Vibrate Notifications
Give the user the option to turn-on "vibrate notifications" in addition to voice. Many times when driving I am distracted talking to a passenger or listening to the radio and miss a turn.
It would be great if my phone would also vibrate. I would like to have this option for police notifications as well.
If this were an option, then those that don't want vibrate notifications don't have to use it.9 votes -

Voice navigation starts route straight away
When on a route I sometimes need to say 'take me to the nearest gas station' when I need to fill up and do not know the nearest but want to add a stop.
However it then prompts me to click on a particular option, which is illegal when driving. You should implement 'select XXX' feature or just start a diversion to the nearest so I don't have to pull over to touch the screen.
Even when saying 'Take me to BP insert town' it still has to do a search and you have to click - it won't…

JEREMY CLARKSON
A Modest Proposal: Jeremy Clarkson for Waze Voice Navigation
Dear Waze Team,
Let’s cut to the chase — Waze is brilliant. But you know what would make it truly exceptional?
Jeremy Clarkson.
Not just as a voice. As a driving philosophy. Imagine:
“Turn left... or don’t. I’m not your mother.”
“Traffic ahead. Caused, presumably, by a Prius.”
“You've arrived. It's no racetrack, but it'll do.”
"In 200 meters Turn left-- unless you drive a beige Volvo. In which case, please stay home"
Clarkson is the voice of speed, sarcasm, and barely-contained road rage — everything a morning commute needs. Give…6 votes -
important traffic signs on waze map
in order to increase the safety of wasers and other traffic participants, what do you say if on the waze map will be the important traffic signs like: priority road, give way, stop, no stopping, no entry, one way, pedestrian crossing, level crossing; there are a lot of hiden signs by buildings, vegetation or by other reason those important signs are not seen and this goes to traffic events and it can be avoided if waze drivers are warned by their devices (if voice is activated)

Create a free instruction in case of change of name on a freeway
On a freeway, when the name changes without the direction changing, there is no voice instruction that is appropriate. We can only use a "Continue straight", which we might hear miles earlier.
My suggestion is, inside the Visual instruction, to have a free instruction available, which in this case could be "You are entering on A7". Why in Visual instruction? Precisely to avoid hearing the voice instruction miles earlier. Since the Visual instruction is not subject to propagation, make sure it is useful, which is the case here.

send XMPP message when nearing destination (Jabber)
some people are offended by outdated technology that requires one to pay for unwanted messages (sms).
It is beyond inane to use sms on a smartphone when XMPP is far more featured, FREE, secure.
Waze could further advertise the service with its own XMPP server. This would facilitate such messages, enhance social features, and expand the wondedful world of federation. Prosody and Tigase are great server options.
