A triangular road section to show a left turn into street and a left turn only exiting street onto main road.
When you are in 2D street view you can see streets sometimes have a left turn into street and a left turn only onto main road how can that be reproduced onto the map.

Customizable Safety Zones (permanent hazards)
We have different "safe zones" that the government created to help make a safer road environment for senior pedestrians (Silver Zones), similar to what is commonly known as "School Zones". Do we have the option to customize permanent hazards for each country? So that drivers can notified about the reduced speed limits at such areas, and each country is able to customize the types of hazards accordingly.

House number layer should disable
With the new house number editing flow, once you edit a house number and leave house number editing, the House Number layer remains active. The layer should return to disabled if it was disabled before editing the house number.

Permanent Hazard Cameras: Electronic Toll Collection
Many locations are now using electronic toll collection systems that take a photo of a user’s license plate, then send the user either a bill or a violation/penalty notice by mail. Since this is relatively new tech, a common concern over many of these applications is that they could be easy to miss, thus causing confusion over an “invisible toll” even if clearly signed. Additionally, some of these toll cameras also act as lane-use and HOV lane cameras in the case of express and HOT lanes. In some jurisdictions, they even act as speed cameras.
Since PHs show up on…

Allow the user to spot unexistent speed track assigned on the map
Allow the user to spot errors on the map specifically regarding if permanent speed traps assigned on the map actually exist or not. Nowadays, such an error is spotted as a general error on the map.

Support "alternate one ways" as permanent hazards
Allow mapping permanent "alternate one ways" as permanent hazards.
Alternate one ways are two-way roads that are not wide enough for two vehicles to transit in opposite directions at the same time.
In Europe, they are the road section within a square blue sign with two arrows (this side has the right of way) and a white circle with 2 arrows with a red border (this way must give way if someone is already transiting from the other direction).
75 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on the option to map alternate one ways as permanent hazard. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

User defined low speed input for better accuracy in journey time.
Not all vehicles can travel at the posted speed limit. Some are limited by type or load. It would be cool if Waze could accommodate this and give an accurate ETA based on the planned speed of the vehicle, rather than the posted limit. For example, the maximum legal speed limit for any vehicle towing a trailer is 80 km/h on all roads in Ireland. Similar restrictions apply to HGV's. A reduced speed field at the start of a route plan would be great for all those drivers.

Pop-Up Alert telling users the address they are routing to has been updated recently
It would be awesome if there was a system that alerted a user that's navigating to an address that has recently been updated and then ask if they would like to continue to the old location or if they would like to go the new updated location. This would help a ton when it comes to URs that are reporting that navigation to their house is wrong and delivery drivers or even family and friends cannot properly find the house because Waze has the pin improperly placed. (And yes, I know there's no way to know for sure the other…

Layers: Color according to speed
It would be helpful to have a new filter allowing users to quickly view speed limits. Red: 110 km/h, green: 50 km/h, etc.
This filter would also allow users to identify roads for which no speed limit is recorded in the editor.

Counter for Chargers at a Charging Station
Please add a counter to charging station tab Chargers. Once you need to scroll (~7+ charging points), it's difficult to assess how many chargers there are. Example: this Tesla Supercharger: https://waze.com/nl/editor?env=row&lat=52.16064&lon=4.54912&zoomLevel=20&venues=2949642.29824096.27841780

Camera Type: Yellow Box
There is locally to me a traffic enforcement camera that ensures a yellow box outside a fire station near a busy junction is kept clear. There is not currently a camera type that is applicable and can be added.

WME Notes List
Should add a tab in the left side panel with a list of all our Notes and those we have answered so we can quickly find them again on the map.

Suggest an Edit: Endpoint and junction nodes
New editors can add new roads, suggest changes to segment attributes, and add new geometry nodes for existing roads. But this isn't very useful without being able to:
- Suggest connecting a new or existing segment to an existing segment (making a new junction node)
- Suggest moving or otherwise editing an existing endpoint node
It would be great for Suggest an Edit to fully support editing road geometry, connecting segments, and editing junctions.

Adding a comment when requesting new aerial images
When L6 editors request up-to-date images for the WME, it would be useful if they could write a comment (for example, for whom they have requested the images) and this comment should also reappear when they get the notification that the new images have been provided.
It could also be helpful to have access to a list or map showing the areas that the new images were requested for so that new images are not requested for the same area by different editors.

Allow for issue tracker to show results in descending order
Currently the default view of issue tracker results is ascending (newest to oldest.) It would be nice to allow the results to show in reverse (oldest to newest.) Sometimes I want to address the oldest issues first so that there are not so many backlogged.

Full Multi-Stop Route Planning
I’d like to request a true multi-stop route feature like Google Maps has, where you can add and reorder several stops in a single trip. This would make it much easier to plan errands or road trips without having to set each leg separately.

add time zone change
Exit 340 on I-40 West is US-11W (Bristol Hwy) near Knoxville, Tennessee is where the time zone sign is posted but it does not show up on waze. It would be nice to see that since watching the clock on the phone while you drive is difficult.
