly there is a crest of a hill and a step decline with no warning. Very dangerous

Opening Music Controls in Landscape obscures the speed limit and speedometer
When using the app in landscape, opening the Music Controls will open on the left hand side, which then obscures the Speed Limit indicator and some of the speedometer.
It would be much better if it moved the speed limit to be down next to the speedometer, and didn't obscure either. Or, even better, if it moved the speed limit and the speedometer to the upper right corner!
Or better still, let us choose where to put these UI elements so we can improve information density and readability! As a motorcycle user, I only use this app…

Update feature request unlimited alert comments
Please read and vote and share!!
Unlimited comments on alerts, get rid of the maximum number of 5 comments per alert so important information is not blocked from being shared. Like what happened to me when I was trying to share a traffic update on a alert that had 5 comments on it and I was unable to share the update with others.

Make camera/police notification distance speed dependent
In low speed zones, there will be a notification for a camera coming up in 600 meters. That's way too far: at 50kph, I'll have forgotten about it by the time I get there.
The other way around, 600 meters might be too short on a highway, at high speed (especially if the camera/speedtrap is reported slightly ahead of where it actually is)

Improve spoken voice prompts speed
I often find that when driving at speeds faster than 50mph and approaching roundabouts(slowing down of course) off slip roads from dual carriageways/ Motorways often the voice prompts are to slow in mentioning in what turn I need resulting in me needing to go around the roundabout twice to understand the given direction or as the case in the last few days actually being told which turn whilst on the roundabout going past the turn I needed!!
Please look into this as my Garmin unit still gets used a lot because of this problem making it sometimes unsafe to…

Anti-Rubbernecking Alert: Active voice prompt to prevent "curiosity" traffic jams
The Problem:
One of the main causes of heavy traffic jams on highways is drivers slowing down to look at car accidents ("rubbernecking"), even when the accident is on the shoulder or a completely different lane and does not block the traffic flow. This behavior creates "phantom traffic jams" that waste millions of driving hours and increase the risk of secondary rear-end collisions.The Solution (Feature Request):
Develop a smart, location-based alert system that activates when the following conditions are met:Detection: Waze's algorithm detects a significant slowdown near a reported accident, but also recognizes (via user reports or historical…

Bring back the speed limit indicator that was taken away and more celebrity voices more often
Bring back speed limit option. It was very handy now it's gone. Also I'd like more celebrity voices more often.

Alert popup windows cover vital information
On android auto, the alert popup windows cover vital information such as time to reach destination and which lane to pick at the next crossroad. This is very annoying and potentionaly dangerous.
This does not happen on the phone display, even thought it is much smaller then the cars display.Could this be fixed so that the popup window would not cover other informations?
Thank you

Incorporate a simple view. With speed, distance to next turn and direction of next turn.
When driving at night, all I need to know is my speed, distance to the next turn and direction to turn.
(ETA would of course be nice to see with smaller text.)
I use Hudway Trip for that, but I really prefer WAZE.5 votes -
Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.
Subject: Request to restore Red color for Speed and Red Light Camera pop-up banners.
Message:
I am writing to provide feedback regarding the recent change to the pop-up warning banners for speed and red light cameras. These alerts were previously Red but have recently changed to a dark gray/black color in Night/Dark mode.
I strongly urge you to revert these alerts back to Red for the following safety reasons based on driving psychology and neuroscience:
Visual Saliency (The "Pop-Out" Effect): Studies show that the human brain has a "Saliency Map" that scans for high-priority colors. Red triggers stronger…3 votes -

Additional Warning/Alert
Having an option to report an unsafe driver or other warnings that may occur on an interstate. Often we see cars that maybe driving at an excessive speed, swerving, semis that don't have loads strapped down, etc and it would be nice to have a place where these could be reported for other wazers.

life saving alert - lights on vocal alert. you already move to night mode , why not alerting drivers to turn lights on
Waze already moves to night mode at twilight zone.
a voice alert to rremind drivers to turn lights on is life saving and so simple.2 votes -
specify speed limit menu report
I think the app should have a quick menu for speed limit reports when clicking the speedometer or something. When the menu shows up it will have some specific value that the user can choose and the editor doesn't need to comment on the report ticket
