It would be safer and better to be able to opt out of the points notifications or modify when you receive the points for down time in a trip, rather than receiving them in the thick of driving. They are distracting. It is dangerous to have something so unimportant distract you from the focused task of driving in the same way as emergency alerts and traffic notifications.

Personalisation of which notifications to receive how and when is critical to ensuring user safety in Waze.
