Speed alerts ,audio speed changes,school zones
I use Waze to help give me audio alert when I go over the speed limit. Only thing is that it only alerts you one time and if you go over the speed limit again it will not alert you. I would find it very beneficial but it alerts you every time you go over the speed limit.
I would also would like to have school zones added and alerted. And possibly have speed limit decrease to 20 mph when school zones are active with audio alerts.
I live in a very small town and is known to have speed traps. We have at least 7 speed cameras and several speed changes. That go from 55 to 35 to 25 in a short amount of distance apart.
An audio alert to hear the speed changes change while you are driving, I know for myself Will help tremendously and alerts to known speed traps towns.

It appears that Waze is configured so that the audible speeding alert is only played the first time you exceed the speed limit within a particular speed zone. If you subsequently reduce your speed and then exceed the limit again while remaining in the same speed zone, Waze always provides a visual warning but does not repeat the audible alert. The audible alert is reset only when the vehicle enters a new speed zone with a different speed limit.
In my view, the audio alert must repeat whenever the speed threshold is exceeded, rather than only the first time within each speed zone. This would provide more effective driver awareness and help reduce the risk of unintentionally exceeding the speed limit. Both the speed limit icon and the speeding warning icon should be significantly larger to improve visibility while driving. In addition, the audible alert should be louder (if possible).
