Adding a maximum speed for adapting maximal speed roads
Hi,
In Belgium and the Netherlands (and probably other countries too) we have adapting maximal speed signs on the highroads (and on soms other roads too). In case of trafficjams or accidents they lower the maximum speed on that road so you don’t get extra accidents and jamms (other people that go faster and slower on the highway etc).
It would be handy to have a button on the ‘report screen’ to set a new (temporary) maximum speed for that segment while you are in your car so that other people can see it, your maximum speed is properly indicated…

Carplay speed limit
Hello, in the UK version of Waze on Apple Car Play, the speed limit is hidden by the direction box. Can you please put the speed limit on the top left of the screen and not on the right (as there is the direction box already).
7 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Improved reporting of wrong speed limits
When reporting a wrong speed limit, for suggestable speed limits the current speed fractionable by 5 above and below should be available as selection. Driving at proper speed that would easily allow to report the correct speed.

speed limits
It should be interresting to add the speed limit on the map, every user could add the limit through his trip.

Lower speed threshold setting
All of the speed threshold settings are for at or above the speed limit. By the time the alert goes off I am already breaking the speed limit. It would be nice to set a threshold like 3 or 5 mph below the speed limit to prevent ever going over.

Improve speed control zones approaching alerts
Colombian wazers have been facing problems due to speeding fines, sadly in most of the cases is not about Waze alerts, but is the poor signaling on the Colombian roads and autoways. Given this, is it possible for you guys to deploy a kind of beep when driver is approaching a radar/speed camera detection zone, let’s say 300m before the location of the camera have a beeping which is increasing frecuency the more you approach the camera/radar location? This could help drivers reduce speed and avoid fines due to the lack of standardized signaling in Colombian roads.…

speed cameras
The alert about speed cameras warns about cameras that are positioned on the same direction the car drives, which is counterproductive.It should warn about cameras that are placed on the opposite direction, because these cameras are the ones that are relevant , they take the picture.

Speed trap
When speed trap notification pops up. Tachometer becomes hidden behind the directions element. That makes it impossible to read current speed and also max speed limit. Maybe the possible cause is scaled system UI. I think the speed trap notification could popup small in the corner.

Upcoming Speed limit
It would be great if Waze could give a(n optional) warning if a speed limit comes up (similar to construction area warning). This enables the driver to lower the speed before - instead of brake down the speed when the limited zone begins.
This would be very helpful especially on German motorways, which haven’t a general limit and where you have to brake hard e.g. before construction areas.28 votes -
When you driving on a average speed zone
When you driving on a average speed zone than your left green panel what is showing the distance from average speed zone should show the speed too and the panel should change to red if the speed is more than the allowed average speed Also it should check the speed between one camera to the second one and not just from the first and last camera

speed camera popup
The speed camera warning popup obscures the lane guidance when used in Android Auto. Lane guidance is more important than the speed warning, especially when getting close to highway exits or when the upcoming turn is close to the speed camera. Please reduce the speed camera pop up or move it elsewhere!

Combination Red Light & Speed Camera
In my area there are now red light cameras that are also speed cameras. Why is this relevant? Because if the light is STALE (green for a long period and may be turning yellow/red soon at some point) I and other drivers who are aware that the light may be turning red may speed up to avoid the possibility of a receiving a red light ticket. (Because you can’t just stop for a stale green light) If you are aware the redlight camera also tickets for speed it would be a helpful reminder to keep your speed in check while…

Ability to change the default tone for camera alerts
Can we have the ability to change the default tone for red light (or all) camera alerts.
The red light camera tone is a beep and the speed camera tone is an audible loud verbal warning.
It would be really helpful if the user could change the beep to the audible warning because the beep is very easily missed, whereas the audible "speed camera" really grabs your attention.

Re-Organize Speed Trap Buttons
When editing the map a lot of stationary speed traps are reported but not approved. They are reported on positions where mobile speed traps (Police notifications) are / would be. As a user who only uses the client I would first go to speed trap and report it instead of reporting a police hazard. The result is, that this trap is not reported unless it is approved. Another button in the speed trap menu would help, for instance "mobile speed trap" with a time stamp. The same button can be shown in the police menu for the users who are…

speed / progress estimation
In areas where there is no GPS available, expecially in tunnels, what about a speed / progress estimation? This could be based on:
1) let's say.. 80%-90% of speed before entering a tunnel
2) if other wazers drove through that tunnel shortly before, you should know when they entered and left the tunel and so approximate the speed in the tunnel.This would have several advantages:
1) no "jumping" on map, no "jumping" in ETA (as now you stand at the beginning of the tunnel and then jump to the end)
2) when there is something to report in the…15 votesGreat news! Simulating the navigation while driving in a tunnel is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Tweeks on your max speed alerts
Two comments on your speed limit alert. 1st, the sound alert is barely audible and not continous while still speeding. 2nd, when I slowed down after exeeding the speed limit, then I speed up again, I get no audio alert that I exeeded the speed limit again. 3rd, maybe you can add an option as to when I will get notified of speeding. Like maybe before I reach a percentage of the max speed I can get notified already. Thanks and more power to you guys.

Variable speed
Show the slower speed for variable speed zones.
In Melbourne Australia there are many variable speed zones where the slower speed is set for a longer period. Eg. 40km between 7am and midnight. That should be the speed set for that area as that is the speed for the majority of the day, not the higher speed.3 votes
