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.

During navigation my Bluetooth earphone don't receive autovelox alarms thus you must continuously look display and this is a not safe driving. It is normal?
Again, and specially in winter, I would like very much ground temperature on the screen. Please, study this feature.
Thank you -

Alert the user when the speed exceeds the limit by miles/kilometers per hour.
Where I'm at, we get speed tickets for exceeding the speed limit by MPH, not a percentage.

Criar a opção para SEMPRE AVISAR SOBRE RADARES PRÓXIMOS, os mesmos só são avisados quando se está no limite... assim quando se está viajando (defasagem de posição) ou quando se acelera de forma rápida dentro dos 500 metros já era! Deveria Haver esta opção nas configurações para sempre avisar independente da velocidade.

Please add a sound 1/2mile or 1/2km away from speed trap. Also sometimes users in a rush to add an alert do it for the wrong side of the road. Alerts should be made for both directions

Unfortunately drivers have to always be vigilant of those who speed and cut through traffic. Wazers should be able to alert other wazers that a crazy driver is coming up behind them and be on the lookout. If 2 wazers clarify the same location of a speeder they can then receive points.

quando avisar sobre radar, tanto o de velocidade quanto o de semáforo deveria avisar por voz e também com aviso sonoro. hoje somente um deles avisa.

o aviso de radar antigo era mais eficiente do que o novo aviso , e deveria apenas ter sido atualizado.
O novo aviso nao aparece a imagem da camera , e passa despercebido pelo motorista -

Como nos GPS convencionais , deveriam criar alertas com vozes informando o limite é o tipo de radar, seria muito bom.

Include audible alert for Highway Patrol, Police Stations, etc
Would be helpful knowing police might be in the area, and if you have an emergency, it would be nice to know where the closest station might be. -

when hazards are close, or you approach an intersection with a camera, there are no Audio warnings. even stock audio messages grouped by hazard or warning type would suffice

Hello
I live in Belgium and I would like to be informed approach radar audibly to the presence of a radar even if I do not exceed the speed limit.
I Waze 4.6 has the current version available via Playstore.
I tried many tips given on the internet to enable sound alerts without results.
My dernieressai was conducted via the site "http://www99.zippyshare.com/v/VOlWKPF0/file.html" with the downloaded file "WazeAUV5b_3_9_8_0"I also tested iCoyote that does not satisfy me for this function.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Best regards. -

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.

Currently, Waze only warns for police speed traps when I am driving above the current speed limit.
The problem with this is that the speed limit Waze think applies can be wrong. For example, in the Netherlands, the hard shoulder is opened during rush hours to allow for more traffic ("spitsstroken"). However, the maximum speed is then reduced.
Also, a number of roads have variable speed limits, where you have different limits applying depending on whether it is day or night.If a speed trap is active, Waze will not warn me because it thinks I am driving under the speed limit.
Please add an option to ALWAYS warn for speed traps, regardless of the current speed of the vehicle.

Audio speed camera warning all the time not only if your over speed limit to easy to miss and not safe to keep looking at phone

Hi, as motorcycle rider, I have a couple ideas I want you consider. First, a speed alarm, could be set by user configuration or by street speed limits. And a sound alarm or voice could warn to speed down.

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.
Thanks -

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
