Originally created by Seekingserenity who is now inactive with Waze, then patched by Rickzabel. It also adjust the side and top bar, giving more map space and other enhancements.

That's because you should be using Expwy in the USA. Does the sign actual use Expy? If so please send a link

That is against the national MUTCD. This needs to be discussed with the regional coordinator to determine a guidance. Match the sign vs deviate by one letter to create a uniform app experience and follow the MUTCD recommendation.

Do you have any permalinks for these roads, should they really have a period in the name? This is a check which is specific to USA and checks that names are in accordance with our recommended abbreviations.

Yes in Douglas and Grant County in WA have periods in the street name. When its a parralel road from the main one. Example G Rd NW, streets between that and F Rd NW would be something like G.7 Rd NW or G.3 Rd NW. I have confirmed from County GiS and one person who lives in the area thats how the streets are named. These are the same streets where i have the issue with TTS. Here is a PL of one of the road signs in that area. https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lo ... lter=false

Here is another PL of a road example at intersection. https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lo ... lter=false

If you need any other info let me know.
Part of the reason for the check is to avoid TTS issues. We may have to do something to accomodate here, or work around.

    Disconnect node B from all of the drivable segments.

I would say, don't mark it as an error when:
- the non-driveable is a dead-end road.
- the non-driveable has housenumbers on it.

We consider that someone has arrived at his destination when he reaches the limit of the drivable roadway.
What if you didn't?

Another request ;-)
Is it possible to get a report when roads are connected to driveable roads with a specific streetname?

In this case the following:
busbaan
spoorlijn
tram
metro

Those should never be connected to driveable segments.
