Speed bumps / humps
In Mexico, there are to many speed bumps and humps (Topes) but not traffic signs on the road and streets. This has provoked many accidents and damages to the cars, in some cases some deaths. Please let us know where there are with a warning. It's really urgent

Allow negative speed offset (reduce the speed warning threshold)
It It would be really helpful if Waze allowed us to adjust the speed offset in both directions — not only to add km/h, but also to subtract.
In my case, my car’s speedometer consistently shows 5 km/h faster than the real speed shown in Waze/GPS. I tested this many times and it’s always the same difference.
Because of this, I’d like to set the speed alert to something like:
✅ “Warn me when I’m less than 5 km/h below the speed limit”
(or essentially: allow a -5 km/h offset)Right now, Waze only allows adding extra km/h above…

Speed trap takes up too much screen space
On iOS (and maybe other phones), the speed trap notifications take up over 1/4 of the screen. When driving through London where there's hundreds of speed traps, the notification often hides the next turning (particularly annoying when the roads in London are so close together)!
I know it's possible to turn off speed trap notifications, but can you reduce the size of this screen so I can still see the turnings?

Location of the Speed Limit and Speed on Android Auto
For Australian users, I would like to see the Speed Limit and Speedometer shown on the left of the map. This is because it is covered by our left hand when holding the steering wheel, because the driver sits on the right hand side of the vehicle. I cannot see either the speed limit or speedometer without moving my hand off the wheel.

Make a difference between a solo police speed radar control and traject control.
When you enter a traject speed control zone, it would be great to have a time bar in the display, just the way it is shown during traffic jam. Off course for traject speed contole zone, it should be in a other color

Display car speed//speed limit option in Waze
My wish: to be able to choose, as an option, EITHER the display of my speed (which my car already gives me) along with an alert when I’ve exceeded the speed limit (which basically means it’s already too late!); OR the display of the current speed limit on the route. That would be truly useful information, because while driving you often lose track of which zone you’re in—50? 70? 80? 90? One quick glance at Waze and the info would be right there, clearly visible.

Custom Speed Alert threshold
I wish there was a way to set my speed alert at seven or eight or nine mph over the limit not just 5 or 10

Add routes that *avoid* red light and speed cameras similar to routes that avoid tolls.
Similar to routes that avoid tolls there should be routes that avoid speed cameras and red light cameras.

Speed Bump Permanent Hazard Notifications Persistence
The notifications for speed bump style permanent hazards should not stay on screen, once the driver has already driven past it. It does not add any meaningful information to the drive and only acts as a distraction or blocks part of the screen.

continuous speed limit alerts
Waze currently only alerts you once if you are speeding. Suggesting an option to allow to keep alerting every X number of min or seconds.

Allow to add speed cameras directly in the map editor and/or change their type (speed/light)
Currently you cannot add a speed camera without reporting it on the spot with your app and then go approve it in the map editor.. This slows down the process if you are in the editor and see a camera is missing and don't want to drive there to add it.
Changing the type of existing ones could help correct mistakes when people report a wrong type of camera.7 votes -
Police Cameras/Speed Van Cameras - 500 Meter Warning not sufficent
Police Cameras/Speed Van Cameras - we need more than a 500 Meter warning for these. It’s too late to react if you are on a motorway, in particular.

The road speed is too small, the speed I am going is less important as you can see this already in your vehicle,
Please swap the vehicle speed as that’s bigger & less important with the road speed
I have to keep swapping to google maps to check road speed as Waze too small

Eliminate police speed check reporting in residential neighborhoods
Allow POAs, HOAs, and other residential communities to provide WAZE with information to create a geofence around the community that can restrict POLICE reporting. All other features could remain in place.
Our community is loaded with children and the money we spend on speed patrols is wasted through the ability to notify other speeders, through Waze, as to the whereabouts of the speed traps within neighborhoods! There is a major difference between speeding in residential neighborhoods vs highways and city streets. Think about how this could save children. Exclude residential neighborhoods.

Speed Cameras in Cities
Would be amazing to get warnings about where speed cameras are located, specifically in San Francisco and other California cities where they have recently added speed cameras within the city. Thanks! Waze 4 life

Speed Limit indicators on map
It would add to safer driving to have speed limit changes show up as standard indicators on the map while driving, meaning seeing them approach just like any other indicator on the map.
Current issues/reasons:
1. In South Africa we have many areas where the speed limit road signs are missing. I count four that are missing on my daily route alone, and this is extremely dangerous with frequent sudden braking necessary immediately after realizing the speed limit has changed without prior notice.
2. There are often speed cameras directly after a speed limit change, which is a nice little…2 votes
