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.

Residential quality of life is being horribly diminished by massive increases in cut through traffic routing. Not only are personal vehicles using residential neighborhoods for cut through - so are commercial - and this is in large part due to apps such as Waze. The word "Route" has a traffic control definition. I.E. throughout the country NUMBERED ROUTES were created with the intent that those numbered routes be used for traffic movement/flow. Apps such as Waze take people off Routes for the sake of sometimes seconds saved - yet with GREAT negative affect on the side areas that are not intended to be used for routing. Recently a friend was routed off a Route - and onto a residential street - only to be back on the route minutes later. We are so deeply enmeshed in a loss of/lack of common courtesy. It would be nice if apps, such as Waze, were supportive contributors to courtesy. Apps could be tweaked to help people get from point A to point Z, but without harmful effects on the abutters to roadways not intended to be Routes. Google/Waze - any desire to be the "Considerate App"????
