Kangaroo Alert Feature for Australian Waze Users
I’d love to suggest adding a new alert option for kangaroo sightings near roads. In Australia, kangaroos are a significant cause of vehicle collisions, especially around dawn and dusk. It would be incredibly helpful if drivers could mark kangaroo sightings or active areas on the Waze map, just as they can mark hazards or police alerts.
This could appear as a small kangaroo icon, notifying nearby drivers to slow down or stay alert. It would improve safety for both drivers and wildlife, helping reduce collisions, injuries, and road damage.
Since Waze already supports user-reported hazards, this would fit…

An option to move the "average speed" pop up location
Currently the "average speed" pop up covers the speedometer, so there's no way of knowing what speed we're actually driving at until the popup disappears. Could you move the location of this popup or give us the ability to reposition the popup?

Would be good if Wazers could remove traffic jams as well as adding them. Sometimes I drive normal speed on a red road. It happens that the opposite direction is fluid but is shown red on Waze

Add Alert for Roadside Assistance Vehicles (Australia)
I’d like to suggest adding a specific alert or hazard option for stationary roadside assistance vehicles in Australia (e.g. RAA, tow trucks). A new rule in South Australia—and soon other states—requires drivers to slow down to 25 km/h when passing these vehicles displaying flashing amber lights.
Including a reportable category or automatic alert would help increase compliance, improve safety for roadside workers, and align with local road laws.

Speed camera notifications AFTER passing it
I think you should get rid of the notification that comes up with the little timer after you've passed a speed camera. It takes so long to go away and it's not convenient to press close so many times. Plus it's not useful what's the point you've passed it now

Traffic Alerts
Give drivers the option to manually enter a traffic incident ( police, speed camera etc) on the map rather than only allowing the them to report an incident on their tracking location. This can allow a driver to go a different direction or go past an incident and still enter an alert accurately for other drivers. Also allow an option for speed camera alone, because it is difficult to differentiate from police or a speed trap.

Speed Trap Advisory Pop-Up
I would like to see a pop up up advisory if I drive into a town/village where the entire town is a speed trap & police use LIDAR in random locations for traffic enforcement. This would give the user ample warning as this type of radar is difficult to detect. By the time you have visual on a police car, you’re already nabbed.

Option to see historical police presence/speed traps.
Option to see historical police presence/speed traps. If the area is frequented with reports then label it as a historical hot spot. This way we can drive cautiously in those locations.

Traffic lanes speed.
It would be useful to add this feature back to the Waze app because the speed of traffic segments is useful, so that we drivers can understand how intense the traffic is on certain sections of the road. But it should be estimated in both Km and in miles.

use speed limits to cap estimated time to destination
It seems to me that Waze uses the average speed of traffic to estimate the time to the destination of the route selected. However, this is not very useful to me if the average speed of traffic is greater than the legal speed limit. While I may be okay with exceeding the speed limit under certain conditions, I almost always prefer to know how long it will take me to get somewhere if I drive at most the legal limit. From there, I can make my own decision as to what route to take or how fast to drive.

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…2 votes
