Dear Waze Team,

We are writing to you on behalf of the community of volunteer map editors and Waze app users in the Czech Republic. We would like to propose a new feature that, in our opinion, would significantly refine and clarify the display of average speed camera zones on the map.

Currently, we lack an effective way to visually mark the precise start and end points of an average speed zone on the map. We therefore propose two possible solutions:

1. A New Icon with No Sound Alert: We propose the introduction of a new, non-audible icon that editors could place at the beginning and end of a measured section.

Visual Design: The icon could visually resemble the existing speed camera icon, or be only slightly modified, to maintain visual consistency.
Key Feature: The most crucial aspect is that this icon would not generate any sound or voice alert. Its function would be purely informational, similar to the existing "fake speed camera" (placeholder) icon.

1. Automatic Zone Display on the Map: An alternative, or complementary, solution would be the automatic visual highlighting of the start and end of the section directly on the app's map. As a driver approaches an average speed zone, the app would, in addition to the standard warning, display distinct points or lines on the map indicating exactly where the measurement begins and ends.

Important Clarification:
We want to emphasize that this proposal does not in any way affect the existing voice and visual warnings for the average speed zones themselves. We wish for these primary alerts to be fully retained in their current, functional form. Our goal is solely to supplement this feature with a precise and silent visual delineation of the zone.

We believe that implementing one of the proposed options would provide drivers with valuable and clear information, improve the accuracy of the map data, and enhance the overall user experience of the Waze app.

Thank you in advance for considering our suggestion.

Sincerely,

Tomas-CZ
