audio alerts for everything
It would be nice to have audio alerts for all activity in waze. If there is a traffic jam ahead alert me vocally, same for car on shoulder etc.
I say this because I ride a motorcycle and am not able to view my screen (also it would take my attention from the bike). I would like to be audibly alerted of everything such as speed cams, cops, blah blah :)

Have a loud or high pitch noise before a notification (an option, of course). When I use Waze while riding my motorcycle, I very often need to check the screen because I will not hear any notification even with my phone speaker set to maximum. Having a high pitch noise before a notification would make me watch the screen only when needed and concentrate on the road.

I would like to receive an audio alert of traffic up ahead. Not just on on the map.

I use Waze with my bike with the phone in pocket. I would like to have every alert be explained. instead of a bip i would like a "speed limit 55" for ex. so i hear a bip and get an explanation.... some bikers put the phone on the bike and can see the screen. some like me only use the audio part..

As proposed by other systems, it would be very useful to have options allowing to have more vocal information:
- Allowed speed
- Repetition of speed overruns
- Announcement of street names / route numbers / ... when changing direction in navigation mode
At the GUI:
- Greater text of the indications (speeds, directions, ...)These developments would make Waze much more convenient to ride a motorcycle.

An audio warning about slower traffic up ahead (like a mile or two before) would be great especially on freeways where a slowdown can cause you to quickly brake from 70mph to 15mph (just for example). This would be great for someone who does not see the traffic jam alerts or only uses Waze for audio alerts/navigation.

I wish I had more votes to give for this features.. Waze needs to send some love to the motorcyclists.
