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 ..…

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…

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.

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 …

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 -
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 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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Flock sells these to home owners association's and other private entities besides law enforcement.…

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.
