US English Pronunciations are Odd
Place names sound weird at times.
Sounds hilarious to be driving from ""Pali-men-oh C-t" to "Muh-leek-a Hill" to the "Commode-door Barry Bridge" on 322 to "west CHESTER" to my final destination of a business called a "Koh".
Oh and also "Deptford" shouldn't sound like "Depped-FORD".
Well at least you have Sewell and Mantua correct. Gloucester is kinda ok.

Alerting
I was driving in Chicago today and Ashland Ave is closed over the bridge. Since I was driving by myself I couldn't report on the go as I don't use my phone while driving. I was hoping that there is a way to still report that is is closed to warn people not to get off of 55 and head west on Ashland Ave.

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.

Waze is a good app, but as a truck driver, it does not offer the option for commercial vehicles to avoid low bridges or parkways. If this feature was added, it would make the app more useful for everyone. I would like to see this capability added and updated in Waze.

Trucker Version
Develop a trucker setting, or perhaps an entirely separate 'Trucker Waze' app for those of us running larger vehicles. We need to know about low clearance overpasses/bridges, narrow lanes and one lane bridges, weight restrictions, etc. For example, I pull oversized trailers up and down the East Coast (USA). I am 14'6" high, and 10'6" wide. You could even buy Trucker Path and add all the Waze functionality...

Toll Transponder Preferences (for Exclusive Exits & Lanes)
In Pennsylvania (and other states, such as Florida) there are exits on toll roads that are only for holders of a certain toll transponder (such as E-ZPass) and have no cash facilities. Unlike all-electronic toll roads, using one of these ramps without a transponder is a "violation". There are also HOT (High Occupancy Toll) and Express lanes that require a transponder but may even allow for special transponders that give free rides to carpools.
Waze used to direct me to one of these ramps, which is closest to my house. However, likely because people without toll tags have been sent…

Truck Driver friendly
I would love to see a truck driver (class A and class B) friendly to where truck drivers can see height of bridges and the maximum weight capacity it holds. This would open up some much more interest for people and increase usage. My spouse hates google maps and Apple Maps because they never work for him he loves wazes but wishes it incorporates truck drivers. Please take this into consideration I would appreciate it so much thank you.

WaterWaze - River Safety
I am a kayaker and I know I see a LOT of folks on Facebook trying to figure out where items of importance/danger are on their paths - sweepers (trees that have fallen over the water but not gone under), strainers (trees that have fallen into the water, and other debris, as well as places that are good to put-in and take out, or such places that might not be accessible anymore. Water levels/gauges, dams, bridges, shallow spots, dangerous spots... the ability for someone on the water to note any of these things and have it available (especially if…

Waze version for oversized vehicles like buses and trucks
A waze version where you can input the size of your vehicle so that it will navigate avoiding low bridges and tight corners and narrow roads. This will help school buses, touring buses, RVs, and trucks. Is this in the plans for Waze? I love the app for my normal sized vehicle (cars and pickup trucks). THANK YOU.

I'd like to suggest that WAZE add a better navigation route for driver of RV's, 18 wheelers and Boxtrucks. So that larger size vehicles as such will be routed to areas that doesn't have low power lines and narrow bridges, etc. Thank you

An option to reduce the thickness size of streets and avenues!! Read the description to see examples!!
This option would greatly help in cases where there are many nearby streets and avenues, and bridges above these streets and avenues, not allowing us to see clearly the way we should go, or if we must keep at right or left on the track.
For example this screenshot:

Police
Pls add Police alert option “Cop on Top”.
In our country, the police likes to hide on the overhead bridges.
I used to be able to go back and comment “Cop on Top” or “Cop at Bus Lane” but that feature has been removed ?5 votes
