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!

It is very important to add bumps on the road to warn the driver of the vehicle in sufficient time

In South Africa in rural areas speed humps are nearly all unmarked, unpainted not sign posted and vicious. I have used Waze for 4 years and love the app!!! but PLEASE allow users to put in speed humps. I have asked once before and will appeal once again ...make your app even better!!!!

These are a HUGE problem in many countries. Central America, the Caribbean and especially Mexico. In Mexico there are speed bumps introduced by the government (which are poorly marked if at all) and also individuals also create their own speed bumps, many times to slow you down to see their roadside vendor stand, attraction etc. These are NEVER marked. I have Lunar Launched the family on a number of occasions. These can be on roads of 60KM/hr and higher.
It is a dangerous situation and I think that this might be one thing that will stand WAZE apart from other navigational apps.
