Abbility to report start & end of SPECS.
SPECS cameras operate as sets of two or more cameras installed along a fixed route that can be from 200 metres (660 feet) to 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) in length.[3] They work by using an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system to record a vehicle's front number plate at each fixed camera site. As the distance is known between these sites, the average speed can be calculated by dividing this by the time taken to travel between two points.[4] The cameras use infrared photography, allowing them to operate both day and night.

speed limit manual
can we have a manual speed limit? I often use a big trailer who is limit to 90km/h on highway versus 130km/h for the cars. so my arrived hour is always very wrong and my route isn't optimized at all.

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 -
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 -
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.

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.

Flock camera system license plate reader locations
Allow users to map locations of police automatic license plate readers and select routes that avoids them.
The Flock automatic license plate readers are now in over 2500 cities in the United States and track 1 billion vehicles per month per their website. They are able to detect the color of your car, wether or not part of your plate is obscured, if the registered owner has a valid drivers license, is a gang member, known drug smuggler, has an active warrant and other such information. Flock sells these to home owners association's and other private entities besides law enforcement.…

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.

Speed limit and gps speed widgets
Would be very helpful to be able to increase the size of the widgets and select where the display them. I only have a 7 inch screen and cannot see them. Widgets should be on driver's side not passenger side.

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!

Add "unlimited speed limit" sign for Germany
In Germany, 70% of the highways have to actual speed limit. This is currently idicated by no speed limit sign at all. However, this might also mean that the speed limit is unknown.
Instead, the "unlimited" speed sign could be used that is used in Germany to indicate that no speed limit applies anymore (link to an image: https://www.bussgeldkatalog.org/wp-content/uploads/282.png) This is sign 282.This could be easily accomplished by either adding a checkbox to the editor to set that no speed limit applies, but this might requite some engineering.
An easier solution would be to only update the app…3 votes -
Using the smartphone's front camera for alert about driver's tiredness
In Android there is a feature named "smart stay" which allows the smartphone to recognize, using the front camera, if the user is watching the screen (in order to turn off the screen when not in use) - see
http://www.androidcentral.com/how-use-smart-stay-galaxy-s3I wonder whether it would be possible to create a similar function in Waze, that would recognize (by visually recognizing when the eyes close for longer than a fraction of second) and alert if the driver falls asleep. If this is possible (even partially), it can save lives.

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

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 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…
