Trust based system for report longevity
Hi Waze Team,
I’d like to suggest adding a trust-based system to improve the accuracy of reports. The idea is that users who consistently receive upvotes on their reports could have their future reports trusted for a longer duration by default. This would reward reliable contributors while reducing the impact of inaccurate or spam reports.
For example, if a user frequently provides reports that receive positive feedback, their new reports could remain visible longer before requiring additional confirmations. Conversely, reports from users with a lower trust score could require more confirmations sooner.
I believe this could enhance the reliability…

estimation based on the gradient of the route
Implement fuel consumption/energy expenditure estimation based on the gradient of the route. Currently it does not take into account whether the route contains uphill or downhill slopes. In many cases a route can be more efficient if uphill slopes are avoided or efficiency can be improved if it is downhill. It can also be very useful for bicycles, trucks, etc.

Stay on Major Road Option, Longer Distance, Faster Time
Give a route option to stay on MAJOR roads, state roads and highways, and choice of a slightly longer distance, but shorter time driving. Waze always takes me off the interstate or major state road to save a few miles off of my route, but in doing so I go through every stop sign, speed table, neighborhood and school zone possible. Sure it saved me a couple of miles, but added loads of frustrating time to my drive, increased gas usage and increased wear and tear on my car.
Not only that, the start and stopping of these shorter routes,…

PLEASE stop routing people on minor roads
Please stop routing people on minor roads like Norwich St in Milwaukee! Our small, quiet road now has tons of traffic that it never had before (I've been here 20 years) and that it wasn't designed for, to the point that I might look into whether we can get speed bumps, especially since most of the cars are going WAY over our 25 mph speed limit. Keep people on the major roads that were designed for more traffic and that have higher speed limits, please.

ETA & TBR during holyday
Some working week days might be a holiday once a year for some national celebration, and should be treated specially, not only for the ETA calculation, but also for TBR (Time Based Rules) for routing.
It might be an 8th day of the week with its own stats and be activated for requiring countries based on a given dates list .27 votes -
Average speed
Моля, да се маркират отсечките по Българските пътища, на които се измерва средна скорост. Всички те са маркирани в сайт bgtoll / въпроси и отговори, под секцията "Средна скорост". Всяка отсечка е маркирана и показана. Не съм единственият, който иска това да се извърши, особено с въвеждането на този нов закон в България от 7ми септември!

Option to disable specific “Permanent road feature” alerts
Description:
Waze currently groups all permanent road features (speed bumps, toll booths, sharp curves, forks, merging, complex intersections) under one setting. This means users can only turn them all on or off.
Many drivers would like finer control. For example, speed bump alerts are often unnecessary or distracting, while alerts for toll booths or sharp curves are very useful.
Please allow users to selectively enable or disable each type of permanent road feature alert. This customization would improve the driving experience without losing important safety information.2 votes -
Vehicle Type - Van to be added
Under Vehicle Type in Settings, Could there be a vehicle type for Vans that shows the correct speed you can go on certain roads, as in the UK Vans are restricted on speed on certain types of roads like on a national speed limit single carriageway it 50mph for a van instead of 60mph, aswell as a dual carriageway it’s 60mph instead of 70mph.

Leave later time increments
The 'Leave Later' option should have 5-minute time increments. Most of the time, 15-minute increments is too much.

When driving on a long straight road, when the alert is announced, it is too late to avoid long range speed cameras. Is it possible to adjust the timing of the alert announcement to give more time to warn of what is ahead ?

Children's game based on the new locations encountered during a drive
A game aimed at children that links the driving experience to the area being driven through. So, for example, I spy puzzles based on nearby landmarks (eg I spy, spelling the name of the neighborhood). Raises children's awareness of the world around us, much like pokemon got people exploring their local neighborhoods on foot. Puzzle ideas can be provided by other wazers/children.

MORE navigation options, in addition to shorter time or distance
I would LOVE for waze to have multiple options for routes. For instance :
Standard options:
- shortest distance
- shortest time
Standard avoids :
- avoid toll roads
- avoid highwaysNew ones:
- least turns
- least traffic lights ;New avoiding routes:
- avoid construction routes
- avoid one lane streets
- avoid streets with traffic moving slower thanAll of these should be able to mix and match and specify further details. For instance it would be great if it showed option to list trips within X percent of time to shortest time trip. It can…

Saving fuel and increase brake pads lifetime
On German highways there are often speed limit changes from unlimited to 130km/h or less. So if I drive for example 200km/h and see the speed limit sign and i go completly off throttle and my car reduces speed to about 180km/h until i reach the sign. So I have to break fast from 180 to 130km/h or less. This is big wear for my brake pads. To get a longer lifetime of my brakes and to get a smoother driving I wish to get a message 1 or to 2km before the speed sign (only on highways when …
