Railroad Crossing Ticketing
Hello, in Illinois we have an railroad crossing that tickets you when the lights come on and the fine is a hefty $250. In order to not let others fall into this trap could a speed camera icon or something be added to that crossing? The tracks run by the intersection of Irving Park Rd and Wood Dale Ave

Indiquer les hauteurs de parking
Bonjour, est il envisageable de pouvoir bénéficier des hauteurs de parkings dans les centre ville pour éviter de se trouver bloquer et bloquer la circulation à l'entrée d'un parking dans lequel on s'est engagé et dont la hauteur n'est finalement pas adaptée au VÉHICULE ?

Know Police Enforcement Zones
Waze is a great tool for being notified of any police that are in the area. Police tend to use the same places to park and hide while waiting for you to come along.
Wazes stores the data on where the police are hiding or parked waiting to measure your speed.
My idea is for ways to have a new alerts feature called "known Police enforcement zones"
This will assist in helping with unwanted encounters with law enforcement when police aren't already tagged on the app.Please add "known Police Enforcement Zones"
I know everybody will love this added…3 votes -
Add features
I have a idea to add features find free penalty park places for diffrent vehicles. Like parking places for motorcycles, cars, etc.
For example, if someone wants to go shop and find a nearby free and safe parking space without penalty.
You can add this feature for premium users.1 vote -
Aires de repos
Alors tout comme nous mettons de plus en plus en avant les parkings lors de long trajet sur l'autoroute il est conseillé de prendre régulièrement des pauses se dégourdir les jambes s'aéré changer de conducteur quand cela est possible ... puis bon certaines envie pressante (pas besoin d'un dessin) une option afin d'alerter de l'air de repos la plus proches ou la possibilités de les repéré facilement sans avoir a les chercher via les panneau etc qui nous ajouterais l'air la plus proche dans le parcoure.

Adding voice assistant
There should be an option to activate the voice control automaticaly, just like you wake ip "alexa" or "siri", just saying "Hi waze" should be enough in order to do anything within the app.
Navigating to a new location, adding a stop, finding parking spots/gas stations nearby, report traffic or anything else18 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Update map
Hello,
I’m reporting this here as I do not use Waze (I don’t drive) and there is no other option available. I’ve experience so many issues with Uber and Lyft drivers using Waze for pick up at Century Plaza Towers in Los Angeles (2029 Century Park east, la, ca, 90067). The cross street (Century Park east and constellation) is blocked due to construction and has been for over a year now. Can you please update your maps to reflect this so drivers don’t continue to take this street and waste time.
Thanks!

Add arrive button
Sometimes when arriving at very large places, Waze thinks that you arrive only when you are in the front door of the place. Think for example in a mall, the parking lot will be huge, but Waze already traced the route until the front door.
An "arrive" button will help Waze to understand that you are already at your destination and there is no need to recalculate the route while you are looking for a parking spot10 votes -
Sloping / inclined streets
In Latam and some other cities I have known, there are streets with inclines of more than 15° and some vehicles cannot drive up these roads due to several factors.
1) low power vehicles
2) Motorcycles
3) climatic factors that prevent the vehicle to go up this road.
4) vehicles parked on the sides that prevent other vehicles from passing.It would be interesting to make waze as well as avoid freeway roads we can add the inclination and avoid it.

Parked Time/Timer
Maybe add a time and timer for when you parked and how long you’ve been parked?
Some parking areas require you to move your car at certain times — for example, some places only allow parking for 2 hours, 2.5 hours, or even less or more. It would be useful to have that kind of timer.
Normally, when I’ve parked, I just close the Waze app and don’t click on “Parked.”
It would be useful to have this feature in the Waze app, and for it to show on the phone’s lock screen?

Alert drivers that a street they are about to take is extremely steep and their car might not make it up.
Alert drivers that a street they are suggesting is extremely steep and that a car might not make it up that steep street. I have recently daily watched cars on a local street in Echo Park using Waze to get around traffic only to be directed up one of the steepest streets in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, unless they have a new car with great tires and transmission many are getting stuck on street on the way up. It is actually funny when I have talked to the people they all say that Waze directed them up this street. I bet…

Shipping Locations: Optional Photo
By submitting via a local application, make mandatory the address location of the fill and make sending the photo an optional, because sometimes we have the time and calm to report when we got inside the place, or parked in a location that does not have the ability to send the photo of the facade, or is night, it's raining etc ...
This prevents photos "nothing", interior or wrong.
Thus, passing the place, you could have an option to skip the photo, in the address field, making it mandatory.17 votes -
Make non-residential place addresses indexed and routable
Editors spend much time adding RPPs to public places because the addresses in the place points are not indexed/routable and the HNs won't connect to the parking lot roads. Plus if routing uses the Google Maps address we spend more time handling URs because the Wazer got routed to the back of the location rather than the front door. This is an absurd waste of time, and adds untold complexity and clutter to the map. Please expand the place addresses to allow for suite numbers or other identifiable info where businesses share the same basic as GM already does,…

Stop navigation once you're "close enough" to the destination
Waze should have an option where it stops trying to re-route once you're close to the destination, especially when it is not possible to actually drive to the exact entry point for whatever reason.
Context:
I've got someone who has brought up routing issues to their destination a few times, and at least two or three local editors have made various changes. They now again have been saying that once they arrive, Waze wants them to exit the parking lot again, and make a huge detour just to return again to where they are already located.
I am convinced…

Parking route
It would be great if, once you arrive near your destination, Waze could guide you through nearby areas with available parking. The app should take you on circular routes that always bring you back to your arrival point, dynamically adjusting the path if necessary.
Imagine a city with a grid layout of intersections:
You arrive at point A and select an option from a pop-up indicating that you need to find parking. Waze directs you to take a loop around the block to the upper left, bringing you back to point A. If no parking is found,…

2 Ideas!
Hi, ive got two ideas: 1. When starting a new ride from a parking car, Waze does not know which direction the vehicle is facing. And because of Murphy's rules, most of the time it will plan the opposite route :) My suggestion is: before starting navigation I will have the option to calibarate the direction my vehicle facing (button that using the internal compass) . and now that Waze can understand that im facing east for example it can plan the right route. 2. adding an option so Waze know im driving a motorcycle so it can plane…
33 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already has Motorcycle Mode included in the app. To change your vehicle type, tap Settings > Car Details > Vehicle type.
As for the idea with adjusting car facing direction, it is under consideration.

Parking service function
Would it be possible to add a parking service function that tell the driver who offer parking spaces, prices for use them and what app they are using for it.

Simplify Wazer and Editor workflow for residential places
The current method for a wazer to add their home to the map is confusing and creates more work for waze map editors. The workflow for a wazer is similar to this:
Wazer selects the yellow triangle (if it's displayed on their map)
Next selects "Place"
(now it is about to get really confusing)
Wazer must take a picture
The next screen says "Select Place" with a text field that says "Enter Place name".
For a residence, the wazer should not enter a place name. Just below the text field there is apparently a "button" that if tapped will add…31 votes -

Display time of initial recording
How about you add in the settings Enable/Disable "Spotted Time". That way someone could see and evaluate how long these new camera vans park there for. It would display the time the first wazer reported it. And should be disabled by Default.
