Ajouter un outil de signalement d'animaux perdus
Bonjour, je me permets de vous contacter pour vous soumettre une idée qui pourrait rendre votre application encore plus attractive et qui pourrait rendre service à un grand nombre de personnes...
Étant actuellement à la recherche du petit chien de ma sœur qui à fugué, j'utilise Waze pour vérifier les signalements d'animaux morts sur les routes (en espérant ne pas le retrouver de cette manière).
L'idée est qu'il serait vraiment très pratique de développer une option permettant de signaler des animaux errants... Encore plus pratique, un service permettant de signaler aux conducteurs qu'un animal est recherché dans une zone précise…

Post exact number of exit to take
When there are multiple exits on a single road, presently you show only what the sign states ( ie: exit 23 ABC ). If I am to take exit 23 B it should state that at the beginnig not when I'm on top of it.

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.

custom alerts
I would like to be able to place custom warnings in WME that come through to the app.
problem:
- certain tunnels see a lot of truckers or camper vans getting jammed because they are too large to enter.
- school area's getting dangerous when people who do not know the area are routed through due to a traffic jam somewhere else.Idea:
I imagine this like placing a speedcam in WME but then beeing able to fill in a message (with a set maximum of characters).
We could use those to put warnings in problematic areas, and these can…18 votes -
Split Place
After the succes of the Merge Places feature I would like to add a request to Split Places.
There are instances where wazers add a photo to a place that is not related to that place, but something nearby. At this moment we don't have a choice but to reject the photo. I would like an opportunity to use it to create a new place.

UR feed should include recently edited areas
After modifying an area, both senior and junior editors should pay close attention to new URs in that area to alert them of possible errors or oversights. To facilitate this, an editor's WME feed should list URs occurring in a localized area where that editor has recently made significant changes, e.g. "Near recent edits".
There should be some kind of threshold to this behavior, so that making a minor edit in a dense, heavily-Wazed area with many URs does not unleash an onslaught of unrelated URs in one's feed. The threshold may need to depend on the rank and activity…

Description field for road closures
You want to pass on information about a road closure to other editors so that they can see why a closure was entered. A description field for internal information would be great, as with restrictions. At the moment you have to share the information, for example, through an extra map comment.

Link points POI to an Area POI
Hi guys,
The idea is to link points POI to a Area POI.
For example, linking stores in a Mall or linking a company office in a building.
It's also to avoid this kind of editions : https://www.waze.com/editor?env=row&lon ... 157&zoom=6.
I think this will help editors to determinate which stores or companies are present in a Mall/building and help user to use the right entry to go to shopping or working.
It will be a plus if you can also link, a point POI entry on an Area POI entry.by Ardillon42

Traffic jam voice alerts
Add voice alerts along route for traffic jams up ahead. If you are driving you can not see them until it is too late. Right now, it is only visible on map with no voice alerts.

New suggestion subcategories: (1) UR Handling and (2) Management Tools
Please add suggestion-box subcategories for (1) UR Handling and (2) Management Tools. These are critical aspects of the experience for all Waze editors. Strictly speaking they are somewhat separate from main WME functionality, so it would be more inviting to provide dedicated suggestion subcategories.
UR Handling would involve all aspects of how URs and PURs are submitted and handled, including communication with UR reporters. Community Management Tools would involve Waze tools to support how new and advancing editors are contacted, informed, awarded greater responsibilities, or in the unfortunate but not uncommon case of difficult editor situations, contained.

Speed bumps, buffers & Tollbooths notification.
English: I would like you to add a section to notify the existence of speed bumps or buffers. In Latin America there are many streets, avenues and federal highways that have bumps and at night it is very dangerous because they cannot be seen. This would be a novelty because no gps system has a way to warn you. As well as you could put a notification point where it tells you how many tollbooths you must pass, the location and the costs specifically on the road.
Spanish: Me gustaria que agregaran un apartado para poder notificar la existencia de…

WME notification shouldn't reset counter of PMs in forum
If I get a new private message while I'm in WME, the notification shows a tiny 1, and the counter of unread PMs in the forum is reset to 0. The counter should be reset only after the PM has been read in the forum.

Truck restrictions
I know that in the past this option has been recommended and the staff has rejected it, but I want to approach this question of trucks from another perspective.
Why not create a restriction for trucks in the permalinks as currently exists for taxis, motorcycles, electric cars etc ... and that in the application for users in the vehicle category, the option "truck" is also created. We as editors mark the permalinks with restrictions for these vehicles and the user who chooses this vehicle option in the application will have a more accurate navigation.14 votes -

Speed trap reporting
Our speed traps are in vehicles and not a fixed spot. It would be nice to be able to report the speed trap in app vs going in WME
