Letting the driver know which lane (right or left) is used to make U-turn
when need to make a U-turn, sometimes it could be on the left side of the road or even on the right.
it would be less chaotic and sudden change of lanes if the driver knows how/where the U-turn will take place, especially if there were were many lanes, then need to be prepared early to be on the U-turn lane.
it could be make the U-turn on the right lane, where there is a specific lane for U-turn.
or even it could be taking the traffic light on or below the flyover.1 vote -

Enhancing Navigation by Selectively Considering Planned Road Closures
One possible solution could be to include a checkbox that allows editors to choose which planned closures are considered so important that they should be taken into account in the navigation before they become effective. This way, editors can select only the closures that are critical for navigation, while excluding those that are not as important.
For example, in Switzerland these days, the Gotthard Tunnel is closed at night for cleaning. This closure can cause significant disruptions to travel, as the Gotthard Tunnel is an essential link between German-speaking Switzerland and the Italian-speaking Ticino region. Without the tunnel,…

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.

Highlight 2 lane roads that have infrequent passing zones
There are several spots between Victorville, CA, and SR-145 that are only two lanes, one each way. My suggestion is to highlight/identify the sections or roads that are no-pass zones. Roads like this, where there me several miles between passing lanes? Change the color to flashing read, or something. ;-)
Contact me if you have questions.
Almost every time I travel this way I have someone tailgating, wanting to pass me (and I'm already going over the posted limit), and sometimes they pass or try to pass in no-pass zones and I've seen several near misses.I know…

Reporting counterflow option
Currently there is a report for road works, and there are options for closure of right, left or center lane . But there are no options for a counterflow situation on the motorway, eg where northbound traffic is led onto the southbound road half and users face oncoming traffic

Add feature that allows user to share that they are riding in the Diamond Lane so they can get accurate ETA for their drive.
Allow drivers to share that they're driving in the Diamond Lane, so they can get and give accurate ETA info for their drive time in the Diamond Lane.

When WAZE reports debris in the road it should say left, right, or center. I had a bumper in the center lane of the interstate and missed it
Want WAZE to say where debris is located in the road. Right lane center or left. Then we would know to change lanes. Almost hit a bumper twice in the center lane at dusk would have been a major accident but thanks to WAZE I got past it. But a heads up for the lane would help. I was doing 75 on the interstate at the time

Allow closure reporting even after the trip has been rerouted
A couple of times a road has been closed near my destination, and when I skip it and wait for Waze to rerout, it reroutes me back around to the same road.
If I were able to report the closure after I've already passed it and it's safe to do so, that wouldn't happen. This seems like a critical oversight by Waze and I've seen this reported in the past only to see Waze reply with "this is not something we can do at this time".
Seems foolish in my very humble opinion.1 vote -

Ignore Traffic Option for Real Time Road Closures
For Real Time Road Closures, please add the option to "Ignore segment traffic". Currently if there is any traffic detected on a Closed segment, the Closure will be put into Suspend mode. This can be problematic since some Waze users choose to ignore a closure, because they can't "see" any backed up traffic due to the closure, and will cause the closure to be paused until enough traffic has been stopped behind the closure and the segment detects no more movement. By then the closure should have been in place warning Waze users well ahead of time…

Bus lane - options to enable them and present them on the map
I have EV and I have enabled EV mode. In my country, EV can drive on bus lane.
I was expecting that Waze would take that into consideration and it is : yesterday, when I set up the destination, Waze told/asked me that "The route might contains directions on bus lane". I had the checkbox to hide the prompt in the future (which I marked) and button like ok/dismiss (I don't remember). This is great.However I would like to unmark the button now and there is no option in UI (iOS) for it. Also while driving or…

Names assigned recently for some existing public lanes by East York council in Toronto
I'm a collge journalist student. On September 16, 2019 the council approved to add names of people and other historical aspects of Toronto to some existing public lanes for people to easily navigate to and had 2 street closures..
I'll add the info here for the update but in return I would appreciate a quote for my article which really will help me graduate since I'm in my final year.
What is the process of getting you navigation system updated and how long will it take?
This is from the offical government website and each change has its…

App closure after Apple CarPlay shutdown
Please fix the app so it automatically closes after the car shuts off with Apple CarPlay. It used to do this until about 6-12 months ago. It’s annoying that Waze stays running when you get out of your car, draining your phone battery.

Lanes Selection Display
The lane indicator display is a great addition but the colour used to highlight the correct lane isn’t great white against light gray isn’t very eye catching. How about the correct lanes are highlighted in the blue that is used for the main display. This will be more eye catching against the grayed out lanes

Construction Closure: Intersections
I was thinking about how we can close roads on WME. It would be nice to be able to close multiple roads or just an intersection by drawing something like a junction box and then being able to set parameters. Sometimes Just an intersection will be closed for construction but you can still drive up to the construction to get to your destination. If it could just close within the box-

Please add bus lanes operational hours for London sometimes as anytime or with poor design by local authorities to trap drivers
Dear Sirs,
Please add bus lanes operational hours for London, sometimes they are set as any time or with poor design by local authorities to trap drivers and be served with contravention.No pre-warning, no standard design with decent ergonomically signs to serve the day driving and night driving.Would be a great assistance to get warned before bus lane and flagged all along of the bus lane so drivers can drive adequately or pull out of bus lane if missed to change the lane.
Best wishes,
