Speed bump database
Good morning, I work at Uberaba City Hall, Minas Gerais, Brazil and I would like to know if Waze can make the speed bump location database available, either in .kmz or .shp format. We would like to have this data to control and better monitor these elements. Furthermore, I would like to know if there is a way to enter the location of these speed bumps into the application, as I noticed that not all of them were identified. Thanks

Enhanced Visual Warning for Speed and Red-Light Cameras
I would like to propose an additional visual alert system for speed and red-light cameras within Waze. The idea is to introduce a transparent red overlay that flashes on the screen as drivers approach a camera location.
This feature would serve as a strong visual cue, especially for users who may not always be actively looking at their GPS display or listening to audio directions. The flashing overlay would draw immediate attention and help ensure drivers are more aware of upcoming enforcement zones.
To keep the experience user-friendly and adaptable, I recommend that this alert be offered as an…

Show speed limit ahead (e.g. 300 meters ahead) for economic driving
In order to allow economic driving one should be informed that a changing speed limit will come up long enough to be able to save fuel and save the environment. When there is a hint that you have to lower speed like 300 meters in advance you can just stop pushing gas, so car will just sail.

Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign.
Please let us have the option to show ONLY the speed limit sign when using with an Android Auto car or stereo unit. Currently, it shows both or only the speedometer with the speed limit sign too small to see easily. When I first start up and I'm parked on a street that has a speed limit, the sign is nice and big. Once moving though, the speedometer shows up and the limit sign shrinks down to where it's hard to see.

Max speed trip estimate
I drive an road e-bike, which has a max speed of 32kmh due to legal restrictions in Ontario. It would be great if we could specify a max vehicle speed and Waze could take that into account when estimating how long it will take to arrive at a destination.

CarPlay speed not padded
The current speed, when connected to Apple CarPlay takes the speed from the vehicle and pads it by approx 11%.
Please either show gps speed or car speed provided by vehicle. Padding not required.

Make the Alert Button and Speed Display floating
English: Make the Alert Button and Speed Display floating, so the driver can position them on the screen in order to be more visible regardless of the position of the cell phone on the panel.
Portugues: Fazer o Botão de Alerta e o Mostrador de velocidade flutuantes, assim o motorista pode posiciona-los na tela de forma a ser mais visivel independente da posição do telefone celular no painel.

drive the speed limit alerts when cutting through a neighborhood
Waze sends lots of drivers through my neighborhood when traffic is bad. Most drive over the speed limit and will even pass others who are driving the speed limit. Because you have demonstrated that you do not care about my neighborhood, except as a cut-through, please add a voice alert that will sound when people are using waze to cut through neighborhoods reminding people to drive the speed limit.

speed improving
Hello!
We use the product https://www.waze.com and we like it, but noticed,
the site slows down due to maps and scripts. (link and skrin are added). There are large libraries that greatly slow down page loading (https://embed.waze.com/livemap/assets/vendor-f90e3789d81b39390076.js) Tell me, please, are you planning to improve the project in terms of download speed?
Let me tell about our good practice with speed up the site. After changing the image format from .png to .webp, the download speed increased. Perhabs, you can use that on you project.Best regards, Sergey Gook, CEO Evakyator.by

Conditional speed zone
Where I am, and I'm sure many others, there are school and park zones that have different speeds for certain hours. It would be nice to have the ability to have speed zones that change according to the times.

Route Calculation - Max Speed Limit & Time Calculation
Allow the user to select either current speed or current speed, not to exceed posted speed limit when calculating the time to drive a given route. I have driven 5 to 10 MPH over the posted limit just as a test, which matched the Waze time. However, when I just drive the posted limit, the time if always off by at least 5 to 10 minutes.

Accurate speed
When using Apple Car Play, my speed is continuously 12+mph over what I am actually doing. I can use the app on my phone just fine it’s accurate within + or - 2mph. I am confused as to why my truck displays such a difference. Brand new truck, brand new iPhone. All updates to apps and devices as required.
