Feature Request: Map Your Own Route

Post by inkblob
It would be nice to be able to map a route in Live Map, save it and load it in Waze as a favorite route. Since local drivers usually know the easiest paths to work, school, shopping, etc., Waze can use the saved routes to propose better alternate routes.

That'd also give me notice of any road hazards other Wazers have noted in their app, and allow my app to collect travel speed info for others.

+1 suggestion! With the traffic in town on the interstate, I usually prefer to take the state highways & local streets to travel back to home. I cannot get Waze to plot a alternate route to the one state highway.

Good suggestion, maybe it's possible that it uses this info for navigation during rush hours as locals most of the time also know the better routes during rush.
