  3. Option for not enabling Closed updates layer when opening UR

    The latest version of WME will now enable the Closed updates layer when opening a UR. Many editors don't want or need this, so I am suggesting a toggle (setting) to prevent this from occurring.

  4. Truck mode, Modo para camiones

    Español: Agreguen modo para camiones, ya que al no señalar donde hay tuneles o su altura pueden ocurrir accidentes y no quiero que eso suceda.

    English: Add mode for trucks, since by not indicating where there are tunnels or their height accidents can occur and I do not want that to happen.

    Portugués: Modo add para caminhões, pois ao não indicar onde existem túneis ou sua altura podem ocorrer acidentes e eu não quero que isso aconteça.

  5. Allow assigning house numbers from the map while there.

    I go a lot of places and the house numbers in some areas are either nonexistent or just plain wrong. It would be nice to edit the map while on the street with the house numbers.

  7. Add Slope / Tilt Penalty

    Add a route penalty option for streets with pronounced slopes that can become dangerous (whether due to vehicle capacity or atmospheric conditions). Such an option should have various levels of penalties depending on the tilt angle.

  8. Vehicle stopped on right shoulder/left shoulder

    Waze currently tells you if there is a vehicle stopped on the shoulder, but does not have the option to select right shoulder or left shoulder. I've come across vehicles stopped on a narrow left shoulder twice in the last month after expecting to find them on the more common right shoulder. It would add greatly to safety if you knew on which side of the road a vehicle was stopped.

  10. Add On Road Hazard “slow vehicle”

    We passed two vehicles going less than 50 in a 70 zone with their flashers blinking in the right lane. Allow to add “slow vehicle” hazard in road to alert truckers and others traveling the speed limit.

  11. Return to Home in WME Nav Tabs

    This is a small feature to add to the Nav Tabs in the top left of WME, but as I've had my region enlarged as an AM, I find myself further and further away from my main city doing edits and I have to zoom out and drag quite a lot to get back to my city. I would LOVE a simple "Home" icon in the Nav Tabs to zoom me back to a specific spot on the map. Currently my work around is to load my drives and click on a recent drive which brings me close at least.

  12. conditional tolls

    There are some toll segments that go pretty paralell to the public roads, so time savings are more related to traffic (<5 min when comparing vs toll roads).
    Waze always will choose the toll segment but for a regular wazer time savings will not be enough to use toll vs public road.
    A conditional that let waze to avoid tolls when savings are less than X minutes will help wazers pockets.

  13. Add the ford option

    Waze should add another option for ford, along with the existing ones: "Unpaved", "Tunnel", etc.

    In the Waze Map Editor, the editor could choose this option for the entire length of the road that passes through a body of water.

  14. Gas station service level

    Enable editors to add gas station type (self-service, full-service, or either) when adding or modifying a gas station.

    On the client side, users should be able to select a preference for self-service or full-service in Settings > Gas stations. In most areas of the US, users don't know the service type until they reach the station.

  16. Allow for combined speed/red light cameras on map edits

  17. Center the elevation in the box

    When editing the elevation, currently the number in the elevation box is left justified. This puts it right next to the negative (-) sign making it look like it is a negative elevation.

    I recommend center justifying the number to make it more obvious what the actual number is.

  18. Allow addition of new traffic signal or stop sign where one did not previously exist.

    Allow editors to add a new traffic signal or stop sign. Allow alert similar to RR crossing sound. Set alert to expire 30-45 days after signal or stop sign is put into service.

  19. Issue tracker filter incorrectly showing drop down menu arrow direction

    In the issue tracker filter settings, currently the drop down arrows in the map issues filter settings for UR, PUR, MP and map suggestions are showing an up arrow when collapsed and a down arrow when expanded.

    However, in other best practice design scenarios, it should be the other way around. That is, when collapsed, show a down arrow so when you select it, the menu expands. Likewise when the menu is expanded, show an up arrow so when you select it, the menu collapses. This is done correctly in other dropdown menu options in WME

  20. Addition of danger on the road: Smoke

    Users should have the possibility to report a common danger in the road: Smoke. It can be from wildfires as described in another suggestion, however roads are not necessarily closed.
    We have dangers like "ice on road" or "snow", however those are never used in countries where winter never gets below 0°C (or is highly unlikely). On the contrary, every year there are fires causing road hazards with visibility dropping considerably.
