Drivable Areas
The current solution for parking lots and gas stations is not particularly user friendly. A user driving within these areas is directed to follow parking lot road segments which can be very complex and still may not represent the paths that drivers actually follow.
A means to give a user a general instruction to proceed to a particular exit to get going on their route could result in a better user experience, especially in the case of of multi-level parking structures where a user may drive in circles repeatedly as they proceed to the exit level.3 votes -
Fix bug when multiple URs are submitted from the exact same location.
When multiple URs are submitted at the exact same location only the last one can be opened. When you try to open the others the display hangs and a hard refresh must be used.

Add Names of Lakes and Rivers to the display in the APP
In some areas bodies of water are significant landmarks that aid in navigation. The names of major bodies of water are shown in the Live Map already. I assume the names shown in the LM are coming from the Water Layer. Enabling these names to be displayed would be a great addition to the App.

speed limit user poll
The idea is very simple but could improve the editors SLUR extremly.
In the moment we have poll´s for Police controll, Accident, Danger and so on.
Why not having a Posibility to do an limited (e.g.48hours) Poll for a Speed Limit like "is 120km/h the correct Limitation" (Yes, No)
and display the Poll Result in WME which would easyly allow to check if a submitted Speedlimit is correct.3 votes -
Multiple Sets of Hours
Enable Waze editors to add multiple sets of hours for a location. Example: a restaurant with drive-thru, eat-in, takeout, and delivery hours. Perhaps editors can add these sets of hours when they add the place attributes.
Another example would be a gas station with a deli that has different hours from the rest of the station.
I think adding sets of hours is too complicated for drivers; it should be reserved for editors if implemented, at least in the early stages.

2-way turn lane
Add support for 2-way median turn lanes to WME lane guidance. Users would be prompted to use the left median lane (or something easier to comprehend).

Feature to Report Police sighted driving on-road
This feature is similar to the already existing police reporting feature. The ability to report on route (driving) police vehicles will allow drivers to be more aware on the road, as well as reduce the number of accidents caused by speeding, mobile device usage, and/or other distractions and activities.

Turn highlight
Currently a turn is highlighted when you hover over it in the LG menu. But if you then click the turn to change it, the highlight disappears when selecting a different arrow icon. Please keep the highlight when the mouse moves over the dropdown.

Smoke on Road
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.

WME needs an option
WME needs an option in reports that has like, "following" for a check box and only reports that I have responded to at any time will be shown.

Make editor impact more obvious
Drivers get a regular report of their reporting impact, such as how many reports and how many people were impacted and helped. It would be nice if WME did something similar. Perhaps in the editing history show some statistics to allow editors to see their impact for edits.
Such as:
Segments: Give a rough estimate of how many drivers navigated to a destination on this segment or traversed the segment (such as navigated to a PP with a stop point or to a HN).
Places: How many users have searched for / navigated to this place.

Display clogged and cluttered with senseless labels of streetnames
Quite often, in dense areas, the display of my cellphone is cluttered with adjacent streetnames shown as big labels. These labels/names hide the map details (i.e. approaching turns, exits etc.). So I am distracted by zooming in and out and panning the screen.
I would REALLY like the opportunity, to switch OFF the streetname label.3 votes -

Ability to turn off notifications for individual cameras that you regularly encounter
I drive past a specific speed camera every single day - I know it’s there! It would be good if you could stop notifications for individual cameras that you know about - a “Got it - don’t notify about this again” button would really help!

aggiungere la possibilità di correggere il limite di velocità in vigore sulla tratta percorsa (ove errato o modificato da lavori)
Vivo in svizzera. In questo paese la velocità consentita cambia molto frequentemente (specialmente in corrispondenza di lavori stradali) e questa cosa non va molto d'accordo con il fatto che qui sia consentito mettere autovelox senza alcun avviso. sarebbe fantastico se potessimo correggere i limiti di velocità in tempo reale per garantire la migliore informazione possibile a tutti.

Temporary driving directions (roadworks/ rerouting)
Temporary driving directions visible directly on the live map such as closures and that temporarily override the set driving direction in WME. This would be useful for one-way streets where there is a temporary reversal of driving direction due to roadwork or rerouting.
