Increase police warning distance
Waze users are warned of speed traps or police presence only about 600 feet ahead of time. This is far too late of a warning. With a clear line of sight, law enforcement can detect speeders at 1-2 miles out.
By the time the Waze warning pops up, you could have already been detected.
This feature – while very well intentioned and thought out – is useless with so little warning.
What we are aiming to do here is speed based alerters.

Keep more time (in Brazil) the potholes harzard on road. Because in Brazil the potholes are difficult to been repared and i need to keep sending the alerts every single day. It will be easer and safer for wazer in my country if the alerts been keep for a week. That´s it!

There should be more Alert options.
* Be able to choose different sound-alerts for speedcams and for when you go over the limit you set for the speedlimit.
* Be able to choose distance for alerts before speedcams.
* Be able to set how loud the alerts shall sound.
This is a great app, thank you for a very good work :-) -

I agree It definitely needs to be sooner

Adjust advance notice on the next exit in relation to distance and speed. After driving a lot on the highway, I have received a notification so late that I missed the exit when driving at a relatively high speed.

Explicando. Normalmente, quando se está dirigindo e se depara com um evento (buraco, veiculo quebrado, acidente, polícia visível entre outros), é comum demorar-se a concluir o envio da informação, pela dificuldade em dirigir e ao mesmo tempo enviar o aviso. É meio complicado e requer certa destreza ao volante. O resultado disso é que, ao concluir o envio, o aplicativo vai registrar o local do evento em alguns metros (ou quilômetros) a mais do local exato em que realmente está acontecendo o evento, redundando em informação inexata do local do sinistro aos outros condutores. Minha sugestão é que os desenvolvedores criem uma opção de envio da informação com 100 metros, 200 metros e 300 metros ou mais de atraso, para que, quando o aplicativo finalizar o envio do sinistro a informação seja fixada no local mais preciso possível, otimização as informações.

Get rid of vehicle on side of road alerts. Extremely annoying and useless

Police alerts need to be earlier. Getting an alert right as you reach them does not provide much value. Perhaps 1/2 mile ahead.

This is in line with comments I have read in other places. The ability to set the "Events Radius" with both on "On route only" and a distance would be perfect.

When the yellow bar comes up it tells me what the hazard is and how far away, but the buttons to thank the person and dismiss it cover the words describing the hazard type. If you put the hazard on top and the distance to it underneath, then the buttons wouldn't block the writing. I think it's a simple change that would make the app look better.

The old version of Waze gave more distance warning for police radar locations.

Good! Give them all tickets!

This is exactly what I think is needed. I would also like to be able set preferences for highway/interstate travel vs in town distance preferences. For example on a highway or interstate you need to be alerted of an accident an average of 10 miles ahead to make a change of course, but in city driving you may only need 1/2 mile.

It would be better to have an alert area instead of along a segment. Often on a freeway the troopers are running in both directions. and if you are going in the opposite direction of the report you will not get an alert. Police should be reported as a zone not a point.
