Posted speed trap alert
Many streets have built-in speed traps. You know -- the speed is 40 mph, and is a sensible speed for that road, but then for no reason it drops to 25 mph for a half-mile (and there's no school, residences, sharp turns, etc in the road). These are all about revenue generation for the local municipality, and not about road safety.
I would like to be able to report a posted speed trap on the map (and the map should be able to identify many candidates for potential posted speed traps), and then after Waze through some TBD process determines that it's an obvious revenue-generation change in the speed limit, the app would give riders the option of either an alert when approaching one, or the ability to set a preference to always route around posted-limit speed traps, even if it adds a little extra time to the drive.

Sadly, the entire city of Fountain Hills Arizona fits into this category.
