Max speed prediction
When navigating and in areas where max speed data is available, show next max speed change.
Eg. max speed: 90 km/h > in 200 metres: 50 km/h10 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Speed Limit Announcer
Waze should have the option of Current Speed Limit Announcer, everytime when the speed changes, or if your on the road, and the speedometer pops up for example, “35” in a 35 mph road, or “60” in a 60 mph road
Waze on your phone and/or CarPlay should speak “The speed limit is “35 mph” or “The speed limit is 60 mph”
It is a lot better than looking at your radio just to see the speed limit is posted to prevent a crash

Speed trap
Speed trap notification should ALWAYS sound. If you are not over the speed limit, you risk accelerating before the trap and getting a fine.
Other alerts sound at any circumstance. At least, give the option to activate always on notificatios for speed traps.14 votes -

Time dependent Speed Limits
We really need the ability to add time dependent Speed Limits for school zones or other times of the day where the maximum speed limit changes, this would not only help with navigation slow downs (which most school zones wouldn't affect too much anyway) but would also increase safety for drivers and pedestrians in the area.
If we were able to set speed limits during specific times of the day it would mean a popup warning for a changed speed would mean users would be aware and slow down and hopefully prevent accidents from occurring in this speed sensitive zones.

322 votesHey,
Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.
We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.
Thanks!

Known Speed Traps
Would like that we have “known speed traps” integrated into the map section. For example if me and 100 other wazers pass a certain location everyday and we ping it as a speed trap the data should be collected until the app knows this is a speed trap and should become a known speed trap on the map. I think the same should be done with tag readers cops are known to read tags in certain areas by sitting in the median, ramps etc

Average Speed / ANPR Camera Reporting
As well as normal Gatso type speed cameras, increasingly automatic number plate recognition / average speed cameras are used in the uk. Being able to report them & their speed limit, and having a notification that you're within the average limit would be priceless.

Speed traps notifications
Early notifications about speed traps inform you whenever you are in the area of the speed trap.
But now, if you are entering the speed trap area at the allowed speed, they don’t inform you about it, even if you are entered at the allowed speed, but increase your speed in this area.8 votes -
Speed camera notifications
Hi
First of all thanks for the service.
As a constant waze user I think one major upgrade would to be able to get speed camera notifications even if you are not speeding. This would help as sometimes the smart motorways sometimes are at a lower speed on digital sign than the current speed limits. Thanks again.Kind regards

Speed limit on Android Auto
Thanks for finally making Waze available on Android Auto but you left out the speed limit and it is one of my favorite features. It's especially helpful in rural areas where speed limit signs are few and far between and it makes it easy for law enforcement to set up speed traps.
43 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Alert about speed cameras even when not speeding.
Currently, with speed camera alerts enabled, the alert only activates when speeding while approaching a speed camera. An option to display the alert regardless of current speed would be beneficial.

Adding a maximum speed for adapting maximal speed roads
Hi,
In Belgium and the Netherlands (and probably other countries too) we have adapting maximal speed signs on the highroads (and on soms other roads too). In case of trafficjams or accidents they lower the maximum speed on that road so you don’t get extra accidents and jamms (other people that go faster and slower on the highway etc).
It would be handy to have a button on the ‘report screen’ to set a new (temporary) maximum speed for that segment while you are in your car so that other people can see it, your maximum speed is properly indicated…

Average speed camera in IRAN
Hello waze
Recently in IRAN roads, many average speed traps are installed.
As you kbow these cameras catch not only the momentum speed but also catch the average speed between 2 cameras and in the whole road.
As you know they use SPECS (SPEed Check Services) system that use number plate recognition to measure the time taken between two fixed points to monitor a driver's average speed.
We, your greatfull application users in IRAN,
ask for activating average speed alarm in map and also in editor erea so the editors can edit and adjust it.Keep drive safely…
20 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already takes license plate restrictions into account, in many parts of the world. To enable this feature, add your license plate details under Settings > Car details > License plate.

Change option speed limit /speed penalty
in europe I travel through many countries. Each country has different speed penalts. it would be good to have a chance change the speed limit to the value of the penalty, for example, if my speed is 150, it's not terribly. but when my speed value is 400 € for a penalty then I better slow down.it is good for Young people . they have no sense and no money. and it's best for safety. at maximum speed an alert is displayed ,,, withdrawal of driving license

Speed bump notification
Please can you make speed bumps in a different category so it can be turned off without removing the rest of the hazards. Living in London means I get a speed bump notification every 5 seconds and it’s very distracting when driving. Thanks, Josh

Upcoming Speed limit
It would be great if Waze could give a(n optional) warning if a speed limit comes up (similar to construction area warning). This enables the driver to lower the speed before - instead of brake down the speed when the limited zone begins.
This would be very helpful especially on German motorways, which haven’t a general limit and where you have to brake hard e.g. before construction areas.25 votes -
Report speed limit when reporting speed trap ahead
Just a before a speed trap, most drivers have no idea what the speed limit is. Thinking they need to avoid a fine they slow down rapidly causing a mini traffic jam and a lot of danger. If you can report the speed limit, most drivers would maintain speed and traffic will go smoother. This happens mostly in Israel highway 2.

Speed Camera Reports throughout an Average Speed Check Zone
When I’m alerted that i’m in an average speed check zone, I tend to get notified every 20-30 seconds of a camera as part of that zone. It gets repetitive and quite annoying as I know that I need to remain within that speed limit until i’m notified that I have left the average speed check zone. It’s just a suggestion but would it make more sense if speed camera alerts were removed whilst in an average speed check zone?
