Australian School Zones (40kmh) Alert
In Australia we have School Zones around all schools to ensure the safety of children around schools. In the majority of the Australian states this is a set period of Monday to Friday 8:00am to 9:30am and 2:30pm to 4:00pm. It would be great to create an alert of some sort, during these times and turn off the alert outside these times. Thank You

Verbal Speed Camera Alerts should be on constantly or make a button
In the UK, people loved Waze, simply due to its Verbal Alerting behaviour for everything. But a few months ago, speed camera verbal alerts were turned off if you're under the speed limit.
Not only is this dangerous but it could cause speeding tickets. Let me explain with this is problematic:
1) firstly, the main priority should be to get out eyes off the screens and on the road. It's self explanatory, if I'm constantly having to look fir the speed camera sign on the app and my eyes are off the road then this is a disaster waiting to…

Earlier notification of mobile and static speed cameras
Current speed camera alerts occur too late and usually when the camera can be seen which by then is too late. Earlier warning along with the speed limit would be a great enhancement to the app.

Speed Limit Alerts for Commercial Vehicles
In the UK speed limits for public light goods (commercial) vehicles are different, so for example on national speed-limit A-roads, cars are allowed to do 60mph, but commercial vehicles like panel vans, can only do 50mph. It’s to do with the increased payloads they potentially carry.
This differential isn’t catered for in the app, so when it’s set to alert when the speed limit is reached, a van driver in many cases is actually 10mph over which is enough of a margin to receive an endorsement in the UK.
The speed differences for light goods vehicles are however standardised: they…

Police Alerts
A police report should notify drivers when driving within a certain radius of the report and not just for drivers that are traveling in the direction of the report. This would be very beneficial on highways and eliminate the need to report police twice for both sides.
To make this make sense, if you’re traveling southbound on a two-lane road and you make a police report, it will only alert the southbound traffic, not the northbound.

Common Police Locations
Police aren't always marked, they may have just moved, but police locations tend to be rather consistent at least in my experience. Waze, I assume, has the data tracked for every instance of report and knows the location of all police reported events so why not do something with this data to help drivers. Create a potential police location report. This is something that drivers don't place but is a backend development from the Waze team. Take the police report data and create a new icon, the police icon but in a different color, to represent a typical police location.…

Good morning! I don't see a "school zone" warning option on app. Is there one and I don't see it? Or can this be added?

Bouncing an alert on the "prayer of the road" at the city of the city.
I am a Jewish religious person, I really want the notification of the road prayer from exiting town to town, this is very desirable and technologically easy, it is recommended to get more details about the user as a question. Checking whether he is religious and whether he would like to be notified about the way prayer. According to the current tests I did, tens of thousands of people were interested in it, in addition I work as a senior programmer and I am ready to come and take part of this project.
A plugin of this type can give…8 votes -
Lengthening alert time before left/right turns
When approaching a right or left turn, the application many times doesn't give enough time to respond.
I assume this might be partly because of inaccuracies in the car location, but I think the basic problem is not recognizing it takes time to move from lane to lane, especially in crowded roads.
In my opinion you should lengthen the time for the final alert to at least 6-8 seconds before the turn.
I must emphasize that this time should be the time of the end of the alert, and not the beginning of it!8 votes -
Bring back Deer sightings on or near road. Simply , road hazard is insufficient to warn drivers.
Being back deer on side of road or in road is much better than just saying road hazard . A simply road hazard does NOT give drivers proper heads up to avoid killing the animals and possibly themselves

Customized alert distances
Since the recent release of changing the alert to 0.2 miles, makes police alerts a worthless feature because at highway speeds, at that distance, it's already too late. In fact, anything over 25mph would be too late at that point. How about a setting that allows the user to set that distance in the range 0.2 to 1 mile to make it more practical or just revert to the 0.5-mile default that was present before the latest release!

Speed Bump & Speed Camera
I was travelling by road in Oman and noticed many of the Speed Bumps & Speed Camera locations are not correct.
Maybe it's not updated. Is there an option for the user to update the speed bump & speed camera location.7 votes -
Potholes are problems on the roads. But long stretches of pothole-ridden sections are also an issue.
Potholes are problems on the roads. But there is something even more annoying, which is larger sections of the road that are completely holed or damaged. The suggestion is to create a new type of alert that is more lasting. Something saying "Damaged section ahead." Perhaps many countries do not suffer from this, but here in Brazil, whether in small towns or capitals, this is extremely common.
