Seems to be unimplementable... Drive at light speed, get there very fast ;) ... how fast do you intend to drive without speed limits... 160km/hour, 200km/hour.
Right now you have options time or distance... sometimes they will coincide, if they don't Waze can't choose for you. What do you want, the fastest or the shortest route. From your description I would say you want "fastest". However fastest will always take into account speed limits as else Waze doesn't know how fast you intend to drive.

This seems like an excessive option: very useful for a small fraction of the user base but useless for 99.99% of the rest.

Search for "improve routing nice car" in the box on the right.

I made a pretty complete proposal for it at https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=657&t=113062 ... which would improve routing a lot (even if not 100% implemented as proposed).

If you would do a democratic vote on it, most people would vote to keep it in Waze. Regardless whether some idiots could abuse it to drive drunk and get around police controls.

Relax, it's already in for a year... go to settings of Waze... click on "Display & map", click on "Alerts on route"... and select the ones you don't want to see.

If you mean you hang the phone on the windscreen with a clear view on the road ahead and you scan all license plates... not that easy too implement I think:
- getting license plates in focus + extra cpu cycles for OCR.
- world wide database of police plates, which police won't like that much
- different kind of plates in different countries.

You're driving a car, not an airplane ;) ... what would an altitude indicator really buy you qua functionality: you can cut down on speed as the next kilometer is going down? So you would constantly look at Waze to see whether you can slow down?
I think there are more important things still missing in Waze, just my 2c.

Not going to happen, too many people only use it just for that.

So you're going to look on your screen when you near another street? I don't think this will happen, it will clutter the interface too much, and you should know priority rules if you have a driver's license.

This option already exists, check Settings... then go into "Display & map", then push "Alerts on route" and deselect the ones you don't want to hear anymore.
So don't vote for this, it's already in.

Is that a responsibility of Waze? What would happen when because of one or the other error all Waze users worldwide would start automatically calling 911?
Waze is not integrated enough with the car to be able to determine with 100% you had a crash.
Waze is a GPS system, most new cars are equipped with emergency response systems that can with 100% accuracy report they had a crash. And even then they usually (right now) don't call 911 directly but they call the helpdesk of the car company.
