Expire events option
Give a general or category specific option to delete/expire events. e.g. most crashes/accidents are cleared in 30 minutes or less, yet the event lingers in Waze for 2 hours or more. So let the user chose how old an event will be displayed.

International Land Border Wait Time Predictions
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest a feature enhancement that could significantly improve the accuracy of ETA predictions for routes involving international land borders, such as those between the USA and Canada or the USA and Mexico.
Current Situation:
At present, it appears that Waze calculates ETA for routes involving international land borders based on general traffic data. This approach treats the border crossing as a regular segment of the journey, comparing travel times between points A and B without considering the unique delays associated with border crossings.Proposed Enhancement:
To provide more accurate ETAs and better routing…40 votes -

Big "stop Waze" button
Sometimes (often) you just want to stop and close Waze. But you have to go through menus, which is DANGEROUS while driving. There should be a big readily-visible X on the main navigation screen. Or alternatively, a big readily-visible MUTE button.

Speed camera, police and booze bus
Have speed camera, police and booze buses as all different icons so people can tell the difference between them. 1 icon for all police isn't specific enough.

CarPlay adding Police
When you tag a police location using Apple CarPlay you get one option, when you use the phone you get 'visible', 'hiiden' and 'other side'. Can the extra options be added to CarPlay?

Jeep Icon
We need a Jeep icon to choose as our map Icon. I have a Jeep truck but would be ok with a Jeep in general. The current truck is for 18 wheelers.

Traffic lights option button
Hello wazers. There are some traffic lights that are fast enough to pass through and some others that are extremely slow (2-3 cars per time). Waze commonly proposes directions through traffic lights (Even when there are other options).
I think that a “traffic light” option button that characterizes it as slow or fast, would be a good addition in order to accelerate our proposed roots40 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Add route style 'safe and simple' & 'eco-drive'
Selecting 'safe and simple' route will navigate you with safe wide roads without to many small cuves and turns. It might nog be the fastest of shortest but will avoid danger. Selecting 'eco-drive' caculates the most environmental friendly route and minimizes fuel consumption and pollution, just add you car and engine type in the settings menu and Waze will calculate your eco-ride.

Make alternative routes tappable directly on the map like GMaps.
Hoping for tappable alternative routes on the map, which also shows time difference from the suggested route. This was a feature I liked a lot in GMaps.

Off-road Trail Map Capability, the road less traveled.
There are a couple of very expensive off-road trail GPS devices for State and non OHV areas but I would love to see WAZE get into at least BLM/OHV and Fire road type of mapping.
Way points and even names of the trails. I live in California where there is many trails that the state regulates along with adopted programs from off road clubs. I'd buy an upgraded app for my WAZE if this was an option.

Feature Request - Add the ability to reach out to the community for help in a breakdown or accident
A topic came up in a FB motorcycle group about ways to signal to other users that you need help. Perhaps you ran out of gas, have a flat, or some other issue that requires tools. I carry tools with me on my bike to fix most issues that could arise. Although I look for helmets on pavement or some indication that a Wazer might be in need of help, it would be easier to have a Pulsing icon on my route map that easily identifies anyone that may be in need of assistance.
It's a nice way to ensure…

Speedometer size and location
On my 9 inch car android, speedometer is barely visible.
1. The size should be adjustable.

3. The position should be moveable.
