Bridge height warnings and no suggested U-Turns would be a start.

Man those are actually some good ideas. Sometimes I'm pulling a trailer and hate when Waze tells me to just pull a u-turn on like a two-lane road (one going either direction). Would be nice to have a simple checkbox that disallows them.

Okay, but I would think you'd rather find out a route is impassable for you before you're already at the part you can't go any further.

Narrow Road warning, high double park areas, high traffic areas, slopes, tight turns (think hair pin), etc

For me it wouldn’t try to get me to use carpool. Edit: it looks like it’s not pushing it like it used to, if it’s even still there.
