It would be helpful to have improved tools for marking closed or restricted roads, managing HOV/toll lanes, and updating traffic rules.
It would be helpful to have improved tools for marking closed or restricted roads, managing HOV/toll lanes, and updating traffic rules more quickly. Better validation for edits and clearer guidance for new editors would make contributions more accurate and reduce errors in the map.

Carril Reversible en Guatemala
Permitir reportar carril reversible en Guatemala, las autoridades habilitan este tipo de carriles para agilizar el tráfico y sería una buena opción reportar dónde inician y dónde terminan para otros conductores, también estar alertas que durante cierto horario hay cambio de vías para evitar accidentes.

Semi-Permanent Hazards
Allow editors to add semi-permanent hazards such as lane blockages and construction, similarly to how we can add fully-permanent hazards like speed bumps and sharp curves.

Alertas atrapalhando navegação ao deslocar rota para a direita
Boa tarde!
Não gostei da posição dos alertas no lado esquerdo superior da tela, fazendo com que a imagem do alerta desloque a rota para o lado direito e em um tamanho menor, dificultando visualização da rota. O mais importante em apps de navegação é a rota, e não os alertas. Os alertas são bons, ajudam, porém, deviam aparecer no lado direito, sem atrapalhar a imagem da rota. Gostaria de publicar imagens aqui, porém não encontrei campo. Me refiro ao Waze utilizado no Brasil. Grato, Roger3 votes -
Towing mode
Cars towing caravans and trailers are limited to 60mph
A towing mode would adjust the ETA for a max speed of 60.3 votes -
Van/weight limit routes
I have a van that exceeds the weight limit for the Rotherhithe, but there’s no way in which I can stop Waze taking me that route. Could you add a feature so I can select my car type as a van so it won’t send me down these restricted routes and give me a fine.

Set user level using points
I've been an active user on waze for over 10 years reporting items like police cams and intermittent construction. In order to make any edits to the map requires level 3 which currently requires 5000 edits. Add an additional way to achieve higher levels based on user points. For example I have 239,582 points and it doesn't seem they are really useful for anything.

LPG (GLP) stations
I would like to suggest adding LPG (GLP) stations as a specific fuel category in the app. In the Dominican Republic, a large percentage of vehicles run on LPG, and it is currently difficult for users to locate these specific stations quickly. Adding a dedicated filter or icon for LPG would greatly improve the navigation experience for thousands of drivers in the region.

Animal Crossing and Equestrian Road Usage Attributes
Requesting a feature in Waze Map Editor that allows editors to assign permanent animal-related road attributes to road segments.
Many roads are marked with official signs indicating wildlife crossings, or regular use by horse riders. These represent ongoing, predictable conditions rather than temporary hazards, but there is currently no structured way to reflect them in the map.
This feature should allow editors to tag roads with:
Animal crossing (e.g., wildlife such as deer or moose)
Equestrian road usage (roads frequently used by riders)
Making these attributes visible to drivers would improve awareness and safety, especially on rural or mixed-use roads…

Animals
Add a dedicated “Animal Hazard” report category in Waze for:
• Animals on the road
• Animals near the roadside (ditches, shoulders)
• Injured or dead animalsIncreases driver safety, reduces wildlife collisions, and improves awareness of animal hazards.

Have a checkbox for "Cash Only" instead of or as well as "Accepts Credit Cards" in the Services menu
As most businesses accept credit cards, I feel like a more applicable option to select would be for "Cash Only" as that is very important information to know about a place before heading there.

Add Keyboard Shortcuts to Google Places / Agregar atajos de teclado a Google Places
I would like to suggest adding keyboard shortcuts to Google Places.
Keyboard shortcuts could help users work more efficiently by reducing the need for repetitive mouse actions, especially when reviewing or editing multiple places. This improvement would save time, improve usability, and make the overall experience faster and more comfortable for advanced users.La sugerencia que deseo hacer es agregar atajos de teclado a Google Places.
Los atajos de teclado permitirían a los usuarios trabajar de manera más rápida y eficiente, reduciendo el uso repetitivo del mouse, especialmente al revisar o editar varios lugares. Esta mejora ayudaría a ahorrar tiempo,…3 votes -
Eliminate "HN already used" error.
When adding HNs, if a particular number and street name combination exist anywhere else in the state, you get an error message that the HN 'can't be added because it already exists on the street.' It's not unusual for a street name to be used many times in other cities in the state.
There are work-arounds to force the HN to be accepted but it would be much simpler if the city name could be considered in determining if that the HN already exists. A street name is normally used only one time in a city so when there are…

Add “Speed bump” as a map error report option
Add “Speed bump” as a map error report option
It would be useful to allow users to report speed bumps as a map error instead of only as a general hazard.
Currently, speed bumps are often missing or inconsistently mapped, and reporting them through broad categories reduces accuracy and slows down data correction.
Proposed feature:
- Add “Speed bump missing” or “Incorrect speed bump” under Map error reports
- Allow users to pin the exact location on the map
- Optional details (type, size, visibility)
Benefits:
- more precise map data
- faster correction of missing road features
- improved routing accuracy and driver awareness
