It's crucial to be able to submit a hazard at a location I can not go to. Say there is an accident at the corner of Main st. and Williams st. I am a block away looking at fire trucks, ambulances, and police. the intersection is blocked. I have no way to notify the waze community. Getting and giving timely info about that roads status is the whole point, and would have saved me 10 mins and I could have saved other drivers now making a u-turn time as well. Many serious road hazards that actually effect driving patterns and flow are not currently postable. (Yes I can note the traffic it might cause with posts from all directions eventually) This has to be a very high priority, right?

Weeks?
Months!

So, don't suspect it to be available on the www server any time soon. (or in the following months ;) )

^^ This is not a Waze feature.
It's a program written by the Waze community, so those people are giving it priority, but also have a day to day job besides.

For now and the next months it will not be available in the usa. Please try again around august ;-)

I would very much like to see this.

Only discovered Waze a few days ago and have already fallen in love with it. I use a black box app (I'll leave the name out in-case there are rules against "plugging") in conjunction with Waze -- the black box makes note of not only speed and time, but current Latitude and Longitude. I began reviewing footage from a lengthy drive I made yesterday with the intent of noting several potholes (using exact Lat/Long) only to find that it wasn't possible.

For now, I'll just update business information/location for areas I pass through; there's quite a lot to do in regards to my area alone.

Simply enough, because its creator is based in Europe. It's not an official tool, although it may have some official support.

I'd love to see it here, but I don't expect to.

I wouldn't mind adding things personally though, construction zones and potholes and such. It'd be a lot nicer to alert someone of construction ahead when there's construction ahead instead of using any of this (CONST ZN) stuff.
