Feature Suggestion — Predictive Traffic & Resilient Navigation
Hello,
I'm a navigation app user from Costa Rica, and I'd like to share an idea that I believe could significantly improve how we navigate traffic, especially in highly congested cities.
What if navigation apps could optimize routes not only based on current and predicted traffic, but also on historical incident patterns and the driver's ability to escape unexpected congestion?
I understand that modern navigation systems already incorporate historical traffic data and predictive algorithms. However, I see an opportunity to take this further.
Here are five capabilities I'd love to see:
Historical Incident Intelligence: Analyze recurring accidents, road closures, and congestion patterns to identify locations and time windows with a higher likelihood of disruption.
Predictive Risk Assessment: Use AI to estimate the probability of traffic disruptions along a route based on historical patterns, current conditions, and the estimated time the driver will reach each road segment.
Route Resilience: Evaluate not only the fastest route but also how many viable alternative roads or exits are available if something unexpected happens.
Personalized Navigation Preferences: Let drivers choose between the fastest route, the most reliable route, or a more flexible route that reduces the risk of becoming trapped in traffic.
Proactive Rerouting: Warn drivers before entering road segments with limited alternatives, allowing them to make better decisions before it's too late.
For example, I might prefer a 35-minute route with multiple escape options over a 30-minute highway route where a single accident could leave me trapped for an hour.
The fastest route isn't always the smartest route.
I believe combining predictive traffic intelligence with route resilience could represent a meaningful evolution in navigation.
This could be particularly valuable in Latin American cities, where congestion is unpredictable and navigation apps are essential to everyday mobility.
I'm sharing this freely as a product suggestion, with no expectation of compensation or ownership. I simply hope it inspires something useful for millions of drivers.
Best regards,
Diego Chan

Improving the accuracy of road visualization in Waze
I don't know why, but when I use Waze and look at its maps, the roads don't seem to be represented accurately.
What I mean is that sometimes there is a sharp bend ahead, but on the map the bend is barely noticeable. On the other hand, Waze sometimes shows a sharp bend on the map, while in reality the road has only a very slight curve.
Is there any way to improve the accuracy of the map representation?1 vote -
Stationary Vehicle on Road
Suggestion: Add a “Stationary Vehicle on the Road” Alert
I regularly encounter vehicles that have broken down or stopped unexpectedly in the middle of the road. These situations can be dangerous, especially when approaching at higher speeds or in poor visibility.
Currently, there doesn’t seem to be an option to report a stationary vehicle blocking or standing on the roadway.
I believe adding a specific alert, such as “Stationary Vehicle on Road”, would be a valuable safety feature. It would allow drivers to warn other road users in advance, giving them more time to slow down, change lanes safely, or avoid a potentially dangerous situation.
I think this would be a useful addition to Waze and could help prevent accidents and improve road safety for everyone.

Problème de timing et de formulation avec l'option "Moins bavard"
Bonjour, j'utilise Waze avec l'option "Moins bavard", mais il y a un réel problème de cohérence avec les indications.
Par exemple, pour un virage, la voix indique directement de tourner sans annoncer la distance, ce qui fait qu'on se trompe de rue lorsqu'une autre petite route se présente juste avant. De même, pour l'arrivée, la voix annonce qu'on est arrivé alors qu'il reste encore quelques mètres à parcourir, ce qui oblige à chercher la bonne adresse partout.
Il faudrait qu'il y ait une vraie cohérence entre la voix et la réalité sur la route (en annonçant par exemple les distances comme « À 200 mètres, tournez à droite » ou en ajustant le signal d'arrivée) pour que cela ne porte plus à confusion.

ZTL
Sarebbe molto utile un avviso pop-up a tutto schermo o più evidente quando si imposta una destinazione dentro una ZTL, per evitare di cliccare 'Partenza' per errore e finirci dentro con tanto di multa (parecchio salata).

Import gpx files
Please add GPX route import and navigation to Waze, including Apple CarPlay support.
I'm a motorcycle rider in Western Australia. I plan scenic rides on my desktop PC and save them as GPX files.
Waze is my preferred navigation app because of its excellent live traffic, hazard, breakdown, police and speed-camera alerts, along with Siri voice control through CarPlay.
What I need is the ability to import a GPX route, follow its intended roads and waypoints, and retain Waze's existing real-time warnings. Ideally, Waze would warn about road closures or hazards without automatically replacing the planned scenic route with the fastest alternative.

This would benefit motorcyclists, touring drivers, classic-car enthusiasts and anyone who wants to follow a carefully planned journey rather than simply reach a destination.
GPX route support would make Waze my preferred navigation app for virtually every ride

verbal command to app to notify of road hazards to eliminate physically interacting with phone or vehicles infotainment system
A verbal command system to the app to enter input of road hazards to eliminate physically interacting with phone or vehicles infotainment system.
As ALL Australian road users utilizing Waze to navigate their way, it has been a very hot topic that police will be introducing heavy fines for merely notifying other users of roads hazards but also speed camera locations.I think this would be a brilliant idea to ensure Waze continues to be a highly regarded and highly popular app for road users in Australia.

Nagyszerű lenne, ha lenne lehetőség a Waze applikációban beállítani az utánfutós közlekedést, és ennek megfelelő sebességhatárokkal-kanyarokkal és időkkel tervezné az utat a rendszer.

To me, the idea of Halloween is associated with evil—with the devil. It cannot be from God. The app should remain neutral. But if it insists on taking a side that I perceive as demonic, I will stop using it and switch exclusively to Google Maps. Furthermore, it is absurd that Waze provides information on the locations of police operations or checkpoints, as this could facilitate a kidnapping, abduction, or robbery. It’s absurd.

Abschnittskontrollzonen sollten unabhängig von Blitzerwarnungen deaktivierbar sein
Abschnittskontrollzonen sollten unabhängig von Blitzerwarnungen deaktivierbar sein. Ich würde gerne die Warnung für eine Section Control deaktivieren, ohne die normalen Blitzerwarnungen zu deaktivieren.
Weiters wäre es noch eine tolle Sache, bekannte Blitzer/Warnungen individuell zu deaktivieren/aktivieren, zum Beispiel Blitzer/Section Controls bei denen man jeden Tag vorbeifährt und sie somit sowieso kennt

Affichage des options d’itinéraire
Depuis la dernière mise à jour, l’affichage des options d’itinéraire s’affiche sur un tout petit encart sur l’écran de l’Apple CarPlay.
Il faut faire défiler les différents options d’itinéraire sur un tout petit carré alors qu’avant, les options s’affichaient de manière très visible sur un seul même encart.
Nous n’avions pas besoin de faire défiler les trois ou quatre options d’itinéraires.
Il y a sans doute un problème de compatibilité avec l’application CarPlay.
Je constate cela sur un grand écran, tactile d’un Renault Scénic électrique qui dispose d’un grand écran.
