Yes please, many valleys can easily be over a half-mile wide, and you can get LIDARed easily from that range. Give us time to slow down, please.

If you put so much attention in avoiding a ticket, why can't we get more attention that could save a life. Please add the Slow Down and Move Over!!!

I get Police alerts generally at the Half Mile range (2600 feet) just like I do for all other alerts.

simplify and speed up input AND give realistic range of hazard location descriptions. On "Identify Hazard Location" page put a touch-selectable graphic to choose (right to left): far right edge (weeds), right shoulder (gravel), right edge of road (painted line), right lane, middle lane, left lane, left edge of road, left shoulder, far left edge, median. Don't tell me "vehicle on shoulder" and have me watching the RIGHT shoulder only to HIT some guy parked almost on the median...

It would be nice if there was a distance marker, like the concentric circles on radars in movies, that shows how far away an icon is. When I'm driving on the highway in the middle of nowhere, there's nothing that lets me judge the distance to an alert. I can't tell if the icon is a mile away or 5 miles away. Concentric circles around the car every 1/4 mile, for example, would fix this.

When will this be available?

Waze needs to enact this suggestion immediately.

Les distances d’alertes sont beaucoup trop courtes ! Il faut avertir des obstacles au moins 3 km en avance pour ce qui est des autoroutes. S’inspirer des distance d’alerte du coyote par exemple. Merci.

I most certainly agree!! Longer range required.

I agree. This setting should have a default, allow it to be user defined, and give the user the ability to set a variable tracking feature related to the speed at which s/he is travelling. Excellent suggestion.

At night we're usually tired and not always aware of the road conditions such as traffic lights.
Therefore I might be surprised by a traffic light and react too late if it turns red.
A vocal warning could help by warning me that a 100m, for example, there is a traffic light so that I can slow down a little and not be surprised if it turns out red.
Not relevant at all in cities, but helpful whenever there are none or few of them, making me readier for them.

I could choose the number of warnings, only 1 to make it less annoying, and also the distance before its location (100m, 200m...)
Default of course is "OFF"

In risk management severity goes along with probability: the severity of missing a red traffic light should trumps the low probability.
This feature can save lives.

At freeway speeds, some alerts come too late to be of use. This is especially a problem for those of us who can not monitor the map screen and rely solely on audio prompts

Sugiro disponibilizar ajuste na distância padrão de alertas como buracos, acidentes, carros parados etc de 500m para definido pelo usuário, ou se possível reduzir essa distância padrão caso a velocidade média seja mais baixa, pois 500m é muita distância em velocidades baixas e quando chegamos no local já não temos mais atenção para o problema.

Try just following the laws of the road and you won't have to worry about this.

For the love of God, YES!!

This is probably because of their lawsuit

This needs to have a default setting and a user defined setting then everyone is happy. Also noticed that some fixed camera locations are not reported by the alerting function (only user reported).

Rather than *just* alert me .3 of a mile away, why not tell me "miles to next speed camera" - so I might know "on the current route, I've 10 miles to the next (known) speed camera - helpful!
