The Green line - (Energy/ Gasoline)
The green line- When a Wazer checks optional routes (and also in the preferences/initial destination route) the most energy efficient route shall be marked as the "Green Line".The Wazer should provide Waze with its car model, design, and year so Waze could calculate the energy consumption.There is a difference between the routes because of distance, time, type of ride etc.At the end of the ride the Wazer will be provided with estimated carbon footprint.From Waze perspective - much more data... and from there you can think about many products and ways to monetize it

Can you create a "rouch railroad crossing" hazard? In an unfmailiar area it would be nice to know if the railroad is going to eat your car.
Please add a "Rough Railroad Crossing" hazard. Pothole doesn't quite describe the situation properly.

Partner with Self-Driving Car Manufacturer
Partner with Google, or another self-driving car manufacturer, and put Waze in ever car. If the Community already knows where everyone is, when they leave, how fast they're going, etc. Waze could automate traffic and avoid traffic jams

CarPlay Display of My location
It’s great that Waze is now available on CarPlay. However one thing I’ve noticed is the route ahead is often obscured by the turn/ETA tiles. This is because the location of your car is dead centre on the screen. If your location was offset to the side (like Google and Apple maps) this situation would be improved.

Move avoid highways option to menu
As someone who owns both a car and a motorcycle, I toggle The avoid highways navigation option back and forth all the time. It's currently buried about 3 or 4 menus down. Love to have that moved to the top menu for ease of use.

Report menu redesign
Nowadays reporting menu is not fluent enough to use while driving, especially when reporting hazards, due to heavy use of text in the menus Latest update even made the font smaller...
I feel that hazard report menu should contain icons in the same matter the main menu uses them. Meaning: car, animal and anything else should have an icon describing. Thus, making the reporting duty during driving a hell of a lot easier. Same goes with the lane choice for the report (you can barely see those tiny arrows there).6 votes -
dark mode
Your latest update has messed around with dark mode and I’d like to highlight a potentially dangerous problem. Dark mode used to automatically activate however now it doesn’t leaving a bright white screen during night driving on Apple car play. This is extremely dangerous
The only way to prevent this is to open your phone and then open Waze which enables dark mode. Please fix asap

A car/driver could use some help in 300m
So many times we see car on the roads, specifically the highway, but we are navigating to fast to stop last minute to help them out. Although many of us would be glad to help out, we just can't stop as we saw them too late. If there was a way people in need could put in a request (sometimes, just not being alone, panicking is already a big help - having an extra fluo jacket, need of water, lift to closest gas station if in the middle of nowhere etc.) that would send an alert "a car is pulled…

Carpooling, picking friends up
I pick my friends up for college every morning and I would love Waze to offer a way to remember carpooling groups and requests. That way I would only have to open the app and let my "college group" know I'm leaving. Each one of them would receive my ETA to their location and would let them know (individually) when they have to go on the street to hop on the car. Similarly, they would also be able to check my location and ETA to their location at any time.

Outdated Waze map design -> Chances for a redesign?
The Waze map design is now quite outdated and seems very retro, out of date. There are no 3D buildings, poor resolution on large car screens, etc.
Will there ever be a redesign of the Waze map, see e.g. Google Maps 3D buildings in navigation.

Enable drawing polygon areas where Closures cannot be applied
Use-case:
There is a bridge under construction where only one direction is open at a time, controlled by traffic lights. Currently, Waze often shows it as closed, even though cars are just waiting for the light to change.
Proposal:
Add a feature in WME to draw a polygon-shaped area where closures cannot be applied — useful for cases like temporary one-lane bridges with traffic lights, where Waze should display a queue instead of a closure.

Allow users to choose to display routes on their Phone instead forcing on the Android Auto
Allow users to choose whether to use their phone as Waze for routes or Android Auto as the main display, instead of forcing it to display on Android Auto. Some people want to stream music using Android Auto and use their phones to see directions, as it doesn't distract them from the road. Some head units in cars are positioned lower from the direction of the road and are more of a hassle to look at while driving.

Bring back the old car icons
Bring back the old car icons. These new blocky icons are hideous, childish, and quite stupid looking.

Re-arranging the waze application display for "landscape" screens
On a 7" car display, which is a "landscape" display, the Waze application displays the "Next turn" box, including the turn description, on about a quarter of the screen, sometimes even larger. The Result is that the on-coming road map is covered by the box, and the "turn area" shows only at the last minute. For such a "landscape" display the screen display should be re-arranged so that the important part of the on-coming map shall not be hidden until the very last minute, similar to the standard "portrait" telephone display.

Default app for car dock action
When I put my Galaxy S3 in my car dock android automatically launches a default app. My only two choices are Google S Voice, Google navigation app or the Verizon navigation app. I want to chose Waze. Please make it an option to be launched when a phone is put in a car dock.

WAZE to Catch Criminals
First as police officer for 35 years I think waze is great and makes our job easier. The goal of every law enforcement agency is (if not shame on them) voluntary compliance with the law. If the mere presence of a police car causes motorists to communicate via waze and slow down, then our job is done without the hazards of a traffic stop!
But my idea is for wazers to help the police get dangerous criminals off the streets. Criminals drive to and from crime scenes and are out in traffic with millions of wazers. Police officers issue Be…
