Edit Toll Prices in the WME
The procedure to edit toll prices is complex and only certain users per community can edit those prices.
Toll prices should be editable directly in the WME to avoid a complex process.

Allow un-checking Segments layer to be persistent
When using Street Vector Layer I turn off the Segments layer but each time a hard refresh is required (which is far too often) the Segments layer is re-activated by default. Please allow the setting for the Segments layer to be persistent.

Add dashcam video
It would be useful for Machine Learning training data if we could upload the dashcam video with a time synchronized with waze trips

Distance to overtaking section (Dual lane) on "A" Roads
Marked on Maps and audio description saying Distance to Overtaking Zone. This would avoid numerous accidents knowing that if you wait a short period of time you can overtake safely rather than risking overtaking in the face of oncoming traffic.

Parking Lot Roads - Differentiate Aisles & Roads
It would be nice to have a way of setting PLRs to be able to use speed data (versus a set speed) while having the same penalty settings (i.e., the road has no penalty between the two PLR settings). This would be useful in large parking lots area such as sporting venues and malls, where set speed is fine for aisles and minor roads but speed data would be useful for finding the fastest entrance/exit on it's higher volume roads. With the set PLR speed, you are almost always getting the shortest route of PLRs, even if that lot exit…

Conditional lane guidance
There are many cases in highways where there is an on-ramp shortly followed by an off-ramp. In those cases, the right lane/s serve for those who get on the HW from the on-ramp, as well as those who get off the HW on the off-ramp.
A wazer that gets on the HW from the on-ramp and has to continue on the HW should get lane guidance to go onto the left lanes when approachng the next junction of the off-ramp, otherwise, he might continue on the right lanes and get off the HW.
A wazer that comes on the HW…41 votes -
Display state instead of country when zoomed out
If a country uses states then when between zoom levels 5/6 to 10 it should say the state name rather than country name. Once you are zoomed out past level 5 or 6 then it should start saying the country name.
E.g. More useful to know I am looking at Queensland instead of Australia at this zoom level

Update UR Categories the same as the App
Would like to match app problem descriptions with those presented in WME URs.
For example: UR's that come in for 'Wrong Driving Directions' (what the App says)
Show in WME as 'Improper / Poor navigation instruction'Having that changed to 'Wrong Driving Directions' will help with editors looking at responses and what to select for a default/1st response to a user.

Allow for the addition of signage symbols for turn instructions.
I'm not asking for the ability to add all road signage (e.g. regulatory signage) as this would be overkill, but many countries include symbolism on big green signs to display additional services on a turn instruction without having to use lengthy text to do so.
While some symbolism exists in unicode/emoji form, these are not uniform across platforms and having country specific visual aids to add to signs would be a valuable way of informing drivers of additional services on their turn instructions.
The types of signs I would like to see added include:
* Accomodation
* Camping
* Caravan…22 votes -

Insights MTE impact
I would love to be able to see the influence of an MTE. For example, the number of Wazers that received the push notification and the number of Wazers that received a different route.

Restore UR interface to prior version
WME v 2.1.344.1-4e85e205 broke the UR comments interface in numerous ways. Restore it to 2.1.285.3-612222ad

Improve WME editing capability on mobile phones
I can currently add or delete real-time closures in WME in Chrome on my mobile (Galaxy S20). I can't change turn permissions, for instance, as touching the turn arrow to be changed deselects the segment it's part of. Can we get more functionality of WME in Chrome on a mobile phone?

Save changes as a draft
The "save as draft" button keeps the changes made but not yet saved, so that they can be resumed at a later time or continued on another device.

Practice mode in WME while logged in
As far as I know, after logging into the WME, the user cannot enter practice mode anymore.
I suggest that besides "Default mode" and "Event mode", there will be "Practice mode" that will enable anyone to go into the practice mode directly even when already logged in. This might be useful for anyone who wants to try to edit in order to test something or to illustrate some edit option (and take a snapshot of it), and also it is suggested to enable entrance into the tutorial videos from there.59 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.

place destination counter for the last 30 days
Selecting a Waze place could show the amount of route requests in the last 30 days that had the exact Waze place as a destination.
This would be quite informative and could give us editors an insight on how demanded an entry is.

Closure layer behaviour on selected segments
When the closure layer is off and you have a segment with closure selected, the active closure is not showing when you switch on the closure layer. You need to unselect and reselect the segment to be able to see it. It would be nice if that can be resolved.

Prevent overlapping restrictions
Currently you get set overlapping restrictions on segments and turns (e.g. setting all vehicles prohibited Monday-Friday and on Tuesdays) Instead you should receive an error when applying or savings the restriction, similar to closures.
