Needs to show and CALL OUT stop signs and traffic lights as needed for turns.
In addition to showing stop signs and lights, call them out as needed for turns (instead of the distance). Apple Maps actually does a good job with this, a good example to follow.

Turn by turn direction alert only for last few kilometres option
Is it possible to give turn-by-turn instructions only for the last few kilometres (configurable), while the rest of the trip will give only hazard alerts? This will help enjoy the music without interruption during the initial journey in know roads.

favourite gas station price list (either highlighted on map or make a separate tab with list of them)
I live in big city /distance between work and home is 10+ km/. that means I dont see all gas stations around me (waze shows only 3km around your actual position). I would prefer to have a list or possibility to browse on map gas stations I am interested in. Or make them favourable and show them always on map .. so I can easily check where is the lowest price. without setting to navigate me home and going to the option to see any nearby gas stations on may way to/from work.

Radar traps alerts
Until now Waze would alert for all fixed radar traps regardeless of being used online or offline and regardless of our speed. Now that has changed and doesn't happe anymore, the alerts are only audible while online. This is a pityfull change in the aap and should be corrected asap, for this is one of Waze's most usesfull features considering the huge number of radar traps present in European cities.

Police
Pls add Police alert option “Cop on Top”.
In our country, the police likes to hide on the overhead bridges.
I used to be able to go back and comment “Cop on Top” or “Cop at Bus Lane” but that feature has been removed ?5 votes -
Junction after junction only pre-alert by voice, no graphic indicates.
Turn after turn only mention in voice over, has no graphic indicater. Ex. Keep right then the next keep left right aways less then 100 meter.
It's easy to miss the second voice over, and it's very dangerous to driver.
Such as: keep right 200 Meter + keep left 50 Meter.

Auto Detect Speed in Traffic
Instead of the user selecting the "level" of traffic, Waze should automatically detect the user's speed for a specified time and/or distance to calculate an accurate delay due to the traffic. Then Waze should continue to monitor new users as they pass through the traffic zone to determine if the event is still occurring or if it needs to be removed and transit times recalculated.

Always choose WME items over Google Map items
A place (area or point or residential) or House number entered into Waze Map Editor should ALWYS be chosen over a Google Maps import in Waze’s Search.
This is very frustrating to users since they are often routed to the wrong location. It is also very frustrating to editors since their work to update the map is ignored.
…If a person searches 123 Main St, City, State, then their search should show the 123 Main St, City, State (From WME) as the first item and not 123 Main Street, City State from Google Maps. (With 133 Main Street, City, State12 votes -
High Accident Area Allert
When about to enter an intersection where there have been many fatalities/accidents Waze could alert you to use extra caution. Today, my son and I saw an accident that is an area I went through and I remember thinking..."Oh my goodness, what in the world!?!" It was a strange intersection. I think drivers can be warned either by a voice warning to use extra caution or by a color that shows that area to be susceptible to accidents. His truck was upside down and the top crushed in. We hope he's okay. The idea to me is not to avoid…

Adding pass Jawaz for Morocco and alert users
Here in morocco we use pass “Jawaz” to pay high way, a pass must have credit on
A suggestion is :
-adding pass Jawaz
- notify people with account that have pass “Jawaz” when they plan trajectory using high way to verify first if they have credit on their pass
A suggest is because many people forgot to add credit on their pass and on check point they made horrible traffic1 vote -
Enable the ‘Reports Ahead’ window to update continuously to show the km/miles to the hazard.
Currently, if you go into the ‘reports ahead’ section it will show you the km to the hazard, but if you leave this window open it doesn’t update the km, you have to exit and go back in again to refresh the distance. Can you please provide auto update of distance on this screen. Thank you.

When a warning appears, show a shrinking progress bar (regress bar, closing-in bar?)
When a warning appears (hazard, police, vehicle on shoulder, traffic), show a shrinking progress bar (regress bar, closing in bar?), perhaps with distance number also. The current tiny numbers are hard to read, require too much attention, and give no feel for the approach rate. Waze assumes perfect close and medium vision too often. If there are several: unclear, but I suppose focus on nearest.

Show Forward and Reverse Route Options with Distances on Two-Way Roads
I would like to suggest a feature that could enhance user experience when recalculating routes on two-way streets. The idea is that, upon initiating or redefining a route while the vehicle is stationary on such roads, the app would display indicators both ahead and behind the vehicle. These indicators would show the distance and estimated time for both directions, allowing the driver to choose the most efficient route. For example, if proceeding forward results in a 3.5 km journey and turning around leads to a 2.8 km route, the user could opt for the shorter and quicker alternative.
I believe…

Electrical Map in Puerto Rico will attract millions users
Adding and Electrical Map, will give Waze a millions of users!
Since Hurricane Maria, hundreds of roads and bridges where destroyed, signs that does not exist anymore, and roads with a mile of holes. Lately it is so dificult to drive on some roads. Specially those without electricuty jet, 7 month later of hurricane Maria.

Police avoidance
Like when a jam ahead is getting worse, Waze should tell you “police reported ahead. Do you want to divert? (2 more minutes)”. This should be toggleable in the settings just like speed alert is
