Gas report moderation
Shop owners and trolls often report inaccurate gas prices. It seems innocent until you find a 20 minute old report that weirdly underreports the price of gas by 20 cents, and find them at a number of nearby stations while you try to figure out if you've spent more gas driving to different ststions than you could save by finding at least one correct one.
There should be a mechanism to either moderate this, or simply add a mechanism of photo verification at the pump with a confirm/deny for the next person who gets there.2 votes -
SPLIT: notify drivers of heavy traffic ahead of time and offer alternative routes
Another suggestion would be when the app sees there is heavy traffic well before and notifies the driver of different routes available due to the accident or whatever may be holding up traffic.
Thank you!!

Report single lane stopped traffic on motorway
Sometimes there is a build-up of traffic in lane 1 of the motorway when approaching a junction, due to issues off of the motorway - causing cars to slam on their brakes and sometimes even causing accidents - while lanes 2 and 3 remain free-flowing.
Please allow a way of reporting single lane stopped traffic, or "exit-lane spillover" traffic (not sure how it should be worded).

Add Moderate Traffic option in CarPlay Report
Within Apple Carplay, reporting traffic you only get two options… “Heavy” or “Standstill”. There is no option for “Moderate” or a general “Traffic” option. Please add!

police alert when they take pictures from a bridge
In my country we have police officers standing on bridges and take photos of ppl on their phones while driving.
An option to report and alert other drivers will make the driver stop being on their phone faster.2 votes -
Camera Reports
Please make a choice and add for more options of report camera such as phone/seatbelt cameras. I only have & see police and mobile camera. Also when automatically shown camera ahead, put option for "still there - not there or removed" since some of them removed or moved another location. And how i confirm my reports still in map or just wated from nothing and not shown in map if i cross again? Some of my report i didn't see it when i was driving again in same road.. why and how it's work?

Zeitlimit für Meldungen erhöhen, falsche Meldungen löschen können / Increase the time limit for reports and delete false reports
Zeitlimit für Meldungen auf 60 Sekunden erhöhen oder keine automatischen Übernahmen. Icons, aus dem gelben Dreieck, um Verkehrsvorgänge zu melden, die angeklickt werden, werden viel zu schnell übernommen. Zudem Funktion einrichten, um fehlerhaft übernommene Icons wieder löschen zu können.
Increase the time limit for notifications to 60 seconds or disable automatic transfers. Clicked icons from the yellow triangle used to report traffic incidents are transferred far too quickly. Also, set up a function to delete incorrectly transferred icons.

Bring back "wrong speed limit" report
I'm using Apple CarPlay if that changes anything.
Some years ago, I could report "wrong speed limit". Now there is no report button like this and it causes the entire reporting worflow much longer: I report a general issue, then someone finds it, asks me what the issue is about (and I don't always remember if it was about the limit), and then I reply and they fix it. It could be just 1 click and then someone fixes it - much faster!

Allow user to report a road closure
The slip road we needed to go on had been closed but Waze didn’t know about it. Then no matter what you keep getting redirected. It would be good to click on the part of the route that is closed in order to report, as you have to drive past to a safe spot to try find a better route.

Reporting offensive comment or possible scam in map chat
I have been noticing possible scammer on the map chat for months now. The strategy has always been the same- reports heavy traffic and posted comments asking people for money (if the traffic is 20km long, you’ll see multiple traffic reports and comments from the same account all the way!). There has been instances where I encountered people cussing and giving offensive remarks on the map chat as well.
It is frustrating seeing them on the map. I hope the team can do something about this.

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

Common hotspots for speed camera vans/ speed traps
To have common hotspots for speed vans or speed traps added to the map. This would allow users to be aware of common spots for speed camera vans. Yes shouls be doing the speed limit but at the same time we all go over from time to time especially areas we may not no or the change speed limits.

Potential Mobile Speed Trap Location Alert
There are many locations where Police Camera vans stay. These are often the same location, and often around bends so its too late once they see you. You should add to the map, just like with speed cameras, potential mobile speed trap. This would allow everyone to be alert at all times, then if the vans are there, Wazers can further report Police just as usual. This would prevent speeding earlier on rather than when someone finally reports the presence of police. For example, this could be done by adding a new icon e.g. a van symbol, with an audio…

Different colour for bad weather reports
I have always noticed that bad weather reports have the same colour as general hazard reports. Wouldn't it be better to put the bad weather reports on a light blue that perhaps indicates something to do with the weather or on a bright red that indicates a more serious danger than the 'classic' yellow generic hazards?

Use the same terminology
Clicking on "hazard" report uses "vehicle on shoulder". But the "still there" has "car on shoulder." Make it all "vehicles" since not only cars are on the shoulder but many other vehicles as well.
