Never change my NON-TOLL route to a TOLL ROUTE without my explicit permission
We are on an extended road trip. We EXPLICITLY told Waze to avoid TOLLS. As you are driving along, Waze will pop up and suggest going the toll route because it will be faster, albeit, more expensive. If you don't happen to see the pop up and don't select "No Thanks", Waze WILL SWITCH IT AUTOMATICALLY to the TOLL ROUTE. If there's another setting to stop that, I haven't discovered it yet. You SHOULD NEVER EVER change my route just because it's faster without my explicit permission to do so.

Using previous traffic accidents to highlight dangerous corners, junctions and roads to warn drivers.
Maybe highlighting areas in red where there’s high accident rates or even putting a bouquet of flowers or something as a symbol for a previous road death. Making drivers more wary when entering a dangerous corner, junctions etc.

Camera Ratings
Add an option to rate the availability of the fixed speed cameras. Sometimes the fixed speed cameras are removed but since there is no one to update them then it always show up in the map. My idea is to add a button THERE for those cameras that are already there and NOT THERE button. When the NOT THERE ratings exceeds THERE ratings so the editors know that they have to remove them. This can also be shown while driving and let the drivers know the truthfulness of the cameras.

Heads up display issues
I regularly use Android Auto which integrates nicely with my BMW's heads up display. When using Waze, there are two issues I notice immediately. The first are the suggested lanes is not displayed, yet Google Maps will show the lanes. Also, when a specific font is used, the characters don't show correctly. Instead I get question marks. I have images to share, but don't know how through this site.

display full address you’re arriving at
When you arrive at your destination, and the directions UI displays “you have arrived at…”, it should show the full street address with number, rather than just street name. Sometimes you forget after a long drive, especially if you’ve never been there before.

Robersonville, NC pronunciation
The app pronounces the first syllable of Robersonville, NC, USA as "robe," like a garment a person wears around the house. It's actually pronounced "rob," as in what a thief does. As in "Robbersonville."

Rank routes by least number of minutes in traffic
For a long drive, calculate "% of time spent in traffic" and "# of minutes spent in traffic" and include that as a criteria.
We just stared at 3 different routes for a 4+ hour drive that had varying lengths and amount of time in stop & go traffic. We would have liked to have selected easily "the one that makes the car move the most and has the least stop & go, so we don't get car sick and our children don't wake up."

Speed trap
When speed trap notification pops up. Tachometer becomes hidden behind the directions element. That makes it impossible to read current speed and also max speed limit. Maybe the possible cause is scaled system UI. I think the speed trap notification could popup small in the corner.

Bei Reisen ist es zu wenig von A nach B einzugeben. Eine Zwischenziel -Eingabe fehlt mir sehr bei Waze.
Beispiel: von Stuttgart (D) nach Calais(F) zur Fähre nach England. Waze routet über Frankreich. Da die Route über Brüssel (B) schöner ist und nur wenige Kilometer länger ist, bessere Raststätten häufiger bietet (mit Kindern und "alten Männern" an Bord sind saubere Toiletten häufig nötig), muss man die Route umplanen können. Es wäre also ideal, nicht nur in meinem Beispiel, auch mehrere Zwischenorte definieren zu können, um eine ideale Routeninformation am Navi zu haben. Leider geht das bei Waze nicht.
Auch für Rundreisen oder Erlebnistouren wäre eine solche Funktion ideal.
In meinem Beispiel bleibt der Startpunkt A(Stuttgart) erhalten, so wird aus…4 votes -
Screen space landscape
The landscape view of the map has too many things on screen. The black navigation pane covers the speed limit and the speed camera alert also covers most of the screen. I am using larger font sizing as my eyes aren't great and the scaling makes this situation even worse.
Can the screen space be arranged so items don't cover each other in landscape.
Maybe a new set of icons/thin banner on the "side" instead of going along the whole "bottom" of the screen when in landscape.
Also Samsung phone has polarised screen to help viewing in sunlight but with…

Hazard Report End Date
Give users the option to set a hazard report time out or end date. It should default to something sensible for the type of hazard, but can be modified if desired.
For example, there are currently roadworks ongoing for a 2 month period on my daily commute while they are joining up roads and installing a roundabout. The road surface is gravel as they are replacing the road base.
Every day I report it, and almost every day it times out and disappears by the time I drive home again.
Similarly, potholes do not disappear until they are fixed -…

Plan a drive screen should have a 'switch direction' option
Sometimes the time I want to leave to a place in the morning will depend on the estimated traffic for when I return... It will be much easier to plan if you don't have to start a new drive plan for the opposite direction.
