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.

Custom alerts for speed cameras
This is a biggie. You have the same voice speaking street names.. and then in the same quiet, relaxed voice (with your stereo and kids in the background to contend with..) telling you that you are 0.2 miles from a 'speed trap' (more on that next..)
Personally, on my Garmin device I had sound clips from TOP GUN scenes where Maverick is getting LOCKED ON by a missile... as a LOUD notification of getting near to a speed camera... and I had 'different' recordings for the different types of camera... average speed, GATSO etc. -

Couldn't agree more..!! PLEASE add a distinctive alert for speed cameras prior to running into them.. and also... give us the option to toggle that alert on/off at our discretion.

Its a very good idea

Today, the sound alert for radar start 580m before and JUST if you are faster then limit of speed. My suggest is the user set the distance before and if the sound should beep independent of speed. If you up the speed over the limit after the start point (580 mts before the radar), there isn't a sound/ beep, and you can take a fault. Ex. If the street speed limit is 50km/h, and 580mts before your speed is 40, there is NO beep. But, if you up the speed for 55km/h before the radar, there is NO sound yet. My suggest is if you up the speed the alert sound beep or if there is a radar,the alert sound beeps independ of the speed, as a user configuration option

For speed traps you have disabled the audio interface. That is big reason not to use waze. Navigon can do that.

Please add configurable sound for alerts

Uma sugestão para o Waze em relação à multas de transito acima da velocidade, principalmente no Brasil. O Wase poderia implementar o controle de limite de velocidade com alerta sonoro sempre que o velocimetro ultrapassar uma velocidade parametrizada, ou até avaliar a possibilidade de fazer uma leitura do limite de velocidade das vias de transito, e sempre que o velocimetro alcancar essa velocidade, se o parametro estiver ativo, acionaria um alerta sonoro.

Seria muito bom se tivesse uma opção que sempre notificasse (com som) ao se aproximar de um radar e não só quando está em velocidade excessiva.

It would be great if it had an option to always notify (with sound) when approaching a radar and not only when at excessive speed.

Que les radars de feux sonnent qu'elle que soit la vitesse . Longue route a waze

The alerts in Waze are way too discrete!! If I don't hear the alerts , I prefer to keep Coyote...

The mayor introduced several radars with speed limit at only 40km/h. Consequently, the error margin is only 4km/h and unfortunately, for a such slow movement, the waze has not a sufficient precision and are not able to identify on time that the speed are slightly above the limit or not. Even if the measured speed is accurate, if the waze does not alert with a sound, it is highly possible that the speed changes 4km/h by any slight feet movement. Thus, considering the several changes of speed limit imposwd in our city, which confuse the driver, it is fair that at least we have a tool to be advised about a radar and the new speed limit for that location. I do hope Waze implement this suggestion as soon as possible. Otherwise, we are discussing in paralel forums to support alternative tools from other providers.

Sugero que o alerta do radar seja com voz independente da velocidade

pouvoir attribuer un bruit de son choix aux alertes serait un plus.
La fenêtre des radars serait mieux si elle clignotait en rouge. Elle serait plus visible. -

Pergunto por que, mesmo o radar semafórico aparecendona tela, às vezes ele não é alertado por voz ?

Incluir um alerta sonoro para quando fosse ultrapassado o limite da via ....
