How to Report Incidents and Road Hazards

You can help keep other drivers informed by submitting real-time reports directly through the MapQuest app during navigation.

Note: The incident reporting feature is only available while actively navigating a route.

How to Submit a Report

  1. Open Report Menu: While following turn-by-turn navigation, tap the Report icon (a yellow hazard triangle with a plus sign △+) located on the right side of the screen.

     

  2. Select Category: On the "What do you see?" screen, choose the category that best describes the issue:

    • Traffic

    • Closure

    • Police

    • Hazard

    • Crash

    • Other

       

  3. Specify Details: Each category will present specific sub-options related to your request type so you can provide more precise details.

     

  4. Send Alert: Once you have selected the specific incident type, tap the green Send button to submit your report and alert fellow drivers along the route.
