What we have observed with Waze
What we have observed with Waze…
1) Different Icon for a Mobile Speed Trap Trailer and Speed Trap Van would be less confusing.
2) Reports don’t expire until a number of Wazers select “No Longer There”.
3) Apparently the authorities who operate the the Speed Trap Vans can select “No Longer There” so if the “No Longer There” can only be selected on the move (passing by) that would make it more difficult to do.
4) When a Speed Trap etc has been reported that the map shows a small circle forever to show that a Speed Trap has used the site.
We have also observed that for unknown reasons not all Wazers report. You can see them on the map but the Speed Trap we know is there does not appear so if there was a way trusted Wazers could post a Speed Trap observed on another site without actually having to go there.

Apparently 3) is a myth but only a response from Waze can confirm or deny this.
