Haas Alert
Have WAZE alert and show on the map if the Emergency vehicle is equipped with the Haas Alert System. This would be both the Approaching Emergency Vehicle and Emergency Vehicle Ahead.

Stay on Major Road Option, Longer Distance, Faster Time
Give a route option to stay on MAJOR roads, state roads and highways, and choice of a slightly longer distance, but shorter time driving. Waze always takes me off the interstate or major state road to save a few miles off of my route, but in doing so I go through every stop sign, speed table, neighborhood and school zone possible. Sure it saved me a couple of miles, but added loads of frustrating time to my drive, increased gas usage and increased wear and tear on my car.
Not only that, the start and stopping of these shorter…

Automatic zoom and popup alert
Scale slider to set automatic zoom scale/speed on map! I would like set zoom level, it is too much sudden!
Popup alert are too big! Many time is very difficult follow the route because alerts cover the map for too much time. An idea can be a banner in a side of the screen! Keep the map on the screen.
My compliments for this amazing app5 votes -
Timing for Alert
Please kindly bring back timing for alert to auto disappear after the driver have passed the affected area. for the current version affecting most AA user, driver have to manually choose there or not there. having to remove the attention on the road to the screen while driving at 100km/h is extremely dangerous, especially just to choose there or not there option. if driver didn't make the choice, the alert will stuck on the screen for the rest of the drive, and no further alert will be given. using Samsung Galaxy 21 Ultra.

Allow reporting of New Incidents while an Alert is active (Android Auto)
When using Waze on Android Auto, if an active alert (e.g., speed camera, crash, lane closure) is currently displayed on the screen, the button to report a new incident becomes inaccessible or disappears.
To submit a new report, the driver is currently forced to first accept or close the existing alert. This is highly impractical and potentially unsafe while driving.This limitation prevents users from easily reporting multiple, co-located events (like a lane closure and a crash) in densely populated areas where multiple things often happen near each other.
I suggest that the Report Button should remain visible and…

Change position of Alert Banner option
Have the option to move where alerts pop up. As it stands, alerts popping up at the bottom replacing the box where ETA is shown is incredibly annoying, especially when you're trying to either reroute or search something up. Let us pick where the alert pops up.

traffic alert in highway
as a Waze user, I'd like to receive a voice traffic alert when traveling on a highway (at highway speeds) and the map shows traffic on the route. Also, I'd like to have the configuration option to enable or disable it.

Alternativní trasy/ Display distance difference for alternative routes
Poprosím u alternativních tras kromě času zobrazovat i kilometry:
Prakticky by stačila informace +4 min (barvou červenou) a -12 km (barvou zelenou).
jedná se o jasnou a rychlou informací. Jasná informace - pojedu déle, ale kratší trasou než je ta svájící navolená.
moc by mi to pomohlo. Děkuji LiHPlease display the distance difference alongside the time for alternative routes.
A simple indicator like "+4 min" (red) and "-12 km" (green) would provide instant clarity. It would allow drivers to quickly see if an alternative route is longer in time but shorter in distance compared to the current one. This…

Enable audio alert for speed cams regardless of the speed.
Waze currently only triggers audio alerts about speed cams when the driver is above the speed limit of the specific cam.
Since the speed detection on Waze is very flawed (at least here in Brazil/Rio de Janeiro), and not all cams have their speed limit properly set, it would be MUCH better if Waze triggered it's audible alert for speed cams independently of the fact that the driver may be above or below the limit of the cam.
Thank you.
And keep up the good work!2,162 votes
