"Known for having speed traps"
There are some places, at least in Portugal, that are known for having speed traps occasionally, and, given there's no warning for those speed traps, it would be useful for newcomers

Add voice notification when there is a mobile police camera in the opposite lane
I use Waze almost every day. I recently received a ticket and noticed that when there is a mobile police camera marked in the opposite lane (even on a two-way road), Waze does not send me a voice notification or warn me about it. Mobile police cameras measure speed in both directions. Can you make the app send a notification even if there is a mobile police camera marked in the opposite lane?

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.
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.

Speed bumps alert option
I suggest to adding the "speed bump" alert inform option, too. Today we can't inform it. There's just the voice alert, but not the option to inform one.

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.

Tap the speed circle to switch miles to km
I'm traveling between Canada and the US, and I believe tapping the speed circle to switch miles to km we'll improve the user experience

Speed limit update or entrance
I know there were problems with people submitting to many cases of speed limits. Such as 50 mph areas. I think it would be a great idea to bring it back but only for 70-75 mph areas! There's a lot of times I'm on the road and expect Waze to have the speed limit and miss the sign and have no idea.. I think this would be a great improvement for the users and there shouldn't be a ton of incidents to check out like used to!

Reduce speed ahead alert
Would be nice to have pop-up similar to railway crossings showing reduce speed ahead. Example would be driving on 70 km per hr route that changes to 50 km per hr.

This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being, since we’re focuing on features which would potentially benefit larger groups of Wazers.

Customize Speed Limit Alert
Can you have a separate speed limit alert for highway vs regular streets or roads? For example maybe i am ok with 10 over on streets and 20 over on highways

Speed signs on WME
a) I usually place comments (in the form of points) next to the track at the exact spot where there is a maximum speed sign, indicating the content of the sign (example: 80km/h). This helps me remember potential speed change points. It would be useful to have a layer that activates a visible icon on the WME map to display these signs, without needing to open the comment box.

b) It would be wonderful if Waze used A.I. to scan Google Street View and capture all relevant traffic signs, marking them on the map for verification and subsequent handling…

Is there a feature that can be built into the Waze app that will alert you to an upcoming speed change

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.

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.

Seperate speed limit warning for each vehicle type
Hi Waze team,
I have used Waze while driving motorcycle. But in my opinion, it would be good if we can separate the speed limit for each vehicle type because the speed limit may be different with cars on some roads. Maybe it's a good development route for supporting another type of vehicle like truck for example9 votes -
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

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.
