Obscured vehicle speed
When driving in an average speed trap zone, the vehicle speed is partially obscured by the average speed trap indicator.
ALSO.. when approaching a speed camera while in the zone a banner pops up TOTALLY obscuring the vehicle speed until the camera proximity is passed.
This is a NEW FAULT affecting only average speed zones since a recent update when a banner issue obscuring speed indicator for all speed cameras was resolved
Please resolve this frustrating issue.
Vehicle speed is obscured JUST when you need it most. Thank you !4 votes -
Reports Ahead
The Reports Ahed list is now filled with reports of Speed Camera Ahead, making it almost impossible to see the actually important information (traffic, lane blocked, etc.). I have turned OFF ALL of the camera selections and the list is stilll filled with USELESS information.

Some bugs encountered with the application
I use Waze very frequently for my work. Both as a GPS and as an assistant for road hazards.
I've noticed a few anomalies in Android Auto.When I approach a speed camera, Waze informs me about it and the distance. As soon as I have passed the zone, the "Speed camera" indication remains on the screen and Waze does not provide any other information.
I have taken some pictures of the problem encountered. If you want them, let me know where I should send them.Thank you.

Enforcement trailer
Germany and parts of Europe experience a whole new kind of speed cameras since a year or so, the so-called "enforcement trailers".
Since two months these are used on the german Autobahn on a regular basis.
The trailers are moved from place to place and stay there for up to two weeks. The places are used recurrent, e.g. there are 40 places in North Rhine Westfalia and 10 trailers, every place get's a trailer once in a while.Marking them as mobile speed camera is useless, since they always disappear because of the low waze usage in germany.

Waze should have Patch Notes for every update. Let Users know what has changed with each new version (dropped support, improved support etc)
Patch Notes, like those implemented in every online game in the past two decades, would drastically reduce User issue-reporting (with the app) due to misunderstanding of which Waze features are supported, which are not, which features have lost support and where etc.
Just every time the User updates the app, upon next sign-in, just flash a dialogue box with the latest patch notes (perhaps a link).
As an aside: the Help Center could be more clear and specific about how certain features (e.g., speed camera alerts) work. The exact parameters for getting audible speed camera alerts are not known and…

Need to add a camera that detects motorcycle riders without helmet
There are AI cameras that are issuing tickets for not wearing a helmet. This should be shown and more promptly when in motorcycle mode.

Danger Zone
Cameras are placed in known danger zones.
Usually the danger is within 100m either side of the camera.
Sometimes it is not allowed to plot cameras.
But a general warning - danger zone in 200m - would be useful.3 votes -
Please add all New York City School Zone Camera Units to the WAZE maps for the purpose of reducing violations there are over 2,000 in numbr
Please take note by this suggestion that I have incurred many School Zone Speeding tickets since the DeBlasio administration installed over 2,000 camera units throughout New York City, if WAZE provided functionality by visual icon, sound alert or any means informing drivers of the many School Zone Speed Cameras requesting drivers to reduce their speed to 25 mph then this would give rise to a great service and would remediate many violations as well perhaps save incidents of pedestrian accidents. Thank you WAZE.

Alerts Stuck
When starting a new trip, the first alert that appears (speed camera, traffic light camera, railway crossing, etc.) remains fixed on the screen, and after going through this alert, the alert is not deleted, it does not refresh, it does not report a new alert. The first alert that appears stays permanently... it only goes away when starting a new trip... where the first new alert that appears is stuck again.

When you exceed speed limit and there is radar in front of you, there should be more warning.
Warning should be like "camera or police reported ahead, your speed is above limits.

Urgent hint to improve waze fast and easy and get many new users!
How? Speed camera alert (warning) is one of the best and attractive reasons to use waze especially for new users, that have already integrated or portable navigation systems. Mobile (!) Speed traps (cameras, but also radar guns etc.) are the traps, users have the most fear of. But most existing users of waze, who wants to report a mobile (!) speed trap mix up the confusing camera icon with the police (officer) icon, especially in the german version, where the camera icon is named "Blitzer" (means: "flash"). They report mobile speed traps (in german also named as blitzer;…
