  1. Be able to block roads only for you

    Be able to block roads only for you would be great. Here in Stockholm we have some main roads in the city where you are not allowed to drive with studded winter tyres. It would be nice to be able to block them so that Waze does not have the ability to choose them.

  2. Option to Move Navigation Icons to the Left for Improved Driver Safety

    I would like Waze to consider adding an option to move the Speed, Your Trip, Search, and Report an Issue icons from the right side of the screen to the left.

    With larger, vertically oriented infotainment screens becoming increasingly common, these icons often sit farther away from the driver’s natural field of vision, especially in left-hand-drive vehicles. This requires drivers to look farther to the right, potentially increasing the time their eyes are off the road.

    A simple Left/Right Icon Placement setting would offer three key benefits:

    • Improved Safety: Reduces unnecessary eye movement and potentially shortens the time drivers look…

  6. Gps coordinate

    Subject: Feature Request / Parser Bug: Support DMS coordinate parsing with typographic symbols (Unicode primes/smart quotes)
    Description:
    The Waze search input parser fails to resolve valid geographic coordinates when pasted in the standard Degrees, Minutes, and Seconds (DMS) format containing typographic Unicode characters (such as curly apostrophes, prime, and double prime symbols).
    Example of failing input:
    50°9’49.079″N, 15°26’14.410″E
    Root Cause & Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Paste coordinates containing typographic prime symbols (’ U+2019 / ″ U+2033) or degree symbols (°) into the Waze search bar.
    2. The search parser fails to sanitize/normalize the string into standard floating-point WGS84 decimal degrees…

  7. I am pleased to hear Waze ties with Garmin Live Track to show cyclists. Recommend Wahoo also; as a cyclist, how can I help?

    I lost a friend and had many injured in Saturday’s drunk driver crash in Apex NC. I see Waze is now showing cyclists via Garmin’s live track. I suggest that’s about half the picture; recommend adding Wahoo’s similar live tracking. Also, how can I help? I ride with rear radar and front and rear cameras, lights, and bright clothing. Anything I can do to be more visible, I’m all for it.

  9. URGENT - cyclists as pins on the road is more dangerous to cyclists

    Hello, cyclist of 20 years. I road my first half century in 2005 on a mountain bike. In 2006, I bought my first road bike. I love people getting out on bikes and having a good time. Yet I also heavily modify my cycling (than just staying in the bike lane) to deal with dumb drivers who learned different road 'rules' (in order to have not been hit by a moving car in the 2 decades I have been riding for).

    I would like to share my concerns with this PR announcement made today 10 Nov 2026 on instagram (with…

  11. notification

    Bonjour,
    Cela m’arrive déjà plusieurs fois : je reçois une alerte « véhicule sur le bas-côté ». Lorsque j’appuie sur « Oui » pour répondre, cinq alertes pour le même problème reviennent ensuite.
    Ce serait bien de corriger cela : une seule alerte devrait suffire pour le même problème sur la route. Merci d’améliorer ce fonctionnement.

  12. prevent secondary collisions and save lives

    Hello,

    Following today's tragic 50-vehicle pile-up in Bulgaria, I'd like to suggest a potentially life-saving feature.

    Could Waze and Google Maps use smartphone sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS) to automatically detect accidents and immediately alert approaching drivers?

    Cross-checking signals from multiple nearby devices could help prevent false alerts.

    Such a feature could prevent secondary collisions and save lives, especially in large highway pile-ups where every second matters.

    Thank you for considering this idea!

  14. Trucker gps I drive a truck for a living

    I drive a truck for a living and it would be awesome to have the trucker route option available that avoids roadways that don’t allow trailers/ commercial vehicles. In New York waze will put you on roads you cannot be on with trailers so i always have to run another gps alongside. Having a Trucker route option available would also bring a lot more users

  15. Add “Studded tyres” setting to avoid prohibited streets

    Please add a vehicle setting: “My car has studded tyres”. When enabled, Waze should automatically exclude streets where studded tyres are prohibited, including when recalculating a route during navigation.

    This is particularly useful in Stockholm, Sweden, where some streets have studded tyre restrictions. Drivers need a legal route from the start, rather than discovering the restriction when they reach a road sign.

    Please also display these restrictions on the map and warn users if their destination cannot be reached without entering a restricted street.

  18. linke&mittlere, linke&rechte, rechte&mittlere Spur gesperrt als Unterkategorie von gesperrte Spur

    ich war gestern unterwegs, da waren die linke und die mittlere gesperrt aber die rechte frei. dann musste ich zweimal melden einmal das die linke gesperrt ist und dann noch die mittlere und das während dem Auto fahren war ziemlich riskant und auch nervig. gerade auch auf Autobahnen nützlich wenns von 3 auf 1 spurig geht, was bei mir im Süden auf der A8 durchaus schonmal vorkommt. Einfach als Unterkategorie bei Gesperrte Spur

  19. lane closed

    Dear Waze Support Team,

    I would like to suggest a small but potentially very useful improvement to the hazard reporting feature in the Waze app.

    I have noticed that users frequently report a lane as being closed (left lane closed / right lane closed), even though, in many cases, the actual situation is simply a lane narrowing or roadworks. In my opinion, this is largely due to the way the reporting menu is currently structured.

    When users want to report a hazard, the first option presented is "Lane Closed". To select other types of road hazards, users have to navigate…

  20. Nursery/Daycare Zones

    Hi Waze Team and Community,

    Waze has done an incredible job with the roll-out of School Zone alerts. I would love to suggest extending this logical safety feature to include "Nursery/Daycare Zones." While school zones are vital, nursery zones present unique risks that warrant distinct hazard mapping:
    1. Vulnerable Pedestrians: These areas see a high concentration of parents handling strollers, toddlers, and infants, who move much slower than older schoolchildren.
    2. Different Peak Times: Nursery drop-offs and pick-ups are often scattered throughout the day rather than concentrated in rigid morning/afternoon windows. Allowing Level 4+ Map Editors to map permanent polygon…
