Add destination after the actual destination (optional)
When I add a destination when it is already one destination, it adds before the actual destination. I would like to have the option to add after the actual destination

Associate permanent hazards with a path
When using permanent hazards, they sometimes only apply to some of the traffic on a give segment. An example would be a freeway segment where oncoming traffic from one ramp, and exiting traffic from the freeway merge on a specific segment between on and off ramps. If we add the multiple lanes merging hazard, it will alert for both groups but also all traffic that continues on the freeway even though it does not impact them. Instead, I have it mapped on the on-ramp but not for exiting traffic to alert to this often challenging merge zone.

Add “Speed bump” as a map error report option
Add “Speed bump” as a map error report option
It would be useful to allow users to report speed bumps as a map error instead of only as a general hazard.
Currently, speed bumps are often missing or inconsistently mapped, and reporting them through broad categories reduces accuracy and slows down data correction.
Proposed feature:
- Add “Speed bump missing” or “Incorrect speed bump” under Map error reports
- Allow users to pin the exact location on the map
- Optional details (type, size, visibility)
Benefits:
- more precise map data
- faster correction of missing road features
- improved routing accuracy and driver awareness

It would be very helpful to add a real-time GPS location marker in the Waze Map Editor.
It would be very helpful to add a real-time GPS location marker in the Waze Map Editor.
Currently, when centering the map, there is no indicator showing the editor’s actual GPS position. This makes it harder to align edits with real-world locations, especially when verifying map data on-site.
Proposed feature:
- Display a live GPS marker (similar to the mobile app)
- Optional toggle (on/off)
- Auto-center or quick jump to current position
Benefits:
- Faster and more accurate mapping
- Easier field verification
- Reduced errors when adding or editing road features
This would significantly improve usability for editors working directly in the field.

Absent Segments in Waze
There are people using Waze moving through segments NOT YET drawn.
KoiFish apparently can not trigger a warning for us to create such segments.Examples (enable GPS points to see)

Icon on map screen to report pot holes in 1 action, current set up means that you have to press 3 icons to report a pot hole.
Icon on map screen to report pot holes in 1 action, current set up means that you have to press 3 icons to report a pot hole. Due to the increasing number of pots holes this would make it easier to report. I report pot holes more then any other action in waze.

Eliminate "HN already used" error.
When adding HNs, if a particular number and street name combination exist anywhere else in the state, you get an error message that the HN 'can't be added because it already exists on the street.' It's not unusual for a street name to be used many times in other cities in the state.
There are work-arounds to force the HN to be accepted but it would be much simpler if the city name could be considered in determining if that the HN already exists. A street name is normally used only one time in a city so when there are…

New camera type: Illegal turn
The number of camera type have been increased lately which is good, but I miss an 'Illegal turn' camera type. Since we have red light cameras and stop sign cameras we also need an illegal turn one. These monitor wheter you make and illegal turn or in a multi-lane intersection you violate your lane's instructions (turn right from a straight only lane etc.)
I think these, just like the red light camers and bus lanes cameras are international.4 votes -
Indonesia ETLE Camera
In Indonesia, all traffic enforcement cameras operate under one unified system: ETLE (Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement) Camera.
To ensure accuracy in WME, provide clarity on which camera type is valid, and avoid confusion among Indonesian editors, we'd like to request a dedicated Indonesia ETLE camera type that reflect the applicable traffic enforcement regulation for Indonesia.

Map Display - Hotels
Would be helpful for Waze to display on cell/vehicle map area hotels, just like you do with filling stations. Garmin does it.
Justification: It's troublesome having to stop the vehicle on the side of the road just to search the web for local hotel locations while on a road trip. Quite time consuming.

Add Keyboard Shortcuts to Google Places / Agregar atajos de teclado a Google Places
