message car to car
It would be useful to add the possibility to send a message to another car using the car license plate number
This is useful when a car has a taillight out of order or when you forget the back foglamps on.
In any case in all situations in which you want to warn a car of a potential danger.
Naturally, the message is only received even if the target car has the active waze application.

Preimptive Traffic Notification - Please read it is not just what it seems by headline.
Preemptive traffic notifications! Sounds Alarm, chirp, chime, text w.e. the user selects when normal route would be jammed BEFORE leaving their home/spot. You have the info and capability to recognize patterns in people’s lives. If they leave at 7:30 to get on a bus, subway, truckers cranking up, no matter who it is, Waze could see that their normal route is delayed 2 hours and let them know BEFORE they have left. Think of the possibilists. People with flexible schedules, Truckers, Subway goers… Repeating but flexible route drivers (delivery etc.)… lots of people benefit so much! Even me, because I do not prefer leaving then finding out traffic is bad. IT COULD ALSO let the person know if they have already left, which is important because some people literally get in their car and start Waze just to see if traffic is bad! Let them not have to spend those moments doing that (stress free :) ) . . . If you already do...sorry. Ignore this :( I just thought of it sitting here and typed it in.

Flash screen or show some form of Visual alert (Maybe flash the screen white and black 3 times?), when you have audio alerts muted
Flash screen or show some form of Visual alert (Maybe flash the screen white and black 3 times?) that would catch the drivers eye, when you have audio alerts muted? I mute mine as it causes my music to go quiet when an alert happens. (Apple CarePlay). A distinctive total screen flash might catch my peripheral vision, "Police ahead".

Show speed limit ahead (e.g. 300 meters ahead) for economic driving
In order to allow economic driving one should be informed that a changing speed limit will come up long enough to be able to save fuel and save the environment. When there is a hint that you have to lower speed like 300 meters in advance you can just stop pushing gas, so car will just sail.

State by state Laws
When crossing state lines, the app would alert you to state laws regarding cell phone/texting, wipers/headlights, toll transponder reciprocity, etc. We discovered the hard way (toll + fine) that Florida does not accept payment from any other states transponder.

Make turnings and exits more clear (Using arrows or different color)
I have missed an exit or taken the wrong exit multiple times with this app. I do not have this problem with google maps. It would be helpful if turnings could be made more prominent, using different colors or an arrow shown on the actual map.

Plan a drive carpool edition
My suggestion is to be able to plan a drive for multiple stops or carpool for the future. Right now, you can plan a drive in the future for one stop, but it would be great to do it for 2 stops.

Announce verbally route and delay changes
At the moment if the route changes then Waze makes a chirp sound. I would like it to actually say "Route Change" or perhaps "Route recalculated due to change in traffic conditions" and then "Arrival time is now 7.34 pm". Or "Traffic delay has increased/decreased by 5 minutes". These announcements should be capable of being enabled/disabled in settings to allow for different user preferences. Personally I don't like reading messages on the phone screen while I'm driving - I would rather messages be read out verbally so I don't have to look at the screen as much - safer!

Add an Undo / Revert Button to "View History"
Sometimes edits are made not following the guidelines or not reflecting the actual road conditions (the editor thinks what is seen in the satellite imagery / Street View is current).
Since the history of the objects is already tracked, a revert button should be simple enough to implement and can save valuable edit time.

Differentiate between toll roads and toll bridges
I drive solo in Seattle. I have three options into Seattle from the North: - I -405 (with a toll bridge - 525- across the lake) or 1-405 (with a non toll bridge - via 1-90) and then I-5 with no tolls at all.
Can we have an option for WAZ to differentiate between toll roads and toll bridges - this is because I can still drive the "regular" road on the 1-405 and then take the toll bridge (525) into Seattle, but I don't want WAZ to figure the time for the HOV/T lane...aaaaagh, does that make any sense? Thank you!!

Police
Police alerts are helpful in many ways, the one thing that would help a bit more is if along with the alert there should be an indication of how much time has passed since the alert was posted. This feature is already available but only if you tap on an upcoming police alert icon in which you will see for example 10min ago on the top right corner, but it does not show in the alert that pops up as you drive....... Unless it is a construction site police are rarely in one spot for very long...... I feel that this would be an added benefit to an already helpful feature
Also just to point out, when I tap on an alert icon to check how long ago it was posted, if it's after 1200AM it always says one day ago.... Not a very accurate description.......... Thanx For allowing input......... Much appreciatedPolice alerts are helpful in many ways, the one thing that would help a bit more is if along with the alert there should be an indication of how much time has passed since the alert was posted.

highway wrong direction car alert
it could be useful to add an alert to inform other wazers that a car is driving in wrong direction (very useful for the Highways). The alert will blink to any wazer smartphone display that is driving that way before the alert point.
This feature could permit alerted drivers to mantain the right lane till the end of the emergency.11 votes -
Waze to initiate pre-determined reply to texts when driving
I want waze to initiate a pre-determined text reply automatically when I am driving, note automatically, so it switches on and off according to when I am driving using Waze. I would set my reply to say: "I'm driving at the moment so please call me as I can't read your texts but can speak to you using bluetooth. This text has been sent to you by Waze navigation app."
