Add information/instructions on when to add a pass
My suggestion is for the following feature:
Either:
Add an information panel when users enter the Toll and HOV passes page for the first time, informing them that adding passes may route them into areas or through restricted roads.
Or:
Allow us to add information against each pass/permit, giving the user guidance as to what each pass is for.My suggestion solves this problem:
There is less chance that the user will select a pass/permit that they shouldn’t have due to the misunderstanding of how the pass system works.In more words:
Now that Passes/Permits that users have added to their accounts are being passed through to URs in the editor, it’s become obvious that users are adding passes that they shouldn’t be adding. This may be down to a misunderstanding of how the Pass system works. Do the users think they must add the pass to avoid such routes? Maybe.
Adding instructions to the Passes screen or information to each pass individually (preferred) on when to add the pass will give the user a better experience and not be routed where they shouldn’t be but also reduce the amount of URs being raised due to these unexpected routes.My suggestion is for the following feature:

Please get the driver display working for AAOS
Im sure everyone noticed this right away that waze is not working on the driver display, which is how these systems were designed to be used. Please get this working ASAP so i can stop using Google maps.

In-app option to turn off familiarity capping
Give the users the option to always display Speed Cameras and Hazards that familiarity capping would otherwise remove from the display.

About large vehicles
Waze currently does not support heavy vehicles. However, large vehicles also cause traffic congestion, so it would be better to deal with them in the future.
Supporting larger vehicles allows you to collect more information. This information includes important information for understanding traffic conditions, such as the location and situation of traffic jams and road conditions.
Collecting this information allows Waze to provide you with more accurate traffic information. This allows drivers to avoid traffic jams or choose the best route if they are stuck in traffic.
However, supporting large vehicles also increases the burden on the server. Therefore, a possible method would be to charge a fee for large vehicles and use that fee to cover the burden on the server.
This method increases the burden on users of large vehicles. However, it is considered a necessary measure to alleviate traffic congestion and provide more accurate traffic information.
In conclusion, Waze would be better suited for larger vehicles. However, I think there should be a charge for large vehicles to compensate for the burden on the servers.

Rest areas along the route should be reported. Drivers will likely get tempted to type while driving if they suddenly need a rest area
Rest areas should be on the report along the route. Report should include something like “Rest Area 5 miles ahead”

Problem: speed limit audible alerts stop even though i'm still speeding. I need loud annorying audible alerts that don't stop, while speeding.
I need more customization of the audible speeding alerts, so i don't get speeding tickets.17 votes -
Automatically route
Automatically route address based on voice input like Google maps.
I am tired of saying navigating to a particular address and then Waze forces me to select and confirm after clearly specifying where I would like to go.
Can you please make it like Google Maps where you say it once and it takes you there.

Inclusão de Quebra-molas como aviso perene.
Creio que as lombadas ou quebra-molas deveriam ter uma opção de alerta de obstáculo perene. Existem muitos deles sem sinalização formal e a opção perene, assim como radares, evitaria muitos acidentes.

Car icon personalization
Be able to change the colors of the vehicles because I love the pickup truck but the only color right now is pink, and I know it’s not a huge deal but I think it would be so much more fun if we could pick the vehicle type then change the color to whatever we would like!

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.

Finger hold for icon placement
When placing a hazard or police location on the map, currently you have to tap on the screen to bring up the choices, tap for police, tap again for their location and then tap again to place it on the map. Why not after the first tap, if you keep your finger on the screen, automatically show the options, slide your finger to the one you want, and then once your finger is released, the icon drops straight into the map.
Simple and less steps to get the right icon on the map and also lessens the time concentrating on your phone rather than the road.When placing a hazard or police location on the map, currently you have to tap on the screen to bring up the choices, tap for police, tap again for their location and then tap again to place it on the map.

Disable this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately
Dear Waze.
My name is Mykhailo. and i'm a QA lead from Ukraine in a similar product as you.
I've been using your app for years, which I'm thankful for.Today, in this dark age, our country use your app to get away from hot spots to west.
Although , the feature that expose Police spots helps russian's separatists escape.
PLEASE I'm begging you to disable (at least temporary) this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately .17 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.

3 differents driver profil
Today, the user profile is not taking into account by the algorithm. I hope in the future Waze will propose, not only the fatest road, but the road adapted to the user.
We will use for example 3 different profiles :
- the busy driver : this will always proposes the fastest road but it will add more weights to highway where overtaking car is possible
- the thrifty driver : always proposing the road with the cheapest path (combination of distance, height difference, ...)
- the tourist driver: this will propose road with points of interest (monuments, landscape).I imagine two ways of integrate those profiles : 1) creating the account; 2) with a specific icon at each search
