We plan to work on Speed Limit Change Alert in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

I don't think this idea works as you suggested. What if you come to a drastic stop, but avoided a crash and are now stuck in a traffic jam? Your report would go out falsely reporting an accident.
To reliably do this you'd need something like a g-force monitor, but do phones even have this? Even then, what if you have the Waze open and then drop the phone?
As others have said, calling emergency services should be the first priority.
In either case, I believe Waze would detect you weren't moving and automatically set a traffic jam on the map if you were incapacitated.

We plan to work on simulating navigation while driving in a tunnel in the near future. In the meantime, make sure you’ve got the latest version of Waze for all the latest features.

How would you determine this? There's a lot of assumptions to make here. You would have the pick the route with the most segments that are going at highway speeds (around 55 MPH), but not so fast that you lose fuel economy.
I know the Mythbusters some years ago showed that only making right turns at intersections was more fuel efficient than waiting to make a left turn.
You can also increase fuel economy if you follow the slip stream of the vehicle in front.

I don't think Waze should be focused on integrating different laws. It's a navigation app not a driver aid.

If you use a vent clip, you can put your phone pretty close to your normal viewing area when driving. My concern with a HUD for night driving is hindering the ability to see (but I've never driven a car with a HUD feature before).

I agree that alerts should be given at different distances, but time/speed dependent. I see little benefit to changing police reports as the majority of the time from my driving the cops are no longer there. I don't think the police report is meant to benefit speeders.

This sounds more like a map editor related issue. If a location is a known Airbnb, it could be added to the map as "Lodging". The problem arises from having to link it to an external provider and, in some states/countries, the legality of Airbnbs. The latter I would argue is beyond the scope of a map editor's duties.

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 can understand the irritation in your case, but couldn't you just save the address and give it a name like "Work - Office" or "Work - Job Site"?

What we are aiming to do here is speed based alerters.

I'm not sure how critical this needs to be. The majority of the time someone reports Police where I drive, no one is there. Almost as if they reported a cop after they pulled someone over, in which case they aren't going to mess with you unless they have backup nearby.

I feel like they'd need an abstraction layer for this to work properly in code. By which I mean you'd have to first choose if your petroleum or electric where those choices determine where you search for gas stations or EV charging stations.
I disagree with the comment to remove preferred fuel type. If my car requires premium, I'd rather Waze show me stations with premium and their prices. In an ideal world, the prices would be more up to date than they are in reality (saw some prices that were 60 days old).

I'd love to see a Pawn Shop category added.
You can set the app to always show the speed limit. It dings every time you go to a new road segment with a speed limit set if speeding.
This is an unnecessary addition.
