Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

I do agree they're a bit ambiguous, but I think using descriptive words like congestion and slowdown would be worse. For example, you seem to think congestion is minor traffic and slowdown is in the middle, but I would think slowdown would be minor (like in a construction zone) and congestion would be slow-moving, more in-line with "heavy." I think this may be a case of people just using their best judgement and hopefully Waze is smart enough to determine the most commonly reported type and use that.

This is needed both to more accurately identify where they are and to avoid false positives. People report police when they see them driving, which leads to false positives. This is the best suggestion for this I've seen, as it gives a good recommendation for how to actually do this. It's basically the same thing I came up with, to continually update it based on estimation of their location based on the speed limit and on new reports, until a certain amount of time elapses with no new reports. Biggest problem would be accounting for where the police are in relation to the second (and third, and so on) driver when they like the report, not to mention the initial reporting driver.
As for tips, neat idea, but I wonder if it would just add more complexity for something few people would actually use. I honestly doubt I would tip anyone, as my payment is all the things I report to warn other drivers. We all help each other, and our payment is everyone else helping us.

Thanks for your feedback. While this was on our roadmap, our plans have since shifted. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Thank you for your suggestion!
This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.
Stay tuned for more features and updates on Waze’s social pages on Facebook and Instagram.Steven

There are other requests to be able to report police on the other side or in the middle, which I definitely agree needs to be added, but this request is especially important, because it allows users to be warned regardless of how it was reported. I'd rather get a few false positives than false negatives.

I don't even necessarily want to mute it, but there needs to be an option to turn the volume of the recalculating beep down. It's far louder than the warnings and other audio from the phone like podcasts and is literally painful.
