Many times as a passenger using Waze I notice incorrect map info or current road situations not reported. When I try to report info for updates I receive "don't text & drive" message & am not allowed to suggest updates (hazards, police, accidents, speed limits, road construction, etc). Would it be possible under Navigation (similar to Vehicle Details) to add Wazer Details with options of: Driver, Passenger? If Driver, process as is. If Passenger, allow suggestions for updates in current time.

New hiden speed cameras in athens not shown on map
TO: Google & Waze – Traffic and Maps Division
SUBJECT: Missing speed/red light cameras in Athens & National Highway – Immediate risk for usersDear team,
I’m a professional taxi driver who drives tens of thousands of kilometers every year in Athens and on the Athens–Lamia National Highway. I use Waze and Google Maps daily. However, the lack of updated data on new cameras has become a serious risk for your users.
What’s happening:
- In Athens:
Dozens of new traffic cameras have been installed on major roads (Kifisos Ave., Kifisias, Dyrrachiou, Moschato, Nea Filadelfia, etc.).
These are white with…

police notification 1 mile ahead rather then 0.5 miles
It would be nice to have a little further warning that a police car is ahead in some instances a half a mile they can clock your speed.

Time in traffic
Alert users of the time they will spend in traffic on highways etc before the off-ramp. The alert always come up after you have gone past the turn off so you are stuck sitting in the traffic.

More direct routes for emergency response services and fire hydrant locations.
Hi, I propose you look into a toggle option for navigation for emergency services organizations that completely ignores traffic regulations, stop signs traffic lights etc..
Emergency services need to take the fastest route while ignoring speed limits, traffic lights & signs.
It would be very helpful to have a navigation that made more direct routes that completely disregard these things and give you the absolute fastest route.
Also, it would be awesome if there could also be a toggle option to show fire hydrant icons / locations for firefighters.4 votes -
Live updating, real-time petrol prices
In New South Wales, Australia, we have a government run website called http://fuelcheck.nsw.gov.au that has real-time, live updating petrol prices from all petrol stations. This is a much more accurate source of information than user updated petrol prices that can sometimes be weeks out of date.
I'm sure Waze could access some sort of API to pass this info on to users.5 votes -
International Land Border Wait Time
I would like to suggest that Waze capture wait times at land border ports of entry into the US in the Canadian and Mexico border with automated geofencing. There are millions of people who come in a day into the US and would be a great market for people who come shop in the US.

Voice navigation instructions based on traffic lights and stop signs.
Apple Maps would say “At the next light turn left” or “At the stop sign turn right” or “Go past this light, and at the next one, turn left” which is very useful and helps me make turns at the right intersection, especially if two streets are close to each other.

Tunnel Navigation bluetooth OBDII
Typically GPS signal is lost in long tunnels. Why not include a waze connection to a bluetooth enabled OBDII device in your car to give accurate speed. The direction is immaterial as the tunnel path is well known.The devices are cheap about $5 to $20 on ebay. Waze would benefit by knowing speed through tunnels. Yes, beacons are good, but not if they are sparsely placed.

1. 1. When I am driving to a destination in another time zone, please show the ETA of that time Zone.
- When I am driving to a destination in another time zone, please show the ETA of that time Zone. (2) When I driving along Interstate highways, and am looking for a Coffee or eating place along the Route, it is usually looking ahead. I don't want to drive back 20 miles to have a coffee. I am looking for a Coffee stop ahead. (3) Show rest stops as most other apps do. (4) Show Traffic Lights and gas stations

timing of alerts
is there any way WAZE can have the speed limit changes switch a little earlier, cos at the moment I can go 50ft or more past the speed limit change before the waze updates the change. certain plods near east gordano set up traps right behind the speed limit sign,

Speedometer metrics
The speedometer should have an ability to change between mi or km. Let's say someone prefers km for navigation but the country they live in has speed limits in mi. by changing the overall metric, both navigation and speedometer is affected..

Show distance covered and time passed while driving
It would be great if waze can display the time passed and the distance i covered in km or miles since i started driving when my app is running. This can be optional and the distance covered display can be turned on and off using settings.

Change the colors when speeding
The dark red on dark gray is difficult to read when speeding. I needed to use Waze as a speedometer while in Canada (KPH not MPH). And it was often difficult to read the speed.

Alert sounds
Please can you add the ability to enable Wazers to select alert sounds. The speed limit alert sound is so short and quiet it is almost impossible to hear even at full volume. The ringing bell for roadworks is so loud and clear but doesn’t really need to be! I would love to be able to select the sound for each alert notification. Thanks!
52 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on having an option to select alert sounds. Keep an eye out for updates in your app store.
