Allow for combined speed/red light cameras on map edits
Australia has combined speed and red-light cameras, so we need to be able to add this new type of camera.

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.

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

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.

Coming up to your destination
The app no longer gives an indication that you are near your destination or whether your destination is on the left or right anymore. I am constantly driving past my destination before I notice it. The app doesn't even "redirect" as I drive past.

Emergency Closures and Events/accident reporting
Allow users to add more than one section of road to a road closure.
It would be good if emergency closures would show up in the app to influence driving directions, and if we could report closures longer than one section of road.
I was driving somewhere on the weekend, and there'd been a fatal accident on the Highway at 2 am, but Waze still told me to drive using that section of the highway.
When I looked the accident had been reported on the app hours before I left, and there were comments on the accident about what sections…

Radar ou Câmera De Monitoramento?
Implementar opção para informar se é câmera ou radar: se alguém marcar um novo radar, aparecerá a popup no canto inferior para outros usuários reportarem se é radar ou câmera. Após 1000 usuários "votarem" o aplicativo assumirá o mais votado. Como por exemplo o ponto https://maps.app.goo.gl/7vGVeH3dbH6oodDB7 que possui radar de velocidade nos dois sentidos mas não consigo informar isto.

Exempting some editors from waiting for changes to be applied to the map
Hi .
I don’t know if Waze can exempt some editors who dedicated their lives to editing from the 24-hour waiting period for changes.
Several reasons support this idea:
such as editors having limited time due to family and work commitments.
Some actions require immediate attention, and exceptions could enhance map accuracy, accelerate change application, and impress users with faster updates, attracting new users.Your thoughts stemmed from adding a Gate to a mall, experiencing instant change app, prompting the idea of applying this efficiency to the entire map.
thanks!

I am the GIS Analsyt for Saluda County, SC and I am looking for a way to share my road centerline and address point databases with Waze.
I just completed a readdressing project where our entire unincorporated area of our county was readdressed. I would like to be able to submit the current databases to Waze so that correct information is in the Waze maps. I can't find anywhere to do that.

Horrible new display! Wrecked into a ditch what happened to the exit numbers
WHY would you put the miles left ABOVE the exit you’re supposed to take? And what’s worse is you also make the long names of the exits the SAME font size as the exit number. I’m in Atlanta and almost had a wreck because I was so dang busy reading the stupid street names of the exit and the miles left, I barely could see the actual EXIT NUMBER and had to run into a ditch desperately trying to read where the exit number was. Please reconsider changing it back b cause I was not ready for that. Splot seconds…
