It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier.
It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier - maybe even by alert type so that constriuction alerts could be set at 20 miles - and police alerts at 1.

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!

Please make alert distance adjustable. 300 meters is not far enough for hidden cop traps as your already within their kill zone.

Bring back 1 mile notification for cops!!! 0.3 miles is too close. Especially on straight roads. Their radar gun can reach that far. Also people are sometimes late marking them making it even less than 0.3 miles before actual warning on screen.

I need more time to confirm or "not there" hazards, police, etc. Why not 30 sec? There have been a few times when I pressed "not there" only to find that the hazard was just a little further down the road.

When the "not there" option pops up for hazards and police it often disappears before I arrive to where it should be so you aren't able to click 'not there' by the time you reach the mark. It should remain on the screen longer or be a clickable option when you open the hazard or police reporting.

An option to choose when an Speed Cams (Radar) Report should appear, at "X" distance. This is very usefull and I don't know why it doesn't let us to chose at "x" distance from the Speed Cam we should be warned. Really 300Meters from the Speed Cam its so far. Let us decide them.

I noticed that while it displays the distance to the road hazard or Police presence in feet (in USA), the real distance are much farther, approximately 3 times farther. That makes me think that numbers are in meters, though shown as feet.

I would like it if there were a way to adjust how far ahead the app alerts you of road conditions such as accidents, police, traffic, etc. some people hit the button far beyond the incident

Similar to how the zoom is variable based upon speed, I would like to see the notification distance for hazards/slow downs/etc. be variable. The faster you are traveling, the further ahead the app would notify you.
When traveling at, say 35 MPH, 600 feet is probably adequate for most alerts. When traveling at 65-70 MPH, you will fly by the hazard before Waze can get the alert spoken.

Yes I agree this would be good. I feel like I have too short a time to look for the object/item and then respond before it disappears from the screen.

Leave the Not here and thumbs up longer. I sometimes click one or the other only to see the car on the side of the road a few feet further o
