On urban roads, it often happens that Waze takes me sometimes to narrow roads with bumpers, with lots of traffic lights just to save me a minute of driving.
It's the same on long-distance roads, it takes me to narrow two-way roads sometimes twisting where driving is more dangerous and at night Roads without lighting just to save me 3 minutes.
It should be possible for the user to set a preference for the main roads (which are usually wider with one-way routes) where he will decide if he is willing to travel and extend the time by a certain percentage determined by him (say 10% more time in return for driving on main roads).
I'm a software engineer by profession and know that development is not easy, especially the diagnosis between a "bad" road to its alternative, but it is certainly a feasible task for the Waze team.
Good day,

I would appreciate your response.
