Police alert
Would like to suggest that in addition to a police alert
There will also be a police laser speed alert6 votes -
Alerts
Can you change the alerts so that cameras are warned at any speed nit just when at speed limit or above. Many times I've approached under the speed limit, had no audible warning then my speeds increased as I've got closer

Enable Speech-to-Text for Map Update Requests While Driving (via Android Auto and CarPlay)
I would like to suggest an improvement to Waze that would allow users to fill out map update requests (URs) using speech-to-text while driving, particularly when connected through Android Auto or CarPlay.
Currently, when users select a map update option (such as "Incorrect address," "Missing road," or "Speed limit") while driving, there is no way to add a description of the issue. This limits the ability to provide detailed reports and often results in incomplete information being submitted. With speech-to-text functionality, users could quickly and safely dictate descriptions of the problem without having to stop or manually type anything.

Speeding alerts, 30.40 and 50 km/h above limit
At the moment the speeding alert can be set to a maximum of 20km over the limit but I also need other thresholds, 30.40 and 50km/h. In some countries, exceeding the speed limit by 50km/h leads to the suspension of the driving license.

Do I need a map
Do I need a map
A lot of my driving I know the route, I travel it every day and for there is no reason to change
What I need the the speed (Big Display)- speed alerts (When over the limit) - warnings - hazards, police and radar verbally called and heavy/standstill traffic when approaching recorded warnings within the last 30 minutes.
This would save on the map downloads and for me the use of mobile data, even though I have found this to be very small.
The maps are good for places I do not know, but for to…

Police camera ≠ police report
In some countries, it is not allowed to drive with an app giving the exact locations of police cameras (automatic speed control), waze intelligently gives the area where the police cameras are (very useful alert and the utilization of waze is allowed).
But to fight the concept of the "area" most of drivers post a police location each time they pass beside a police camera (I have observed it, a police camera in Paris France is reported every 15 min, sometime several times).
Consequence : waze gives the exact location of each police cameras everyday, every time.

Add Fuel Capacity to plan a fuel stop on highway trip
Hi ! Is it possible to add a fuel capacity and average efficiency to the vehicule specifications part in order to « automatically » plan a stop on a highway tolled trip.
It’s maybe a french exception but we enter a tolled highway by a entry point and pay when we leave the highway ; so a fuel stop outside the highway is difficult.
Thanks in advance :-)8 votes -
android auto - location of icons
It would be great if the location of icon is on the side of where the driver seated. For example, if Waze is used in USA, the icons should be on the left side of the screen. If waze is used in India, icons should be on the right side of the screen. If not all icons can be moved around, at least the speed and speed limit icons placement would be good enough. That way a driver do not have to reach farther for an action or look further to see the speed/speed limit.

Full screen speedometer option on phone
It would be nice to have the option to have a full screen speedometer with speed limits. Motorcycle speedometers can be 10% off, so most of the time I use Waze as a speedometer (with a map), it would be nice if I could tap the speedometer and make it go to full screen big speedometer display, then tap again to return to the map if I need it.
I've tried other GPS just speedometer, but then I lose Waze (And those aren't very accurate like your speedometer is).

STOP 180° car rotation when standing still
So I come to a stop light, and after a while, my car and map (not the screen) rotates, I guess, as it thinks I actually did make a U turn. Problem is my speed is 0km/h. It happens even when you have a destination to navigate to, and then, all of u sudden, I'm turned around and I'm being shown to make first to the right. I start driving, the whole thing rotates ones again, and I miss my left turn !?!?! I think it's because it get's a satellite position which shifted a bit, so it thinks that…

passengercar with trailer as option to get realistic eta
Add the option for selecting a passengercar with trailer. Lower speed limits for a car with trailer apply. At this moment where only a car can be selected the estimated time of arrival will be far off. With a trailer to select a much better (realistic) ETA would be given

Enter hazard at another location
Allow someone to enter a new hazard and place it at another location. There is a common speed trap near my house that I would like to enter a hazard for when the cops are ticketing

police
After making a report of police, I noticed in my Inbox that it was labeled as "police speed trap." I don't think the app should make that assumption. I report police presence ONLY to promote officer safety. Sometimes large trucks block drivers' view and they may not be able to see there is an officer (or other emergency responder) at the side of the road.

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 …
