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.

Can we get a known speed trap alert
Some areas are just known for speed traps. Maybe some kind of algorithm that logs how many drivers ping certain areas for speed traps for a period of time before its considered a "Known speed trap". This alert can be optional in carplay etc.

insufisant speed limit notification
Hello and Happy New Year to all.
It remains for me 2 major gaps for waze and one interesting improvement.
- The sound alert only when over speeding is insuffisant and already cost me 1pt on my licence when I accelerate to overtake. ..
You can not look at the screen constantly we must keep an eye on the road. Then configurable audible signal for danger zones is therefore indispensable.
- The speed is not displayed or set as she is known by the apk.For the improvement is to advertise only hazards on the road on which flows…

A camera in a public transport lane
In Israel there are lanes designated only for public transportation, but a vehicle with 3+ or 2+ passengers is allowed to travel in the lane according to the signage.
They recently installed cameras that automatically count the number of passengers in the vehicle, and I did not find an option to notify the location of this camera.
Please add the option to notify you of the location of the camera to inform the other passengers.
Thanks for everything and have a nice day.2 votes -
Speed alerts relevant to the vehicle driven
Hi could you make it possible to have a option to choose a van as a vehicle option? By selecting the vehicle as a car when driving a van makes the speed limit alerts incorrect. Thanks

Background version of waze to voice alert on speed cameras when routing suggestions is not needed
In most of the cases you know the driving route and you don't need waze for suggesting routes. but it's very helpfull to get voice alert on speed cameras on the way.
I suggest to take that feature in waze and make it a standallone version that runs in the background (without the need to open it, or to display path, progress etc' which is battery consuming).5 votesYou can turn Waze to Alerts Only mode and keep app in the background – audio notifications about upcoming alerts will be provided.

Speed Limit Correction | Help Improve Waze – Allow Speed Limit Feedback Again
I believe it would be very helpful to bring back the feature that allowed users to suggest corrections to the speed limit shown in the app. This function used to be available, and I would often use it to report inaccurate speed limits on certain roads. However, it was removed a few years ago, and there is currently no easy way to suggest corrections directly through the app.
Restoring this feature would greatly improve the accuracy of navigation and benefit all users by keeping speed limit data up to date. Please consider reintroducing this option within the app.
Thank you!

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!

I can no longer report a speed limit issue
I used to be able to tap the speed limit icon and it would allow me to report errors in the speed limit. Now, it doesn't. This has happened since 6/30/17 I believe or within a few days thereof.

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 example7 votes -
It would be nice to have a map on the client that shows the colorful streets according to the average speed obtained thanks to all the GPS
It would be nice to have a map on the client that shows the colorful streets according to the average speed of road segments obtained thanks to all the GPS as the live map on the website: yellow above 45 km / h, marron between 45 and 20 km / h, white below 25 km / h, so as to also choose myself the way and everyway understand what type of road is at a glance!
maybe you could also make sure that the streets are set automatically (only minor, the primary and streets) coloring itself according to Vmedia ..…

Reduced Speed Limit
New feature of showing speed limit is almost useless in the United Kingdom because it only shows:
- Where speed changes from 70 to 40, 30 or 20
- Where speed changes from 60 to 30 or 20
- Where speed changes from 50 to 20.UK Goverment Guidance of 2024 gives instructions on transitional limits, where a short length of 40mph or 50mph is used between a national limit and another length on which a lower limit is in force, with 600m or more if possible (with allowances for 400m and 300m in some critera)
This means any newer …

Suggestion: Option to set alert distance for events on the route Currently, alerts for speed cameras, police, and speed bumps are shown too
Suggestion: Option to set alert distance for events on the route
Currently, alerts for speed cameras, police, and speed bumps are shown too close to the actual point. I would like to suggest that Waze allow users to configure the distance in advance for these alerts (for example: 500m, 1km, 2km).
Benefits:
More reaction time and safer speed adjustment.
Prevents sudden braking right on top of the radar or obstacle.
Improves user experience, especially on highways and fast roads.
This customization would be very useful for drivers, particularly on long-distance routes.
