Buss lane camera UK
Dear Waze Team,
I’m a regular user of Waze and truly appreciate how it helps make driving easier and safer. I’d like to suggest adding a new feature to the app: bus lane camera alerts, especially in cities like London where these cameras are widespread.
Many drivers are fined for accidentally entering bus lanes without realizing it, and an alert system could prevent such mistakes, just like the existing speed camera notifications. This would be incredibly helpful for users unfamiliar with specific areas or road layouts.

Improved reporting of wrong speed limits
When reporting a wrong speed limit, for suggestable speed limits the current speed fractionable by 5 above and below should be available as selection. Driving at proper speed that would easily allow to report the correct speed.

Optimal Speed Suggestion
If there's a big traffic jam at a point 2/3 of the way to my destination, it may not help me get there on time if I drive at full speed or over the speed limit up to the point of the jam. Waze could set my suggested driving speed lower for a more even pace over the course of the trip. In some cases, a lower driving speed may help me conserve fuel (and thereby create a smaller carbon footprint) and if many drivers use this we may see safer roads as fewer people speed around rushing to get…

Max speed!
For me, there's only one simple addition that would make Waze the perfect GPS. The ability to enter the max allowed speed for the vehicle. For truck-drivers, caravan-drivers e.g. you're not allowed to reach the max speed on motorways e.g., so you'll manually have to calculate the additional time to your destination. TomTomGO has this. Make it happen! :)

Speed Trap notifications
I'd like to see permanent or semi-permanent notifications for known speed traps. I'd also like to post about said traps so others don't get caught but can't figure out how to drop a notification remotely

Camera/Police/Hazard WAS reported here - time frame after removal of issue
Have currently noticed that reports of police/cameras are being removed by the police and/or camera operators, as soon/soon after the intial wazer report is logged.
It would be great to see a feature that shows where cameras/police/hazards were reported, but have since been marked as no longer present. When a report is marked as no longer present, it shows up for [say] 2 hours after that 'speed camera was reported ahead'. If issue is still there (ie camera is still present, but was removed by the operator) users can re-enable the report - but NOT remove…

Lower speed threshold setting
All of the speed threshold settings are for at or above the speed limit. By the time the alert goes off I am already breaking the speed limit. It would be nice to set a threshold like 3 or 5 mph below the speed limit to prevent ever going over.

Use road posted speed limits plus user speeds for in route algorythim
This will help find a better route based on posted speed. Also if we could calculate average speed of wayze users in a route area to help adjust for traffic. as in this road has a posting of 50 MPH but average user speed is 25 this equals bad traffic and should re-route to a road that is 35MP with little to no traffic. to set aside from others who do this allow a setting to limite the number of in route routing adjustments. Some may become overwhelmed with to many re-directions on the fly.
The direct route is…

Radar alert with visual speed information
I suggest inserting the speed information into the radar notification. The notification now only reports that there is a radar a few meters ahead, not to mention speed. The radar speeds are all set up in the Waze maps, being information that can be easily extracted. The feature would certainly help many users, even eliminating the use of applications that perform this function. I also recommend that in settings there be options to "always be notified", "be notified only when above speed" or "never be notified." Allowing the user to decide on notifications.

camera overlay
Instead of using a digital map overlay route on live camera input. or make combination of digital map with live camera input
1 voteThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

multiple reoccuring beep option when speed limit threshold is exceeded.
Being able to set a reoccuring beep (instead of just one beep) when the speed threshhold is exceed is very necessary. This way speed cameras can be avoided and one is reminded what the speed limit is. Also, it is necessary to be able to add temporary speed limits into the trip line. These may or may not be permanent, but important just the same due to temporary speed cameras.

New Speed cameras Lisbon
There are new speed cameras in Lisbon, 40 until end 2021. It would be helpful if you could advise the locations so we could get used to it before they are active. Now in tests already. Those are now generation radars and can get speed in both ways.

Camera Reports
Please make a choice and add for more options of report camera such as phone/seatbelt cameras. I only have & see police and mobile camera. Also when automatically shown camera ahead, put option for "still there - not there or removed" since some of them removed or moved another location. And how i confirm my reports still in map or just wated from nothing and not shown in map if i cross again? Some of my report i didn't see it when i was driving again in same road.. why and how it's work?

Tweeks on your max speed alerts
Two comments on your speed limit alert. 1st, the sound alert is barely audible and not continous while still speeding. 2nd, when I slowed down after exeeding the speed limit, then I speed up again, I get no audio alert that I exeeded the speed limit again. 3rd, maybe you can add an option as to when I will get notified of speeding. Like maybe before I reach a percentage of the max speed I can get notified already. Thanks and more power to you guys.

Camera alerts issue
There is an issue with camera alerts: on waze map, if the camera icon is near the road but it is not located on the road, the app does’t notifies you when you are driving.

Easy speed limit update request
When the speed limit is incorrectly set, a user request should be easy to generate: push the speed dial, UR screen is displayed with the common speed signs of the respective country.
Tapping the sign & send would post a UR with the right information.
Easy for the driver, easy for the editor, good for accurateness of the map!13 votes -
Enlarge posted speed and actual speed.
I love WAZE and use it everyday. However, the graphics in Garmin are far superior. Please try to improve the graphics. Also, please enlarge the posted speed and actual speed at the screen upper right b at least 1/3.

Temporary speed limits
Option to report reduced speed limits due to road works (construction).
Option would be for reduced speed ahead. Would be useful to know of upcoming congestion
