Abandoned Car & Trucks on Shoulder Hazards shortcut
The "Car on Shoulder" is becoming a standard warning for mostly just abandoned cars, the problem with this is there could be a genuine hazzard where there is a car slightly hanging over or someone changing their tire, three car pile ups, etc.
The problem of the vagueness of "car on shoulder" is being overused. It should stay, but we might need others like "Abandoned Car" and "Truck on Shoulder" for like a tow truck or a semi-truck with a blown out tire or a larger vehicle on or near the road.

When reporting traffic jam other drivers should be able to say "Not There" whenever it clears up
There are sometimes warnings for a traffic jam with slowness or standstill and the traffic has cleared up, however it seems to stay there on the map for ages.
This needs to be prompted to the users in the same way. Asking "Still there?"

Change sound for "Car on Shoulder" - This one is overused on Highways
I'm listening to music travelling down the highway only to be interupted by the Ding sound on the alerts Sound for the notification of "Car on Shoulder" hazard. Which since this one is actually just abandoned cars, this one goes off every 5km or so.
I need a way to be able to record my own sound for "Car on Shoulder" or some way to remove that Ding sound it makes.
I really only like to hear the important hazards: Police, Object on Road, Traffic Jam, etc.

Add Digital Wallet/E-Wallet as an option for Services Provided and Parking Lot payment methods
I think it's high time we add Digital Wallet/E-Wallets as an accepted payment method alongside Credit Cards in Places and also as a Payment Method in Parking Lots. A lot of places now, at least in Malaysia, accepts the use of digital wallet QR codes for payment instead of Credit/Debit cards.

I want to put a warning icon like in partnership
I would like to see the Waze Partnership-specific warning icons, which can currently only be installed on-site, made easier to install. For example, it would be useful to have a system where you can pull over and set it on the navigation screen, or a function where you can set it using the Waze Editor in your browser.

Feed - Unique "Area" setting per feed type or "distance" sorting.
I most often use the Solve Feeds to work User Reported issues across my managed area. While looking a those, I am inclined to work nearby surfaced MS and PUR. However those feeds greatly exceed the limit of items exposed.. As a result, the items in the feed are only the 500 most recent items, regardless of their proximity to where I am currently viewing. I'm not inclined to switch feeds and click though the 10 pages of items to get to the "Load more", and repeat that 5-10 times for the PUR feed, and then more than 50 times…

Switch the report hazard and speedmeter icons around
I just thought it'd make sense to switch the icons around because as a right hand side drive, I want my speed closer to my eye line.

Allow to default sort the searches by distance
when searching for a place such as "costco" for example, allow your searches to always search by distance from route if already in a drive, or distance from the current location if not in a drive already.

Show map error icon in the app / Kartenfehler Icon in der App anzeigen
Report card error should be displayed as an icon in the app so that the sender can see that the card error has been transmitted and can also edit the comment by clicking on the icon to make it easier for the editor to solve the problem.

Spike Risk Area Alert
I’d like to propose a new community-reportable hazard feature for Waze specific to South Africa’s growing road safety issue.
Over the past few years, there has been a serious increase in criminal incidents involving metal spikes being placed on roads especially on poorly lit highways and rural routes at night. Criminals use these spikes to cause tire blowouts or immobilize vehicles, forcing drivers to stop and then robbing or attacking them.
Why Waze Users Need This:
Many Waze drivers rely on Waze to avoid police traps, traffic, and accidents. Being able to mark or receive warnings about known “spiking hotspots”…3 votes -
You can't go to the event announcement page from the live map page, right?
Currently, you can go to the live map from the event announcement page, but you can't go to the event announcement page from the live map. It would be more convenient if you could go there. It would be easier to understand if you put it above the edit button on the live map.

Newly reported UR - Poor wording on blank URs
The 4 lines on a new blank UR about there are no comments yet feel free to ask a question is overly worded and takes up a lot of screen space.
It basically makes editors scroll down on every UR to write custom comments.
"No comments yet.
You can ask the Wazer who
submitted this report for more
information."Ask for more info here." sums up all of the above.
