I would like to suggest a useful improvement for the Waze app, especially for driving without an active navigation route.

Currently, when a user is navigating to a destination and approaches a complex intersection or a multi-lane junction, Waze displays the lane layout and highlights the recommended lane for the route.

My suggestion is to display similar lane information even when the user is driving without active navigation.

When approaching a multi-lane intersection, Waze could show the available lane directions on the screen, for example: left lane for turning left, second lane from the left for left turn or straight, middle lanes for going straight, right lane for turning right, etc.

In this mode, there would be no need to highlight a recommended lane, since there is no active route. The purpose would only be to show the driver the lane layout and the permitted directions from each lane.

This would be very helpful because even during regular driving without navigation, drivers sometimes reach complex intersections and do not notice in time which lane goes where, whether a certain lane allows a left turn, whether the second lane from the left can also turn left, and so on.

Displaying the lane information in advance could help drivers choose the correct lane more safely, reduce last-minute lane changes, reduce confusion, and improve both traffic flow and road safety.

Since this lane information already exists in Waze and is used during active navigation, it seems that the main change would be to display the existing data also when driving without a destination, without calculating a route or recommending a specific lane.

I believe this could be a significant improvement to the driving experience, especially at large intersections, interchanges, multi-lane urban roads, and unfamiliar areas.

Thank you for considering this suggestion.

Best regards,
