Use my device's GPS accuracy to determine route stickyness
I often find myself "stuck" to parallel roads because Waze routed me that way and I "must" be following the route--even though my GPS places me over 20m (65ft) away!
When I go to Taco Bell on my way to work, it's so I can go through the drive thru, NOT so I can roll past the front door as Waze would have me do. But the 15m (50ft) out of the parking lot is "close enough" to assume that I'm following the route.
This also happens when I'm trying to train Waze to take a longer route out of my parking lot to a shorter wait at a light. Waze misses that I didn't turn out of the parking lot and am on a parallel road 65m (80ft) away, and just assumes I'm on the road it wants me to take.Update the "route stickiness" algorithm to stay locked to the nearest segment within, say, 1.25 * the current accuracy. The GPS in my phone is usually accurate to within 3m (10ft). At time's, I've had as bad as 10. Even this should be good enough to determine when I've left a parking lot.
Part of this may have to do with things like large intersections where the junction node in the middle could be 10-15m away from a vehicle taking a right turn, but surely that can be tweaked for the street type, i.e. tighter tolerance for streets and parking lot roads, wider tolerance for primary streets and highways.
Incidentally, I think freeway interactions are restrictive enough that you can probably keep them tight too. I know it often takes a while for Waze to realize I've taken an unexpected exit. I mean, I can be on one of two different segments and I just slowed down drastically, where the heck do you think I am!?Perhaps transitions to/from parking lot roads or ramps could incorporate some kind of delta-v tracking.

Please do not put pick-up points at no-parking area.
More than once, the app directed me to stop at a no parking area for pick up. This is crazy and confusing.

Recently, you just added the capability to record your own voice! I LOVE IT!!! I do "voices" and have often wondered how I would ...
Ok, I just wanted to say "Thank you!"
I recorded a Waze set of voices under "Rich Allcorn", and shared it on Facebook! We'll see how popular it gets. If it does, then I'm going to do one in one of my voices next ... these are fun! "Thank you!"-rich-

הוספת זמן חניה משוער לכל נסיעה
היות ורוב המשתמשים לא מכבים את האפליקציה כשהם מגיעים ליעד ומחפשים חניה ניתן לדעת בממוצע מה זמן חיפוש החניה עפ"י רדיוס/איזור מסויים.
את הפיצ'ר יהיה אפשר להדליק ולכבות מההגדרות וכמובן צריך להוריד מהסטטיסטיקה מכשירים שכיבו את האפליקציה כשהגיעו ליעד או שחנו ישר (מה שאומר שאולי יש להם חניה פרטית).
זה יכול לעזור בתזמון נסיעות בקלות..כשזה ימומש אפשר גם לפי זה לדווח על חניות פנויות אבל זה כבר משהו אחר :)

More accurate gps
The only reason I do not use waze more often is that the nevigation is delayed. Unlike google maps I cannot see exactly where I am on waze there is a 15sec delay. This confuses me and makes it harder to navigate and drive at the same time. By the time I pass the turn the gps shows me at the turn.

Traffic Jam
I've been sitting in a traffic jam for hours. Originally Waze said I would get through the traffic in 9 mins. It now says 7 mins but there is literally no end in site. It will be hours. My husband went through the same issue in this area this morning. Waze still isn't showing that there is a huge traffic jam here and accurately calculating the time! I could have driven there and back 3 times. I should have never been sent this way.
