טיימר לעקיפה בטוחה בכביש הערבה
הבעיה:
הקטע שבין צומת הערבה לצומת קטורה בכביש 90, באורך של כ-120 ק"מ, נחשב לאחד הקטעים המסוכנים בישראל. מרבית הדרך חד-נתיבית לכל כיוון, ללא אפשרות עקיפה בטוחה – וזה יוצר לחץ, נהיגה תוקפנית ומצבים מסכני חיים על בסיס יומי.
בין השנים 2000 ל-2020 נהרגו בכביש הערבה כולו 81 בני אדם, כאשר חלק גדול מהתאונות נגרמות עקב עקיפות מסוכנות בקטעים שאינם מאפשרים עקיפה בטוחה.
הצעה לפיצ'ר מציל חיים:
Waze תוסיף התראה מתקדמת – טיימר בצד המסך או הודעה קולית/חזותית – שתעדכן את הנהג מראש על קטע דו-נתיבי מתקרב:
🕒 "בעוד 2.4 ק"מ – קטע דו-נתיבי לעקיפה בטוחה"
⏳ "המתן עוד 90 שניות – נתיב עקיפה מתקרב"
למה זה חשוב?
• מחקרים בפסיכולוגיה ובתחום התחבורה מראים שכאשר אנשים לא יודעים מתי תגיע ההזדמנות הבאה לפעולה (למשל, לעקיפה), תחושת חוסר השליטה גוברת – וזה מעלה את הסיכון לפעולות אימפולסיביות ולא זהירות.
• בנוסף, נמצא שברגע שאדם יודע כמה זמן נותר להמתין – קל לו יותר להתאפק. עיקרון זה מיושם בהצלחה בתחבורה ציבורית (לוחות זמנים בזמן אמת) וברמזורים עם ספירה לאחור, ומשפר משמעותית את רמת הסבלנות והשליטה העצמית של המשתמשים.
השורה התחתונה:
פיצ'ר פשוט. השפעה עצומה.
בכביש שבו עשרות בני אדם נהרגו – כל שיפור קטן בהתנהגות הנהגים יכול להציל חיים.בברכה,

Countdown to Safe Overtaking on Highway 90 (Arava Road)
The Problem:
The section between Arava Junction and Ketura Junction on Highway 90, approximately 120 km long, is considered one of the most dangerous stretches of road in Israel. Most of the road is a single lane in each direction, without safe overtaking options – leading to pressure, aggressive driving, and daily life-threatening situations.
Between 2000 and 2020, 81 people were killed on the Arava section of Highway 90, many of them in accidents caused by dangerous overtaking where no safe passing zones were available.
A Life-Saving Feature Suggestion:
Waze could add a smart alert – a timer on the side of the screen or a visual/audio notification – that informs drivers about the next upcoming safe overtaking section:
🕒 "In 2.4 km – Two-lane road ahead for safe overtaking"
⏳ "Wait 90 seconds – Safe passing zone approaching"
Why it matters:
• Studies in psychology and transportation show that when people lack visibility or control, especially on monotonous roads with no clear overtaking options, their frustration and risk-taking behavior increase.
• Research also shows that when drivers know how long they need to wait, patience rises, and impulsiveness drops. This principle is successfully used in countdown timers at crosswalks, traffic lights, and public transit – and could be just as effective in driving apps.
Bottom line:
A small feature. A massive impact.
On a road where dozens have lost their lives – even a small shift in driver behavior could save lives.הבעיה:

Parking spaces available in car parks in real time
Several cities around the world have a real-time feed of available spaces in their parking lots.
It would be really relevant to be able to have it in Waze so that we can be guided directly to the city center or bus/tram hub. Currently Waze allows you to get around perfectly, but concretely, once you arrive in town, it does not help you to park, so the purpose is not achieved in a certain way. It’s also a matter of sustainability. Waze should help for less time and gaz wasted.
Morover many cities with real time feed have digital screen to show availables parkings, but then, should we follow Waze, or the city's directions ? With the same datas, Waze keep the wheel.On the Google forum, speakers from Brazil, the Netherlands and France asked the same question. We have an api with a json feed updated by the minute.
Also Strasbourg, Luxembourg, etc…
So Waze could use historic form datas and foreseen avaibilities. And in real time guide cars to the best parking lot with some kind of prediction, putting aside full or almost full ones.

Talmudic Measurements
In addition to the imperial and metric systems of measurement currently available on the Waze app, would it be possible to add another system, which the voice instructions would use? I’m thinking of the Talmudic system of measurement (tefakh, amah, ris, mil, parsah). Many in Israel would be interested in utilizing these measurements because it would be a practical application of a currently abstract system.

Allow to rename "Home/Work" labels or at least give option to hide the "Home/Work" icons displayed on the maps
Allowing to rename the Home/Work labels or give the option to not show the Home/Work icons on the maps would be a really useful option to help wazers keep their personal information private. For example I often have work collegues and clients in my car and whenever I drive near my home it's clearly labeled on the map exactly where I live. I do not want everyone at work and clients knowing my home address.. Whenever I have to drive with collegues/clients in my car, I switch to using the iOS Maps app so no one will see my address, which sucks because I prefer using the waze gps..!

Siri Shortcuts for reporting - PLEASE
How about enabling Siri interaction so users can report things hands-free? “Siri, tell Waze to report police” or “Siri, tell Waze to report a stopped vehicle on the shoulder” would be a lot safer and easier while driving than fumbling with the phone or CarPlay UI. Please consider it.

Feature to Avoid Specific Road
I really do love Waze! You guys are great! But can you PLEASE add an option to avoid specific roads (or steps of a route)? There’s a route that Waze directs me on my commute daily, both ways, that includes 2 roads that are extremely dangerous. I don’t mean difficult intersections or something like that. I mean regularly reported gun violence, car jackings at stop signs/lights, and gang activity. I literally had this map editing option back in the days of printing out mapquest directions… any kind of option would be wonderful! Thank you!

Ability to Select HOV Routes in Carplay
Right now, when checking different routes, you cannot select an HOV route in Carplay (they just do not show up). You can still select it in the iOS app, but for some reason the Carplay app won't accept the route when you select it from the app. It requires you to select a route on the Carplay app (which doesn't include the HOV routes).
The only workaround I found is to set the HOV route before you connect to Carplay, but if you update the route during the trip, it loses the HOV route ability unless you disconnect Carplay while driving, which is not safe.

Motocicli 50cc e 125cc
In Italia esiste il problema che sulle tangenziali non si può circolare con una cilindrata inferiore ai 150cc, quindi chi utilizza un 125cc oppure un 50cc e serve utilizzare waze sarebbe bello come opzione evitare le tangenziali. Grazie
In Italy there is the problem that on the ring roads it is not possible to circulate with a displacement of less than 150cc, so those who use a 125cc or a 50cc and need to use waze would be nice as an option to avoid the ring roads. Thank you

Enable automatic night mode for tunnel segments
It would be a nice addition to Waze to get automatic night mode for tunnel segments.
We're already adding the necessary information for this feature when creating tunnel segments.

Mejorar la seguridad en la vía
Para mejorar la seguridad de los conductores en la vía, especialmente en Colombia, se debería:
-Crear una notificación por voz que sugiera disminuir la velocidad por la existencia de baches peligrosos en la vía.
- Permitir a los usuarios "pintar" los baches en la vía con un color que les permita a otros usuarios darse cuenta de la posición exacta de los mismos. De igual manera, se les permita "borrar" los baches que vayan siendo reparados.
- Permitir la descarga previa de la ruta con notificaciones sobre baches para evitar accidentes por pérdida de conectividad.20 votes -
Distance to overtaking lane
On australian highways we have overtaking lanes at various distances along the road. It would be nice to know the distance to the next overtaking lane to allow people to wait instead of making risky overtaking moves when the next overtaking lane is only 1km away

Add an audio player to the list of compatible apps with Waze
You should add an audio player that can play audio files that are on the phone itself to the list of compatible music apps so you can listen to your own files and recordings while using Waze, not just radio or other broadcasting apps. For example a recording of a lecture from your professor that you have on your phone.

Go back to the old format for alerts. Color & Location
Blue for police, orange for hazards. It's more eye-catching. Having the alerts near the bottom really doesn't catch the eye. Before the change was made I didn't even have to glance at my phone I could see the colors and icon through my peripheral vision

Providing an alternative route if vehicle dimensions don't match
Waze would be even more impressive if the dimensions of the vehicle could be added by the owner of the vehicle. Thus providing safety entering tunnels, small roads etc and more important providing an alternative route

Variable Toll versus Fixed Toll opton
A lot of users want Waze to add additional features for variable tolls but all I am asking for is for Waze to recoginze the difference between fixed tolls and varaible tolls. I've come to the conclusion that Waze is pretty much unusable for my comute from Falls Church to Herndon, VA becuase it either wants to take me on the unaffordable express lanes OR avoid the reasonable Dulles Toll Road.
