An error occurred while saving the comment Can I suggest you make a post on the Waze forums requesting assistance from one of the many volunteer map editors? If the business is listed incorrectly on Waze, they can move the business on the map and correct any details that are incorrect so that users and your customers have a better experience. You'll need to include the name of the business and the correct address. It might also be helpful to find the location on the Waze map (https://www.waze.com/live-map) and then "share" the link to the location for the editors to find it easily.
You can find forums for most countries around the world here: https://www.waze.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=19

An error occurred while saving the comment The Waze Crisis team already keeps an eye out for disasters around the global and responds to them by closing roads, adding shelter pins to the map, adding evacuation zones to the map that warn users of danger, and much more.

An error occurred while saving the comment The problem with this suggestion is that hazard reporting is generally time sensitive. Reporting police or something on the road is generally only useful when the information can be displayed immediately on the map for other Wazers behind the reporter to see. Adding the hazards retrospectively significantly reduces the value. Police regularly move, traffic hazards resolve, and traffic jams are dynamic, etc.
Though in small areas where there is no cell signal because it is blocked by builds or mountains, it might be useful. But it's a significant investment of coding time in what seems like small return. And an internet connection is required to use Waze.

An error occurred while saving the comment I’m not sure what country you’re representing, but did you know there’s different languages in WME and the app?
If your country or language is missing from WME or the app, you can talk to the localising staff at Waze about adding your missing language. For example, English (Australia) was added to cater for some of the subtle differences in language between the default English, English US and English UK languages.
If your language is already listed, you can talk to your country’s localiser volunteer who may be able to change "unpaved" to "poor roads" in that language. It would then appear as “poor roads” for everyone using that language in the WME and app. If you don’t know who this is, reach out to your country’s coordinator for help.
Hope this helps!

At the moment, this is not planned. That said, we introduced more user settings in URs that hopefully have improved the overall experience.

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.

Can you share the location of this example? Head to https://www.waze.com/live-map, find the exact location, click share (or the link icon in the bottom right) and paste the hyperlink here so we can see where it is. Local volunteer editors might be able to improve the area to overcome this problem.
