conditional tolls
There are some toll segments that go pretty paralell to the public roads, so time savings are more related to traffic (<5 min when comparing vs toll roads).
Waze always will choose the toll segment but for a regular wazer time savings will not be enough to use toll vs public road.
A conditional that let waze to avoid tolls when savings are less than X minutes will help wazers pockets.4 votes -
Add the ford option
Waze should add another option for ford, along with the existing ones: "Unpaved", "Tunnel", etc.
In the Waze Map Editor, the editor could choose this option for the entire length of the road that passes through a body of water.

Gas station service level
Enable editors to add gas station type (self-service, full-service, or either) when adding or modifying a gas station.
On the client side, users should be able to select a preference for self-service or full-service in Settings > Gas stations. In most areas of the US, users don't know the service type until they reach the station.

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.

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.

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

Swap A-B ends of a segment
When I select a single segment it shows A at one end and B at the other. Editing the speeds for each direction on that one segment works correctly. Many roads have some segments facing the opposite direction, and when selecting multiple segments this causes a glitch in the speed limit editing - since it's only editing one direction at a time and the software isn't correctly handling the mismatch of directions. It takes a third selection and typing of the new speed to overcome this glitch, which then shows as 3 changes instead of 2.
The A-B direction is…

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 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…

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.

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!
