Speed Bumps

I will suggest the inclusion of speed reducers commonly used in Brazil, called "lombadas" or "quebra-molas" (speed bumps). These elements are rarely well signposted.
Are a ridge set in a road surface, for purposes to make drivers to reduce speed.

    It'd be very useful to be able to both map speed bumps and to be able to select to avoid speed bumps in the app. I used to drive a BMW with a lowered, stiffened suspension & speed bumps knocked a hole in my exhaust muffler. It's less of a problem with my current car but still - I'd sooner drive on a road where I can maintain a fairly constant 30mph than on one where I have to brake & accelerate every 100 metres or so. It's better for my car & better for the environment. Speed bumps are there to discourage drivers from driving down that road unless they have to & to make sure they go slow. I'm amazed we don't yet have this functionality.

    I'd love to see Speed Bumps listed on the map somehow along with a checkbox to "Avoid Speed Bumps" just like we can Avoid Toll Roads or Avoid Gravel Roads. Or to at lest have them give a routing penalty to the segment so Waze would route you around it since that's why they're there in the first place.

    How long do "Hazards" last? Couldn't you mark the speedbumps as a "Hazard" indefinitely? I know you can add map-comments through the Waze Map Editor, but I'm unsure of how these comments appear on the actual map on the app.

    It is and will be so useful to be able to see and mark speed bumps on the road with Waze.

    I actually thought that features was going to be present already for now.

    There should just be an option to turn it on snd show it on the map, and to be able to report speed bumps on the map.

    Please consider it.

    We have the same problem in the Middle East. They are not painted or signposted and are the same colour as the road. Please add this feature so they can be permanently shown like cameras. At the moment I am just marking them as potholes so I know where they are!

    I think the suggestion to solve havy trafice is more important as bumper. Plz add item to suggest to police. The police officers will analys it in Iran. Thanks.
