  1. I495 on long island

    When driving to Long Island, waze insists on traveling on I495. There are so many parkways without trucks on Long Island that you can make better time, yet every time I travel to Long Island it heads towards 495. Today I headed up Northern Parkway,, which waze was heading to eventually, in 8 fun filled miles of sitting. I got off when I saw a sign to Northern Parkway, 4 miles earlier, and took 3 minutes off of my time. I love waze, but Long Island driving is not waze driving. It stears you towards the interstate!

  2. Mark for "No Trucks Allowed"

    In Buckeye, Arizona there is a law prohibiting semi traffic in residential areas. With interstate construction it's creating backups and people are looking for routes around it. It's all well and good till a semi tries to drive through our golf community on a road that the city extended a couple of years ago to give residents easier access to Verrado Way. The semi's hit the reflectors marking the cart path crossings. They hit the curbs that weren't designed for truck dimensions. They also come dangerously close to children waiting on the sidewalk for their school busses. The street I'm…

  3. Control point / guard house on road

    I would like to recommend Waze add a map editing / issue feature for a road control checkpoint. A checkpoint is a common element of various roads around the world and would be important for Waze to add the ability to indicate it.

  9. Allow addition of new traffic signal or stop sign where one did not previously exist.

    Allow editors to add a new traffic signal or stop sign. Allow alert similar to RR crossing sound. Set alert to expire 30-45 days after signal or stop sign is put into service.

  11. 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.

  12. Make new editors complete a quiz on the wiki before they can edit.

    After being locked out from editing after a bad user last year and only regaining editing permissions early this year, I was thinking you could create a compulsory quiz that new editors have to complete before they can edit the map. This would help prevent rogue users that don't understand what their actions do to the maps and creating a better editing experience for everyone.

  17. timeline

    I was accessing the app to see if there was a timeline history on my account as I was trying to see the routes I have been following to compare with other applications and see which ones provide the best routes.
    Recently I experienced some long routes in waze that could have been avoided.

  18. The Ability to add truck restricted routes so drivers do not get tickets.

    As a truck driver, there are routes that are restricted to NO truck traffic. I have received tickets because I was not aware. Late at night it would nice to know if route is restricted because sometimes you cannot see posted signs until it is too late. It is too difficult to safely turn a big truck around past that point...

  20. Emergency vehicle specific routing

    Emergency vehicle specific mode. I suggest creating an emergency, or non-emergency mode, which takes into account the physical size and weight of an emergency vehicle along with handling characteristics and a local jurisdicitons guidelines for how emergency vehicles can and should be operated.

    These are then used to feed you directions that are ideal for your emergency vehicle taking into account shortcuts, restricted access routes etc.
