Time dependent Speed Limits
We really need the ability to add time dependent Speed Limits for school zones or other times of the day where the maximum speed limit changes, this would not only help with navigation slow downs (which most school zones wouldn't affect too much anyway) but would also increase safety for drivers and pedestrians in the area.
If we were able to set speed limits during specific times of the day it would mean a popup warning for a changed speed would mean users would be aware and slow down and hopefully prevent accidents from occurring in this speed sensitive zones.
Please vote up if you agree, so we can get this added to the Waze map editor!!!
Hey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Where speed limits are time sensitive for more than a couple of hours, that should be the speed shown on Waze not the higher speed as the default.

Any chance of adding in USA region-specific speeding alerts?
15mph over is usually fine, but in VA anything over 80 is reckless/aggressive driving so I end up changing notification settings based on what state I’m driving in.

In school zones, or on military bases, or sometimes just during mornings, in several countries, speed limits are reduced during certain times of day. Not that this applies to everyone, but on military bases there are also certain roads that go one way a certain time of day, and then the rest of the day, go the other way. Can we add this to waze?

Time sensitive adjustments are critical. Displaying the incorrect speed limit by 20km/h is ridiculous. That’s instant loss of license¿

This would help with roadworks as well

Quite common in urban cities in Australia to have time-dependent speed limits, but when we can only define one we get URs from people driving at the other time.

I fully support this idea to protect our children. What a great community support idea

There are so many URs about SL either overnight (if we map the daytime SL) or during the day if we map the higher SL
Suggest this would be great help to users of app if could have simple 2 period time based SL -

This is critical.

This is really important specially for long stretches on Autobahn.

This continues to be a much sort after requirement - at least 30% of URs for Speed limit inaccuracies have to do with segments (imo in Victoria) that have say a peak and off peak speed limit - school zones are very similar but built up shopping centre/strips here in Australia often change SL to 40 when outside of core hours it resorts to 60.

We have Timebased Speed Limits on the Highways in Germany. so it would Help to have a more accurate navigation.

In Hamburg gibt es viele Zeitbegrentes tempolimit zum Beispiel 30 km/h zwischen 6 Uhr und 22 uhr. Wäre gut wenn es angezeigt sein würde, so Gerät man waniger in mobile blitzer.

I think this feature should be quite easy to build since the current time of driving is already known. You only have to adjust that if it’s between 6am and 7pm the maximum speed is 100km/h. Please add this feature to the app!

2017, wow clearly school safety isnt a priority. How about just introducing POI optional school zones with visual and audible warnings. Then speed limit is somewhat addressed. Most contemporary gps has this now.

Having grown up in a region where school zones are active from 6 am to 6 pm, and now live where school zones are active for two hours for school opening and closing times, people who are not familiar with the times for the school zones, I strongly believe in the need for this.
