Consolidate the two WME suggestion boxes
Please consolidate the two Uservoice-based WME suggestion boxes. There has been a "Waze Map Editor" subcategory of the "Waze Suggestion Box" for at least a few years, and due to default links and navigation that is still an easier suggestion box to find than this one. Or, is there a reason to have two different suggestion boxes for WME?

Optimize Road Shield Display on all Live Map Zoom Levels
Different zoom levels of Livemap appears to display road shields differently some of the "higher" zoom levels shows so many shields that it is distracting and does not look polished. All zoom levels should be optimized to group shields so that the map isn't littered with shields.
Please see example screenshots

Mark segments as "slip lanes" that delay voice instructions
At the moment, ramp segments generally delay voice instructions until you have merged or turned onto the segments at the end of the ramp, such as a freeway or highway.
Australia and some other countries utilise "slip lanes" at some intersections, which is basically a left turn (for countries that drive on the left) that does not use the main intersection.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_lane
When a slip lane is mapped on Waze, we usually implement the turn instruction where the driver enters the slip lane, as that is where they need to be told to turn. However, this can mean that Waze…

"View in Street View" button for places
Added "View in Street View" button for places, similar to what update requests have.
This request is motivated by the fact that, at times, Street View is not aligned with the segments and you have to go hunting for the point where it is available.7 votes -

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...

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.

Disable double click zoom
An option to disable this feature, or disable it completely. I've never used the double click to zoom in into something. That's the wheel for, or even the buttons on the side of the editor.
Many times when the WME becomes unresponsive or laggy it is common that while selecting something the selection is not captured, so one tries again to select what ever it was trying to select, however instead of selecting a magic zoom in comes into play.7 votes -

Show place sub-categories sorted A to Z
When a general category is assigned to a new place, its sub-categories are shown in some constant but not obvious order. I suggest sorting the sub-categories in A-Z order (according to the used language).
