Average speed camera in IRAN
Hello waze
Recently in IRAN roads, many average speed traps are installed.
As you kbow these cameras catch not only the momentum speed but also catch the average speed between 2 cameras and in the whole road.
As you know they use SPECS (SPEed Check Services) system that use number plate recognition to measure the time taken between two fixed points to monitor a driver's average speed.
We, your greatfull application users in IRAN,
ask for activating average speed alarm in map and also in editor erea so the editors can edit and adjust it.Keep drive safely…
20 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already takes license plate restrictions into account, in many parts of the world. To enable this feature, add your license plate details under Settings > Car details > License plate.

I would like the app to display speed limits as I drive.
I would like the map navigation to display the speed limit as I drive.
Warning sounds if I exceed limits.
Also the ability to customize how much over the speed limit the warning should sound.
Also, to see the sky into top foreground as it would appear according to earths rotation.1 vote -
Alert about speed cameras even when not speeding.
Currently, with speed camera alerts enabled, the alert only activates when speeding while approaching a speed camera. An option to display the alert regardless of current speed would be beneficial.

Notorious speed trap locations/communities
There any number of notorious locations or communities that appear to prey on out of town drivers by placing hidden speed traps and adhering to exact speed limits. The locals know of them and even worse the local cops smile and wave at the same locals "speeding". By contrast they seem to relish going after out of town folks who are not likely or able to dispute a speeding ticket. Some sort of warning to unknowing folks that any speed beyond the speed limit puts you at risk.

Speed history
Keep speed history for past 90 days. Ability to sort it by dates or trips and map view. Log speed even when not navigating. Give user the ability to turn this feature on. This is useful when getting pulled over or camera ticket. This feature can be a expanded Google Maps "your timeline" with pin point speed history.

During radar warning speed limit is not visible
During radar warning the "current speedlimit" is shifted above and disappears under the "next direction change information". Then you can not see the speed you are actually driving during the speed control, this please needs improvement.

Speed traps notifications
Early notifications about speed traps inform you whenever you are in the area of the speed trap.
But now, if you are entering the speed trap area at the allowed speed, they don’t inform you about it, even if you are entered at the allowed speed, but increase your speed in this area.8 votes -
Speed limit change audible alert for 5mph increments
I know a voice alert was added around 2024 for larger speed changes, but many roads especially state and county routes can vary widely and often going from 55 to 25 very quickly and then bumping slowly as you exit a town from 25 to 35 to 45 to 55. To avoid speed traps on entering a town a voice alert would be great for when the speed limits change by increments of 5 mph. Small town love to catch non-locals for speeding!!!

Can we please get speed limit data added to route previews? This is helpful for bike riders and motorcyclists. Seems like an easy add.
Speed limit data should be visible on the route map and preview. I am not referring to real time while driving speed limit (this exists and works great) rather when doing trip planning. For those of us with motorcycles or bikes we want to see the speed limit for a route.

Controls on phone when using android auto or carplay
I'm a waze user paired with android auto device. I think it would be alot better if you are able to make it so you can control waze with your mobile device and see the map with android auto, google maps started doing this and it feels like waze is missing this opportunity. It would be great if you can end drives, start drives, see turns up ahead on the phone while using AA while the main map is displayed on AA

Progressive speed warning
Displaying speed in red when speeding is a nice feature. The audible warning is also great and not distracting. But it was be nice to have option to play different tones as you go over speed limit by certain intervals. Eg. 5 over, 10 over, etc. It is easy to keep going faster on some sections of road and it would be great to be reminded.

Android Auto Version
Android Autos version of Waze is too limited.
*Pave option should be added
*Comments on reports allowed, even if only by voice input (very helpful for map editors on both ends)
*Allow reading of map comments, even if not replying. Many times this includes important information like the lane of an issue.
*Allow for location search, using voice if needed of locations while moving. Even my car from 2014 can do that much.If none of those, add a toggle button that allows app use to be switched between phone and car screen, which will solve everything, to…

About large vehicles
Waze currently does not support heavy vehicles. However, large vehicles also cause traffic congestion, so it would be better to deal with them in the future.
Supporting larger vehicles allows you to collect more information. This information includes important information for understanding traffic conditions, such as the location and situation of traffic jams and road conditions.
Collecting this information allows Waze to provide you with more accurate traffic information. This allows drivers to avoid traffic jams or choose the best route if they are stuck in traffic.
However, supporting large vehicles also increases the burden on the server. Therefore,…

Speed limit
If possible to place the speedlimit on the left top or right top. It’s a lot safer for us as motorriders to look up in stead of the bottom of the map

Adding a maximum speed for adapting maximal speed roads
Hi,
In Belgium and the Netherlands (and probably other countries too) we have adapting maximal speed signs on the highroads (and on soms other roads too). In case of trafficjams or accidents they lower the maximum speed on that road so you don’t get extra accidents and jamms (other people that go faster and slower on the highway etc).
It would be handy to have a button on the ‘report screen’ to set a new (temporary) maximum speed for that segment while you are in your car so that other people can see it, your maximum speed is properly indicated…

Speed bump notification
Please can you make speed bumps in a different category so it can be turned off without removing the rest of the hazards. Living in London means I get a speed bump notification every 5 seconds and it’s very distracting when driving. Thanks, Josh
