User option to define the value you want the speed exceeded alert to be given!
I know that by default it is 30Km/h but in many situations 30 is a very "large" range when going from 120 to 100 in a controlled zone P.E. on the A29
This value should be a user-defined option!
The warning must be given a few meters before entering the area at a new speed
(The precedence can also be a value to be defined by the user)2 votes -

Total number of vehicles and mean speed, both in real time, for every street AROUND A USER SELECTED POINT.
I would like to get, for a project, the traffic density in real time of each street or highway. In other words, what I need is to get a number, instead of a color (currently red, green, etc) indicating me the quantity of vehicles in every street, along with the speed of each one. It is, 2 numbers: total number of vehicles and mean speed, both in real time, for every street AROUND A USER SELECTED POINT. The user would be a custom program that would determine in advance, the possible conflict at every selected intersection.
This would let…

Add a mechanism (button or gestuer) that would take an immediate screen shot and overlay it with the current speed and coordinates
If being pulled over by a cop the user could push the button and get a map with the overlayed speed, the average speed for the last ~10 seconds, date and time and the gps coordinates. This information could be used to convince the cop or the court you weren't speeding.

Eco Bar - Add a bar graph showing how ETA changes if you slow down to help save gas/electricity
I'd like to see how much longer my trip will take if I slow down by a few miles per hour. Most cars will proportionally consume more fuel the faster they go. Knowing how my ETA will be affected will help slow down a few mph which has many benefits beyond fuel savings. (The request to add a "how will my ETA be affected if I speed up" is a different request and probably will be harder to get past the lawyers... I'd be happy with a little bar graph on the side of the map that shows minutes added…

local law icons (like "no-turn-on-red")
I travel a lot for work, and never know basic road rules where I'm at. So I always err on the side of caution. Things like "Can I turn right on a red?", better not.
It would be AWESOME if I could drop a very small little overlay with icons of my choosing for (optional overlay please, with checkboxes if I want this particular feature):
- Right-turn-on-red "green-yes / red-no / grey-unknown"
- Passing-on-right-allowed "<same colors>"
- etc. for other 'odd' little region specific things that I'm sure you'll get 100 suggestionsThey could even be triggered overlays by my …

Add traffic camera report option for fixed highway cameras
Had traffic camera report option for stationary highway monitoring cameras. These are not red light cameras and these are not speed traps.

Speed Camera Distance Notification
Using Waze on my iPhone 14 I have noticed that although the position of the camera relative to my car icon is correct & accurate, distance notification pop-up is always about 150-175 yards out. As I pass the camera the countdown continues from 150 yards to zero !!
It's rather annoying that Waze is still showing the distance after I have passed the camera !! The location of the cameras are always correct relative to the arrow representing my car.
Also tried Waze on my car android head unit, and see the same error.
I have a screenshot of the…

Tourist safety suggestion - prompts re staying on the correct side of road
When tourists travel to a country where they have to drive on a different side of the road it can be potentially dangerous. I am in New Zealand where we drive on the left. Accidents are often caused when tourists mistakenly drift onto the right as they are on auto-pilot, and cause a head-on collision.
Most of the rental car companies put a "keep left" sticker on the inside of the windscreen to remind drivers but I don't think this enough. My idea is that Waze would create a special "tourist" version of the audio guide that would include…

Driver Safety Points: auto-reply to texts, speaker/bluetooth calls only, and speeding alerts.
It would be great if, when you signed into Waze, you were prompted to click on Driver or Passenger. If you are the driver, Waze puts the phone into drive mode, and it either auto-replies to texts with one of five pre-set messages (set up in settings), or it becomes completely voice activated, so it reads your incoming text aloud and allows you to respond via voice only (also set in settings per driver preference). Also, it alerts you to who is calling and allows you to only answer it via either speakerphone or bluetooth (or disregard and it goes…

Allow "Map Problem" UR reporting using the 'Talk to report' feature to assist user to leave a UR while driving.
Currently the 'Talk to report' feature allows for reporting road hazards but does not allow for reporting 'Map Problems' such as 'incorrect speed limit' or 'no u-turn allowed.'
As a volunteer map editor, if I could tap the report button and say, "Drop UR here for ... " to open a UR with the UR type listed as 'Voice report' and the UR comment pre-filled with the voice to text input from the report, then I would be able to fix 90% more of the map problems that I notice while driving every day.11 votes -
Speed synchronization with traffic light changes to save fuel and pollution.
To the Wiz development team,
My name is Benya, and I am a traffic expert with extensive experience in planning and optimizing urban transportation systems. I am contacting you with an innovative proposal that can add significant value to the Wiz application and contribute to improving the quality of the environment.
The idea: an ecological 'green wave' feature
I suggest adding a feature to Wiz that will recommend to drivers the optimal speed to travel to reach the traffic lights when they are green. This feature will combine Wiz's existing information about traffic conditions with traffic light timing data.
Ecological…

PLEASE limit the number of fog alerts! I can SEE that it's foggy...I don't need to be alerted it's foggy EVERY minute on my hour drive!
PLEASE limit the number of fog alerts! I can SEE that it's foggy...I don't need to be alerted it's foggy at all let alone EVERY minute on my hour long commute to work! It was SO annoying...literally every minute I was getting the "warning fog reported ahead" over and over and over. Ideally, get rid of the fog alert option altogether so there are none at all! If it's foggy enough to be alerted about it 0.4 miles away, it's already foggy where you're driving! Fog spreads out!

Logging Options on Waze (distance, driving time, gas costs)
It would be great that Waze could log some data about your trip.
So you could include a kind of dashboard that could display your speed, average speed, distance driven, a kind of trip distance resetable by user, as well a fuel logging calculator.
The fuel logging calculator should enable you to register the price spent and the ammount of fuel you've filled. This would be great for drivers to make some stats in order to reduce costs.26 votes -
I just exceeded my alert limit, and wasn't able to report a major accident. All the alerts were valid, it was just a really bad day.
I just exceeded my alert limit, and wasn't able to report a major accident. All the alerts were valid, it was just a really bad day. I think it's time you allowed advanced users (who've reached a certain level) a higher limit.

Option to Replace Long Voice Alerts with Short Beep for Speed Traps
When I'm approaching a speed trap, the voice alert is too long and repetitive. It plays over and over without pausing the podcast, so I often miss parts of what I'm listening to and have to rewind.
It would be great to have an option to disable the lengthy "educational" message and keep only a short sound notification, like a simple beep.1 vote
