+10000 for this suggestion.
For everyone saying driving fast is dangerous and wont get home safely, do some research first.

I agree and think the alert distance should be customizable; police alerts could be set to 1/4 mile - 3 miles before police location. And please allow me to turn off hazard warnings and keep police warnings on!

And to all you commenters saying "don't speed", "we want to get home safe too, blah blah blah": don't forget, this app gained most of its popularity for the feature of police reporting. I speed on every highway I travel; without police reports I wouldn't even use the app. So get off your high horses, stay in the right lane and let the non-zombie drivers drive. I save dozens of hours of time spent in the car every year because I speed; just because you can't drive safely at 70mph in a 55, doesn't mean I can't.

Police speed traps often stay for 30 minutes to one hour, but it disappears form waze after 15 or 30 minutes. This is hazardous to other wazers, so please increase the amount of time a warning lasts for to two hours. It can be cancelled earlier given enough (perhaps 5 or 10) not there votes.

Leave Confirm/Deny (Yes/No) buttons on screen longer (Increase Countdown time) -
Because of the disparity of user entries adding alerts, the exact location of an alert is vague. Often times when I see an alert, the countdown to when I can confirm or deny goes away before the actual alert is there. There have been times I press Deny, only to see the alert around a corner or over a hill, a few tenths of a mile up the road. My suggestion is to leave those buttons on for 1/4 mile or so past the supposed alert to give more validity to the confirmations or denials.

The way I see it, the alert is there so that people know there may be an officer on the side of the road, and to keep alert in order to avoid a wreck.

Nobody owes you data on speed traps. Caveat emptor, driver.

janet .. stay out the left lane and worry about your speed thanks ... we all will get home safely

If your worried about getting a speeding ticket, SLOW down. Your not the only one on the road. We all want to get home safely to our families.

Make it where you can add warnings to remote spots within a certain distance you drove pass.Currently, It only allows the spots you drove pass, which half the time its late to pinpoint where the pothole, car stop, or object is located on the road. I think it should be like the map editor, where you get distance as you rank. 5 stars when this happens.

It needs to tell you that there's a accident about 10 miles out so you can get off a exit and go around

it's not 600 feet it's a half mile.

While hwy driving you only have exits spaced miles apart. The traffic jam warning comes to late to find an alternate route or to allow time to change lanes to exit the hwy before you are caught in the traffic.

By the time the Waze warning pops up, you are already stuck in the traffic.

Increase the distance or time warning.

In fact, many times there is no warning, especially if there are multiple reports in succession, only one will be reported, which requires the user to be distracted yet again by touching the symbol in order to give it a thumbs up, etc.

Should also be based on speed - more distance warning at 65mph vs 25mph

I would like this programmable as well.

la distance autour des radars et notamment apres est beaucoup trop longues

This should not be an "enhancement". It should have been a software requirement. I sat in traffic for 2 hours last month because the "accident" warning occurred WAY too late.

Lets try driving using our own eyes first

לאחרונה שונו מרחקי ההתרעות לפני פניה ומצאתי עצמי לא פעם באי ודאות למקום הפניה.
להלן הצעתי לשינוי מרחקי התרעה.
קילומטר לפני - מספיק רחוק להתכונן ומספיק קרוב לא לשכוח
חמש מאות מטר לפני - מתאים למיקום שילוט הצומת
מאתיים מטר לפני - מתאים למקום פתיחת נתיב הפניה
חמישים מטר לפני - ממש לפני הפניה

I agree, increase cop alert range and allow more user customization. For example, be able to turn off vehicle on side of the road alerts. Also, when reporting cops, be able to report cops who already have someone pulled over versus cops running a speed trap.

Saw a recent video where someone ran over a pallet in the road... 1 second after hitting the pallet you can hear waze alert about the road hazard...
