Enable audio alert for speed cams regardless of the speed.
Waze currently only triggers audio alerts about speed cams when the driver is above the speed limit of the specific cam.
Since the speed detection on Waze is very flawed (at least here in Brazil/Rio de Janeiro), and not all cams have their speed limit properly set, it would be MUCH better if Waze triggered it's audible alert for speed cams independently of the fact that the driver may be above or below the limit of the cam.
Thank you.
And keep up the good work!
Great news! The audio alert for speed camera regardless of the speed is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

They should allow us to change alerts behavior, some people are annoyed by the constant speed trap alerts specially inside cities. However, the majority would like to receive speed trap alerts even while not exceeding the speed limit.

The fact that there is no speed camera alert at any speed is a disgrace! I am sticking with my cyclops app for now at least!

Since Waze application presents the driving speed + the allowed speed, I suggest to add a buzzer capability that will be activated in case the driving speed exceeds the allowed speed.
Such vocal alert will assist the driver in being aware that the driving speed is illegal. This way Waze will contribute not only to safety but will let the driver be careful and avoid speed reports.
I suggest to add another feature to the above capability: to let the driver set 2 buzzers – the first one if the driving speed exceeds the allowed speed by up to 5%, and a second buzzer if driving
speed exceeds the allowed speed by over 5%. (5% should be settable by the user via Waze configuration menu).Please advise if you like it, and if your development team will make it become real.

This is a great idea we think waze is excellent and were drawn to it because of the suggetion that it alerted you to up and comming speed cameras. But to have just an on screen message that a speed camera is near catches me out as I'm not looking at the screen so a voice alert would be great.

Would be good if ALL red light cameras would trigger an alert, as currently only some do for whatever reason!

Recently, the warning (audible) for speed cameras was disabled when you're under the limit of the road. Unfortunately, it's quite possible to get faster in between. The warning on the screen remains, but it's not enough in my opinion.

Add the option to set specific sounds from the phone's notification sound files for specific alerts. e.g. set a specific notification sound for the over speed limit alert

I was suprisd to find this is not configurable. If I have the music up loud (not even loud) it is too easy to miss the speed and cameral alerts

Funkcja powiadamiania o przekroczeniu dozwolonej prędkości w formie odczytanego tekstu w rodzaju "jedziesz za szybko, zwolnij" lub "przekroczyłeś prędkość" ...Był to bardzo czytelny komunikat. Ciche piknięcie nie załatwia sprawy, bo często pozostaje niezauważone (stałe patrzenie na ekran bardzo rozprasza). Gdyby tak mieć możliwość zamiany owego piknięcia (opcja) na komunikat głosowy w menu samego programu lub choćby dograć własny komunikat na tę okoliczność.
Auto translation:
Text override warning function, such as "you drive too fast, slow down" or "you have exceeded speed" ... This was a very clear message. Silent picking does not do the job, because it often goes unnoticed (constant looking at the screen is very distracting). If so, you can change this option (optional) to a voice prompt in the menu of the program itself, or even make a personal message for that circumstance. -

Para os avisos de radares e avisos de limites de velocidades, emitir SONS DIFERENTES. Com opções de escolhas do som.
Esta facilidade permite ao motorista tomar ações, sem ter que desviar o olhar para o GPS (celular). -

Es una aplicacion excelente pero se podría implementar avisos de voz para los radares, así como lo hacen para las cámaras y para los controles de policía. Un saludo.

All the time play critical sound (nor at once like now), if driver increase speed more than set in setups – 10, 20 … km. Critical sound let be Geiger counter sound on radiation overdose.

Hi, in Colombia is just a sound alert, not voice alert. When we can have this feature here? Thank you.

O que está faltando no Waze é somente avisar com sinal sonoro aproximação de radar independente da velocidade.
