Road Colouring on Average Speed Check Zone
When driving in an average speed check zone, Waze doesn’t say when you have left it - so can be driving for miles past the end.
Can Waze change the colour or pattern of the road to show drivers when they are in the zone and not just passing the cameras.17 votes -
Añadir a la app la opción de ir a pie y ir en bicicleta.
Al tener como opción tan solo vehículos de motor no para de recalcular rutas y girar el mapa, hasta que al final es muy difícil seguir la localización que quieres. Waze funciona excelente y esta opción sería una buena herramienta. Estube en Holanda desplazándome en bicicleta y a pie y tube que descartar su uso, ya que me mandava muy lejos debido a que calculaba para vehículos. Es una opción que daría muchos puntos a la aplicación. Muchas gracias

We are planning to implement this idea.

Danger Alarm(Warn Dangerous Points in the Roads)
Hello . I live in Iran. Every year in our country, 30000 die in traffic accident and many injure. There are some places in our roads that frequently accidents happen in the places. One place that I know is the entrance of our city from highway that sometimes bad accidents happen in there. This is because of the inaccurate and inefficient design of the roads. Those who are familiar with the place mostly ride carefully in the dangerous part of the roads, and accidents often happen for those that are unfamiliar with the road.
I suggest that an alarm to be added to the app that warn the places. Like, "500m to dangerous point”. Or there can be used 3 alarms; “Low dangerous area”, “dangerous area” and “highly dangerous area”.
Now, people aware each other the locations of cameras or polices by the app. It can be for the dangerous areas also.
1) people suggest the dangerous points and the system consider the point that most is voted as dangerous points.
2) People can just click the dangerous point when they see an accident and gradually the system learns the dangerous points.
3) Or the system can obtain the information using the police documents.
Approximately 1.35 million people die each year as a result of road traffic crashes. The alarm can be helpful for other countries also.
Even one life is so important. I think the idea works.
Sincerely

Improve routing server system
Help customers by giving consistent, high-quality service through your routing server.
I am a long-time user of Waze and I live in Dayton, Ohio. In more than one quarter of my travels, Waze fails with a "routing server timeout" not just once each time, but repeatedly until I stop trying. Grrrrr.
The failure rate is even higher when I travel outside of the Dayton area. Please fix your service or redesign the routing server logic.
- On long trips, I have to select smaller subsets of my route in order to receive traffic-based guidance.
Then I have to enter the next subset of my route in order to receive traffic-based guidance, and so on toward my eventual destination.
- If you redesign your service you can avoid this bad level of service by doing just what I have to do (but you can do it within Waze's logic):
- Assemble and return the results from multiple subsets of the requested journey, with no failure and no annoying message to frustrate customers.Help customers by giving consistent, high-quality service through your routing server.

Regular commute notification
Like most of people, I have a regular work schedule, my commute to work is always the same time and route. I do not have to check my navigation app every morning, but when something unusual happens on my route, I think I should be notified.
Most of us are using navigation apps when traveling, or going somewhere for the first time. But most of our driving time is commuting to work. We should be able to program our commuting times and routes in these apps for whatever schedule we have. If we are driving fide days a week from home to work, our phone should know it. Most of all, if there is traffic or road work on our way, waze should ring an alarm to wake you up earlier or to prevent getting in this traffic.
Most days our driving time is about the same, so you do not have to check your navigation app every morning or every night. Our phone should only alert us when something unusual happens that would prevent us being on time.

multiple reoccuring beep option when speed limit threshold is exceeded.
Being able to set a reoccuring beep (instead of just one beep) when the speed threshhold is exceed is very necessary. This way speed cameras can be avoided and one is reminded what the speed limit is. Also, it is necessary to be able to add temporary speed limits into the trip line. These may or may not be permanent, but important just the same due to temporary speed cameras.

No left without light option
I find too option Waze has me make Left turns where there is no Lights at these very difficult intersections. I think an option to avoid left left turns without lights altogether would be much easier and much safer. It would definitly benefit me.

Turn off labels of streetnames while navigating
Sometimes long streetnames overlap that much of the map that large parts of the maps or even (future) instructions are not visible anymore on the map.
I would like to see an option to disable the streetname flags on the map while navigating.
An example of what I mean can be found in this URL:

Add address numbers when arrived
Need to add address (number and street) when on final street instead of saying "you have arrived at your destination". Uber and Lyft drivers use waze and need to know address. We look at mail boxes as we drive down the street. Sometimes the x is not in the same location as the address but we can't see the address.
Thank you for your consideration.18 votes -

Variable Speed Limit Sign Integration
Here in Northeast Ohio in our construction zones we have "Variable Speed Limit" signs. They are used to reduce the speed limit on a streth of road only when the work zone is active. Example stretches are the Interstate 271/480 stretch in Bedford and again on Interstate 480 in Parma. The 271/480 signs will be in use til 2021 according to the construction plan.
There are several solutions:
1) When entering reported construction zone there could be a pop up presented asking for current speed with known work zone MPH listed (see below)
2) After pressing the speedometer/speed limit a Wazer could select variable work zone limit in effect
3) When marking a construction zone on the editor or within the app there could be an additional selection box for reporting if variable speed limits are in use.One 271/480 the posted speed limit is 60 MPH, the variable speed signs are used as follows:
50 MPH - Active work zone on your side
55 MPH - Active work zone on other side
60 MPH - No active work zoneHere in Northeast Ohio in our construction zones we have "Variable Speed Limit" signs.
