mapless mode
how about a screen that just displays the speed and any nearby alerts (range user selectable) for when we're just driving and don't need the GPS? This could cut down on data (and battery) usage by not fetching maps, but still let us provide data back to the system.

I drive an old car that can't exceed 110km/h
I drive an old car that can't exceed 110km/h, since the ETA is necessarily calculated with speed max of each roads, with my car on a highway (130km/h) the ETA is wrong, would it be possible to set a maximum speed for my vehicle ?

Police on East Coast using Waze?
My friends and I, spread out in a few states on the east coast have noticed the police are using waze and Untagging themselves at the location of speed traps. This actually has been confirmed by an officer in Central New Jersey. Since many Waze users use the app for the police notifications I suggest in order to remove a police notification 2-3 DIFFERENT waze users must hit "not there"... I would seriously consider adding this sooner than later, maybe in the next update
Thanks for the great app

Traffic Simulation For Wazers To Work Together To Improve Traffic
Make a simulation to see what traffic would be like if either everybody abided by the laws OR people worked together to go a "Waze assisted" speed to improve traffic flow for others (for instance, speed up or slow down according to upcoming traffic information to help maintain traffic flow together). It could also tell you how many people/wazers you would affect, positively, from the actions you take.

Support ODB bluetooth dongles
Allow the use of an ODB bluetooth dongle to get a number of improvements. These dongles are quite cheap and provide a wealth of extra data. Possible uses:
[ Better dead reckoning using vehicle speed ]
Using the actual vehicle speed combined with compass, accelerometer and map matching it should be possible to have accurate positioning in tunnels/urban canyons. TomTom does this and is able to do near-perfect positioning with only one GPS datapoint every 30 minutes.[ Monitor fuel usage ]
Things like planning a gas stop could be automated. When the tank gets below a certain…31 votes -

Allow a start/stop feature for hazzards/lane restrictions, traffic jams, etc.
When traveling through a construction area allow a start/stop point so others can choose atl. routes. This can also be for speed reductions, accident sites, etc.

Please consider updating the Waze app so that speed cameras remain visible on the map at all times, even when the driver exceeds the +20 km/
Please consider updating the Waze app so that speed cameras remain visible on the map at all times, even when the driver exceeds the +20 km/h grace limit in Dubai.
Recently, the cameras disappear above the limit and only reappear about 500 meters before, which wasn’t the case earlier and can be stressful for drivers.

Make a police in motion icon.
The Icon will move at the with the current speed of the Wazer who tapped it. The Icon would move for 1 KM and then dissappear. This would be helpful for those speeding in the HOV lanes or going opposite traffic. Police have radars that will track you if you are approaching them now.

Automate road closure Report
It is difficult to report road closures in real time - especially on a freeway - because of the approach speed and unexpected driving adjustment. If Waze inquired why I missed a turn/off-on ramp it would be helpful. This is similar to when Waze asks "you slowed down - are you in traffic?" If Waze notices that I missed a turn/off-on ramp it should ask "you missed a turn- was there a road closure ?" This way I can report later ( give me 60 secs) when safe. If I just missed the turn because I was distracted or chose…

A useful improvement:
if you drive faster than the allowed speed, Waze will beep once, but if you could set Waze to beep continuously until you drive at the allowed speed (slower), then it would be a very, very great app

Displaying the sections where the speed of travel from point A to point B is recorded by the cameras of the Toll system for vignettes.
Hello Bulgaria, but not only Bulgaria. Since the beginning of September 2025, the toll system that monitors purchased vignettes has started measuring average speed in certain sections of the road network.
Unfortunately, these road sections are not marked on the road itself, and drivers have no way of knowing that they are entering these sections.
The state, represented by the Road Agency and the Toll System, published a list and map on their website showing where these sections are located, and that was the end of the information on this change.
It is clear that the state is doing this…2 votesThanks for contacting us about reporting an error on the map. Our community of volunteer map editors handle all changes to the Waze map.

Reports and Hazard Alerts
Speed camera alerts or warnings should sound regardless of the speed travelling. I would rather know something is there even if under speed. GPS speed monitoring is not as accurate as a vehicles speedometer, it's usually 5mph out.

routes for caravans
Please create a category for those towing a caravan so that inappropriate routes are not offered.
I would rather travel further on a good road than be guided onto a narrow, winding, steep or unsafe surface when towing my caravan.
The risk of a collision with an oncoming vehicle travelling at high speed on a windy dirt road is very high when visibility is limited and there is no room to manoeuvre22 votes -
Show more navigation instructions when losing GPS signal
It would be nice if the client could show more than the next turn (on the screen) when driving by navigation and the GPS signal is lost.
The next turn is shown in green on the bottom left corner, and the 3 following driving instructions could show up in orange above this when GPS signal is lost.
If there is a speed cam between two of the next turns, is should also show up in this "navigation list".

Police report : choosing the exact location
It is crucial to add a feature that allows users to pinpoint the exact location of police officers on the map. Or to be able to correct the location of the police officer. This increased precision will help drivers easily identify control zones and adjust their speed accordingly.
