When a vehicle is broken down in the middle of the road, we aren't able to report it or say which lane is blocked.
When we come up to a vehicle that is disabled in the middle of a road, we can only report it as being on the shoulder. We need to be able to report it as blocking the road and report which lane is blocked/closed.

Select which lane a hazard or stopped vehicle is in on the motorway/freeway
Users should be able to select which lane a hazard or stopped vehicle is in on the motorway/freeway.
When driving on a multi-lane road, there's often reports of a hazard that cannot be seen. It would be more useful for "Which lane is the hazard in?" then select 1/2/3/4/5 so that drivers know specifically if it is likely to affect them.

Please add a filter based on vehicle size. An example would be a large RV based on height and length vs a small compact car.

Add 5 second automatic "Go now" and "Resume" for Motorcycle Vehicle Type
Hello,
I ride a motorcycle and the last thing I want to be doing is messing with my phone on it. There is a feature for a normal private vehicle that "resumes" or clicks certain buttons after about 5 seconds without the user doing anything. This feature does not appear to be available for the motorcycle vehicle type.
Please please please add this as it would make using Waze on a motorcycle much more safe.

Latest version of Waze is really bad. Instead of announcing “vehicle on shoulder” it now says “hazard” so while I’m looking for a rock…or
Vehicle stopped can be severe danger if the vehicle is on the road or on a narrow shoulder. A hazard is generally an avoidable pothole, tyre bit, rock or something in the middle of the road. Please return to announcing the hazard type such as vehicle stopped!

Clean Special Fuel Vehicle HOV Access
In Virginia they offer Clean Special Fuel Vehicle license plates for vehicles to access to only certain HOV lanes. For example, I cannot use I-95 EZ Pass for free unless I have 3+ people, but I can use the Dulles Toll Road and a few others that meet the criteria for the IRS for Clean Special Fuel Vehicles.
We need an option to put in the type of playe/access that will route away from tolls, but allow us to use the HOV lanes where it is free. I'm sure this is similar in other states and places.

Navigation for large slow and articulated vehicles
For motorhomes and towing a trailer, it’s important not to be sent down narrow lanes, or to be turned right at busy junctions.

Vehicle icon idea
I think for the Star Wars fans out there, you should make a YT-1300 Light Freighter as a car icon. You should be able to avoid the potential issue with Disney if you call it by it’s ship model and not the iconic name Millennium Falcon. Would be a great thing to offer for May the 4th be with you.

WAZE to avoid ULEZ zones - type in your vehicle reg before travel?
In April 2019 central London areas operate a 24/7 charge for vehicles which don't pass the ultra low emissions zone. This is the same boundaries as the congestion charge. This is in effect a toll. The only way I can see WAZE controlling this is that the driver must enter their reg that they are driving so that WAZE knows to avoid this toll. My car for example will fall short of the ULEZ, whereas my girlfriends will not so it is dependent on what you drive. Will WAZE build this into their app as a way of avoiding…
38 votesGreat news! The feature to avoid ULEZ is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Emergency vehicle live intervention alert to clear traffic
Hi Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature that could significantly improve emergency response times and road safety.
When police cars, ambulances, fire trucks, or other emergency vehicles are actively responding to an intervention, they could activate a special “Emergency Mode” within Waze (restricted to verified official vehicles only).
Drivers using Waze nearby would then receive a real-time alert such as: “Emergency vehicle approaching – Please clear the way.”The alert could:
- Notify drivers within a certain radius ahead of the emergency vehicle
- Display a visual warning on the map
- Provide a voice…1 vote -

Assistance information for vehicles on shoulder
It would be nice to know what a vehicle stopped on the shoulder might need if they need assistance. It's dangerous to try and back up down the shoulder after passing a stopped vehicle and noticing that they are struggling to change a tire or need some water or gas.
It would be great if a stopped vehicle could post "need help changing tire" or "out of gas". To get that information ahead of time would allow the ability to make a decision about whether to stop or not and to be able to do so safely.7 votes -

add the vehicles from a online database
I think it would be interesting to add the vehicles from a online database, for example: Choose PRIVATE VEHICLE -> Ford-> Focus-> MK2 and that the data of that vehicle appears as dimensions of length, width and height, and that the height of a tunnel and if my truck is very high and will not go through the tunnel, let me know and make me an alternative route.
