User Reporting - initial and more details
Add an option to email reporting user for more details when creating the report. The long press on report currently gives options for Police, Hazard and Traffic. My suggestion is to add one for 'email me' where the user can provide full details when they are not driving. Navigating to the Report, finding the correct option, before finding the Later option is not safe when you driving.
As editors, there are a lot of reports with minimal detail. Posting a request for the submitter to provide more details rarely gets a response.

Speed before sharp curves or in rough weather
Alert when a user drive to fast before curve in the road or a coming intersection.
Waze knows the speed of the car and "knows" that we are getting close to a sharp curve in the road , alert in that case would be very important . Especillay in a rough weather.5 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Add upper/lower freeway selector
Waze doesn't always know if you are driving on the upper or lower level of a freeway, but it does know where there are two level freeways. Adding a question like "are you on the upper level, similar to "we detected a slowdown. are you in traffic?", would be very helpful

Stacked Lane Guidance
Ability to map "stacked" lane guidance.
A stacked lane is one where you have one lane turning into two. An example I have is here in Calgary AB Canada, we have a rail underpass that you make a right turn onto, but there is a median between the two lanes (its a one-way) and you need to be is the farthest lane access the left turn at the other side of the rail underpass.
And right now, we don't have the ability to show that the first right lane is "stacked lanes"

Ability to clear old reports
There needs to be a way to clear old/outdated reports. My drive home today was littered with reports from 5, 7, 9 days ago. They just clutter up the screeen and distract from important, relevant information

Car Info Button
It's been over a year since you said "not now" so is a year (almost 2 years) long enough? "Car Info" button should be under the settings menu not on the main screen. Please allow us to remove the option while driving. How many people really change what they're driving that often to keep that on the main screen? It really should be under settings.

Bridges
I have vertigo and had to drive the Dames Point Bridge due to the navigation. No warning. Please note high bridges or suspension bridges in the upcoming warnings and give us a chance to find alternate routes.

I don't like the new waze. Can't stop navigation after it starts.
I don't like the NEW Waze. Can't stop navigation once it starts unless I close the app completely. Make it bigger on the iphone so I can leave my phone on the dash while driving.

Sunglare warning
Every morning, there are so many unnecessary accidents and traffic delays because people don't know how to put on sunglasses in the morning. Having a sunglare warning...and one that tells people to wear their sunglasses...might help...so people don't seemed shocked when they come around a curve and the sun is in their face again. Makes driving to work so frustrating when people seemed shocked every time. Please please please add a Sunglare Weather Hazard soon.

Configure highway Navigation way point alerts
Often times when driving in the highway waze does not provide a way point alert until we are very close to the waypoint. On the highway having some more advance notice (.25, .5, or 1m?) on these waypoint alerts would be really helpful in terms if safe driving.

Hot keys on the map screen
Have the ability to choose and add as hot keys to the map screen things like, car on shoulder, police, debris in roadway are examples... make them configurable to your most common choices... Currently while driving it takes 3 different clicks to post about a car on the shoulder, or debris in the road......hot key buttons set on the side of the screen Would help keep the eyes on the road and ensure post are made in time about the hazards..

Accident icon
Accident icon is not easily recognizable in version 3.6 specially while you are driving and only take a glance in the phone's screen. New icon is pretty similar to traffic jam reports. I think it could be redesigned as a overturned car, or adopt the design used in older versions.

Changing lanes
As a qualified driving instructor I very much like your app. However, when instructing to change lanes, your instructions often come too late often leaving the pupil straddling lanes or prevented from changing lanes. Advance warning is needed.

WAZE should allow for registering an especifc GPS coordinate when walking or driving, which could later be retrieved to create a log.
WAZE should allow for registering a series of GPS coordinate when walking or driving, which could later be retrieved to create a log of events to remember by date and time.

An option to show EV charging stations on map
Waze offers an option to indicate EV charging stations in a given area but, in order to access it you need to move out from your map.
It would be great to have the option to show EV charging stations around you while you are driving rather than having to move to a separate page.

'Plan a Delivery'
I'm a fast food delivery driver who uses Waze to get around it would be nice to have next to recent, saved places & plan a drive a plan a delivery option where you can quickly add multiple destinations similar to add a stop apart from you can add more than one and it automatically does the nearest locations first, obviously this isn't useful for people not working in delivery so I'd suggest hiding the option by default and have a delivery driver setting to reveal it
Also a must have for delivery drivers is to show the postcode of…

Help calculate ETA based on passive speeds of fellow Wazers
I'm not sure if it's already exists or not... But I'm wondering how calculations are done in terms of "estimated times of arrival"?
Is Waze passively tracking and analyzing the speed data from other Wazers while driving?
For instance, if everyone on the highway is doing 75 or 80 miles an hour ahead of you, Waze should be able to use those analytics to create a more accurate ETA.
Instead, I often find myself driving and arriving sooner than the ETA because traffic dictates driving a bit faster so as not to be unsafe.
Additionally, this could also share an…
