Allow users to make a report for an area they aren't currently in
Sometimes, you don't have the chance to report something while you are present at the scene - and currently, Waze offers no option to report something in a different area, despite having the ability to 'pin' locations to share them.

Option to avoid C area roads in Israel
When I drive in Israel I plan my route in order to avoid crossing a checkpoint and c areas. Sometimes, waze automatically changes my route in order to avoid traffic making me drive in certain areas I’m not willing to. Adding an option to avoid those roads as well as A and B areas can be helpful.

Waze Learn the Area mode
Learn your way around a new town with Waze.
When entering your selection Waze would give you a step by step guide to the route that the user tries to memorise.
The user then drives the route and learns their way around their new surroundings. As they approach junctions and turns they can confirm via voice that they are taking the correct route, and Waze will confirm or correct.
Using this mode can help people learn new surroundings or be used by new drivers.2 votes -

Then if the option is active avoid this areas.

Restrict areas
I think so interesting a button for activate a ways out of restrict areas. In some capital here in Brazil we have a restrict days and hours to move inside the city(in Portuguese language is called Dia de Rodizio). This feature could help us to create alternative for dont enter inside this areas. Do you know what I you mean?
This feature will be transform waze for the best app in Brazil.
If you need a better information about my idea be my guest to contact me.21 votes -

Restricted areas feature
Give people the ability to label areas within waze as "not safe" so waze can route loved ones around high crime areas. This would not be a crowd sourced data point but a parent could label parts of town (think...draw a polygon around an area) as restricted or unsafe. This would keep vulnerable children out of high crime areas or areas with known offenders.

24 hours ago I had an accident that marked my life incredibly , I waze shot by an alternate route as the main highway was closed by arrangements . I collided and the worst was not that was in the area where I crashed . I do this because I want to know if there is any way that the waze app you can incorporate a notice as DANGER, DANGER ZONE between another , and so one assesses whether or not to go for it. Because I am a driver which much of the time with the app is run,…
