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.

Absolutely, this was always the default behaviour and should not have been changed makes no sense!

Exactly! Same situation here (Brazil/Rio Grande do Sul).
I heard this justification (on waze forum) for not change that:
"Enabling it to trigger every single time even if you drive slower that the limit would cause a flood of complaints from people who don't want "annoying sounds" if they are not speeding. This likely not going to change."
Well, a simple way do solve that, keep the default behavior, but add some switch to turn it off when needed, Brazils users sure will be thankfull.

Announce all "speed traps" with sound and not, as currently some via sound some via visual alert on the phone

Totally agree! Waze notifies radar sometimes, mainly when we are driving in highways, but it doesn't notify when we are driving downtown. I would like to be able to configure alerts. At least give us the most important, police and radar alert sound.

i think its better if the sound is played whatever direction your going, in the UK they have cameras that can point either way, better to be safe that sorry !

O aviso sonoro para radares é essencial principalmente a noite visto que não podemos dirigir olhando constantemente para o aplicativo.Esta função não é proibida visto que para os gps tradicionais são permitidos. Ajudaria muito.

Speed camera alerts should always alert me when i am approaching not just when i am speeding, because what if i am at or below speed limit but decide to speed up when i am unknowingly close to a speed camera

Minha sugestão seria ter alerta sonoro ao ultrapassarmos a velocidade da pista, ou um alerta visual mais visível. Obrigado!

Tinha que ser igual ao igo amigo, você programa o alerta por voz, por exemplo: de 0 a 80 km/h ele avisa a 200 metros acima de 80 km/h ele avisa a 500 metros de distância do radar no mapa.

Is it possible to build in a sound signal when approaching a speed camera or when you drive too hard, instead of an optical signal?

As the laser radar can fine the two kilometers from where the equipment is, the waze should alert users through notices / audio notifications, with at least two kilometers in advance. Otherwise, the alert being near the radar, will not help. For Brazilian User.

Sometimes it fails to alert by sound. Also it's too silent. Will be nice to custom your own sound and loudness.

Incluir no aplicativo a opção de aviso sonoro dos radares fixos ao longo da via no sentido de trafego. Muitos radares na estrada não estão sendo indicados no mapa através de aviso sonoro, fazendo com que os motoristas passem acima do limite de velocidade nestes radares.

I completely agree with this request, there should be an option what users can define if they want to be alerted regardless of the speed they are driving, above or below the traffic cam limit.

Ola. Eu gostaria que tivesse alerta de voz independente da velocidade ao nos aproximarmos de radares.obrigado.

Avisar sobre os radares mesmo estando na velocidade permitida, sempre avisar em voz.
Tornar o app mais leve mantendo a operacionalidade e conectado na Internet brasileira móvel, que é ruim.
O Waze atualizar todo o percurso e mapa pre definido na conexão wi-fi, antes da utilização da internet móvel no deslocamento.
No futuro a comunicação semelhante de rádio para operadores wase na rodovia, ou apenas por conexão wi-fi.

would love to have a feature in here that alerts you when speeding e.g. if doing 60klm in a 50 zone a voice says (speeding)

You, sir, deserve a cookie. That's my biggest concern that makes me keep looking at the screen.

Hi People, Good day!
I would be very happy if the maximum speed alert was a sonorous alert.
My suggestion would be that we could turn on or off this audible alert on your application settings, because we are not always looking to the device screen.
Thank by attention
