    For Families and businesses alike, allow for every user account to have an alternate name that is searchable for employees and family members to add and auto send their ETA to that same address noted as "Home Base".

    For example:
    Work related example
    I am an employee for a company that travels to and from the office a lot. When I set the destination back to the office it will update and alert "Home Base" that I am on my way (On the Live view Map on Waze.com / via a logged in active "Home Base" name on mobile devices.)

    Family Related example
    Great for families to Alert the kids when Mom or Dad are on their way home. To let the parents to know when their child is coming home and if there are any traffic or delays. For a Husband or wife to alert their significant other be aware of when to expect them home for dinner.

    Of course this can be disabled or opted out of if not interested in. If used however this will make the process easier than ever. All you would need is to place the address to travel to, and if there is a "Home Base" associated to that address then that "Home Base" will be alerted that you are on your way. What this allows is a hands free, worry free, and safe way to travel and communication between all parties.
