Enable Voice alert for approaching Speed bumps
Hello Waze Team,
It would be so helpful for all Wazers to receive Voice alerts when approaching a speed bump so that we can prepare ourselves to slow down before approaching the speed bumps, as actually speed bumps has been added but it does not appear or notify you via voice alert that we are nearing a speed bump.
Grateful to look into adding voice alert when approaching speed bumps.
Thank you,
Kushal

It would be helpful to know if a cross street has a traffic light when gauging how to look for your cross street to turn

Remove bots from the last editor's username (updated field)
Lately, the last editor who edited an object appears to be a bot. There are a few names for bots: "matching feed 1", "waze-maint-bot", "Avsil".
IMO only human editors should appear as the last editor in the "updated" field. For example, if someone uses a script to filter edits done in the previous month, the filter includes many edits done by a bot, which is not what the user wants to see. The bot's name hides the name of the last human editor.
It is suggested that bots will not appear in the "updated" field.7 votes -
Map Editor - More edit room than driving area
Allow editors to have more room to edit than just the area they recently drove. This would allow editors to help each other out better than they currently are. For example I'm a L1 and I've had multiple people help me and they couldn't help edit anything b/c they haven't been to my area which caused confusion when they tried to explain what they see and how to fix it. I've also wanted to help in other areas that I can't drive to on a normal basis and can't because I haven't been there recently. Removing editing restrictions on area…

Revise points awarded for different edit types
Some types of edits are time/labor intensive (adding HNs for example) but earn few points. Others, such as adding RPPs or new streets earn more points and can be done quickly. As a result some edits that really need work but earn few points are neglected. Please take a look at making points earned more equitable based on time/effort needed.

Let's hide roads built in a small number of satellites
Do, please, so that if waze sees at least three satellites, it does not display those tracks in the map editor. It often happens that you forget to disconnect waze and go in the building. Satellite reception quality decreases. And in the editor there is a lot of chaotic tracks around the building. This prevents debris find tracks of roads that were built when waze seen enough satellites for precise positioning.

Limit locking of segments and Speed Cams, as some admins are very precious about their wrong edits and lock everything
Some admins are over possessive of their edits that are wrong in many cases, and just lock everything they do including speed cam locations or small segments. This in my opinion is totally against the crowdsourcing model of Waze where you get the best up to date data by millions of users who can't actually override those locked edits!

Waze Map Editor Multi Plateforme
Actuellement uniquement disponible sur PC via le site web cela pourrait être pratique de l'avoir soit directement inclus dans l'application soit proposer une app permettant d'y avoir accès via nos support portables. car lors de déplacement nous pouvons voirs des erreurs à certains endroits et n'avons pas forcément de PC avec nous et encore moins de possibilités de connexion via celui ci. alors qu'un accès à internet par téléphone et tablette et bien souvent plus aisés.

Turn on u-turns by default in WME
In those countries where u-turns are allowed please turn it on by default in the WME so I don't have to manually edit every time.

Incluir combustibles del vehículo y mostrar en ruta las gasolineras del combustible seleccionado.
Creo muy conveniente poder elegir el combustible de tu vehículo y que mostrará las gasolineras en la ruta seleccionada, con un rango de "x" km para poder marcar la gasolinera y automáticamente recalcular la rupa para llevarte a repostar y seguir la ruta. En mi caso uso GLP (principalmente) y Gasolina.

Traffic jam voice alerts
Add voice alerts along route for traffic jams up ahead. If you are driving you can not see them until it is too late. Right now, it is only visible on map with no voice alerts.

Add gates to the map that can be opened, or closed, for each individual wazer
Every private installation currently has two, or more, roles (employee/visitor/secret/resident/etc) that are often poorly understood by the map editors. Currently, editors are forced to choose one role then use various segment types to direct wazers to the gate(s) used by that role. For example, in a gated neighborhood we might set the public entrance to local street while all of the resident-only entrances are private road.
This idea is to have WME support a gate icon that could be dropped onto a segment. These gates would then be visible on the app's map as buttons which a wazer could select…

Remove restriction types in WME for vehicle types and restrictions that are not currently in-app to choose
Remove all vehicle types in WME, that you cannot currently choose within the Waze App.
This won't apply to vehicle types that are currently planned to be released to the app, but the "Truck" and "Bus" types haven't been selectable in the App for some time now. This is very confusing for newer editors who are trying to make edits, using vehicle types that will have no effect on anything.
Similarly please remove the "lane" restrictions like specific restrictions only for the left lane, etc. These do not work and in some edge cases, actually apply to the whole segment…
