Police
Sorry to upset all of the folks asking for more features to warn of police presence but this is a childish feature which should be removed. Waze is a great app and you would be best served by taking the "high road" and promoting the app as an aid to road safety by making drivers aware of road situations and hazards. But many wazers like me have their kids also driving and I am just waiting with dread for the day that a fellow wazer tells a drunken driver how to avoid a policeman and then that drunk …

The shortest route in terms of time should take account of a reduced speed compared with the maximum speed
My employer wants me to drive with a reduced speed below the speed limits :
- 110 km/h on roads limited to 130 km/h
- 100 km/h on roads limited to 110 km/h.
I can't set those maximum speeds into the Waze settings.
The path with the shortest time depends on the maximal speed a vehicle has on each type of road.4 votes -

Make "Do not avoid Pay Roads" assume all Vignettes / Tolls paid
When driving through Europe, Waze avoids highways even when the option "avoid toll roads" is turned off (it should use toll roads). Each country has a different vignette. Travelling a 5h car ride from Crostia to Austria can take you through Slovenia or Hungary. To use highways you need to add the Vignette for Austria, Hungary, and Slovenia. That takes time and is confusing and inconvenient.
Solution: when "Avoid toll roads" is disabled, take any road a typical car would drive, including all vignettes you buy in that country. Assume the driver will buy them. Give infos about…

Use accelerometer to detect and report on bumpy roads, and offer option to route around them
Use the device's accelerometer to detect bumpiness in the road the user is currently driving on. Send this data to Waze, then use collective data on road bumpiness to offer a routing option so that users can favor driving on smoother roads. Possibly also tie into the existing systems to report/show potholes or road hazards.

Electric car planning with chargers and battery info
I would like to use Waze like ABRP. For me Waze is the best GPS software to drive my car with. But nowadays I have an electric car and need to plan my trip with the battery level and consumption and the available electric chargers on my way. So I would like to see WAZE able to plan my route, adding to it the needed chargers to reach the destination, for example knowing the initial battery status, the consumption of the car it will be easy to understand when to charge and can add any of the available chargers to…

INCLUDE KAMIKAZE´S ALERT IN WAZE
LIVES COULD BE SAVED BY INCLUDING A QUICK ACCESS KAMIKAZE (vehicle driving in the wrong direction) ALERT ON WAZE. KAMIKAZES IS ONE, IF NOT THE DEADLIEST DANGERS THAT YOU CAN ENCOUNTER ON A ROAD AND WAZE DO NOT HAVE THIS ALERT. I THINK IT SHOULD INCLUDE IT ASAP

Don't send me driving into a fire zone in San Francisco.
Driving around SF last Tuesday morning. Used Waze and was directed into an area where there was a huge fire which had been ongoing for a few hours.
And later that afternoon (7-hours later) it directed me again to the area still closed by that very fire.

toll estimator
today while driving I was given a choice of three routes, all of which had tolls. It would be great if there was an estimate on how much the total tolls would be for each route since I know from personal experience that one of the routes given had substantially lower tolls and only added two minutes to the trip
18 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze calculates and displays toll prices in many parts of the world. To know when this becomes available in your country, stay tuned on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram

Max speed trip estimate
I drive an road e-bike, which has a max speed of 32kmh due to legal restrictions in Ontario. It would be great if we could specify a max vehicle speed and Waze could take that into account when estimating how long it will take to arrive at a destination.

In New York there are a lot of speed traps cameras . If waze can set up an alarm at a speed limit setting by driver. Less tickets driver get
In New York there are a lot of speed traps cameras . If waze can set up an alarm at a speed limit setting by driver. Less tickets driver get
New York speed limit camera traps is 25mph. If you can make an alarm ring if you pass the speed limit, have it go off automatically and also have the waze drive change the speed manually too...

Stop making changes that are NOT helpful! Please
Hiding the alternative routes process and replacing with an unlabeled icon was not helpful. Also, where did the option to see an overview of your drive go?

After the last update waze has become worse
Dear developers.
(If you are still reading this)
No offense, but, after each update,
waze, it is getting worse and worse.
a feeling that you want to screw up this application,
that all was abandoned.
I confess, and I have such a thought slips, carry waze and go on something else. the good thing laid a lot.
Lord, developers do not need to invent or anything, just carefully read the user reviews.
After the last update waze began to fail even more. It lost a lot of functions, such as viewing events. the interface is not convenient! stael more children,…6 votes -
Add divided street option
Waze doesn't differentiate when a street has a median that blocks the ability to get to a destination. Add another option similar to elevation or direction but that requires Waze to navigate to the other driving direction for the street. This would allow editors to update Waze streets without having to split them for the same functionality.

Route Preview Option
You select a route, then press the "Route Preview" button. Map view will then zoom to your current location and travel down the selected route as if you were driving. The map pans down the route so that you can see all the things you will be dealing with along the way without having to scroll around the map with your finger. Adding a "preview speed (1x, 2x, 3x, etc)" and a "pause preview" option would be a great addition to this.

Safety Hazard
It is against the law in Texas to text and drive or even read texts while driving. The suggestions popping up on Waze are as distracting as if receving a text. Not very good for safety.

Always show typical route
I often drive the same route, and Waze likes to offer alternatives. Fine, but always show my typical route so I can evaluate whether saving 2 minutes on a 2 hour drive is worth taking some magical mystery tour.
