Speedometer size and location
On my 9 inch car android, speedometer is barely visible.
1. The size should be adjustable.

3. The position should be moveable.
4. Beeping sound and duration should be customizable.
5. Speed limit should blink after certain speed limit43 votes -
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.

Change the speed camera icon
The speed camera icon has recently changed to a new one however it blends in too much so I can be very misleading, the old speed camera icon was fine and was very noticeable compared to everything else (especially when you have a route inputted in)

Option to limit route at max 50 mph (spare tire)
Last week I got a flat tire. After changing it with a spare one, I went back on my way. But my speed was limited to 50 mph/80kmh due to that flat tire.
Waze suggested a route with higher speed limit which is dangerous when you are limited due to a spare tire.
There should have an option to select routes with « limit to routes with max 50 mph ». Similar to the one to avoid toll roads

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.

Allow Social Network Reporting of Speedlimits to improve accuracy of speedlimit database
If you allow the user base to report speed limits it would be more accurate than having a static database of speed limits. Also there should be an option for "Variable Speed Limit" for places where the speed limit changes depending on traffic (for example, I-90 and I-5 in Seattle, WA have variable speed limits that range from 30 to 60 mph). There should also be a temporary construction speed limit option in areas where there is construction--you can pop up a verification screen so users to confirm whether the construction speed limit still applies once…

1) Update speed limit with smart motorways
1) update smart motorway speeds more frequently as most the time it’s not up to date.
2) make it easier to see which route is the most economical and which is the fastest. Sometimes I wanna drive economically but it’s harder to see which route is lowest miles.1 vote -
Re-enable Other Side Police Reporting
Otherside Police Reporting- This was probably one of the best features of the App- other than the same side regular police notification. It gives a warning for less traveled roads that may have a Waze user traveling in the other direction on a less traveled road whereas a same way traveler has not yet passed and left an Alert. PLEASE BRING THAT FEATURE BACK ASAP!

Add contrast to the arrow in average speed bar
When displaying the average speed check bar on the left side of the screen, it would help to make your own location on the bar easier to see.
At present the arrow on the bar is light blue, a brighter colour arrow would made your location in the average speed check area easier to see in bright conditions.2 votes -
Add routes that *avoid* red light and speed cameras similar to routes that avoid tolls.
Similar to routes that avoid tolls there should be routes that avoid speed cameras and red light cameras.

The road speed is too small, the speed I am going is less important as you can see this already in your vehicle,
Please swap the vehicle speed as that’s bigger & less important with the road speed
I have to keep swapping to google maps to check road speed as Waze too small

When showing "Routes" options, show "average speed" per option.
When showing "Routes" options, in addition to "time" and "distance", show "average speed" per option. A user may want to choose an option whereby he/she is moving at a greater average speed, even if it means extending the duration of the trip, especially if the added duration is insignificant. For example, a user may prefer to travel 60 km in 1 hour than 40 km in 55 minutes because instead of siting in traffic the user is moving at a greater speed.

Maximum Speed info box when crossing a border
When crossing borders if would be interesting to have a little popup infobox appear on the screen which summarizes the different speeds allowed in the country to which you have crossed the border to.
For example when i'm driving from Luxembourg to France, when crossing the border into France, i would get the info that
1) on Tolled Freeways the max speed is 130 kph
2) Non Tolled Freeways max speed 110 kph.
3) Minor Highway 80kph and etc.When i drive into Germany.
1) Freeway 130 kph
2) Minor highway 90 kph
3) in the city 50 kph10 votes -
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.

speedlimit notification based on MPH over limit
Currently notification is based on percentage over the posted limit. In the USA ticketing is typically based on MPH over the limit. example 2-10MPH over is 2 points, 10-15MPH over is 3 points, etc...
Ability to set the notification threashold based on how many MPH you are over the posted limit would be a great option.

the option to chose critical overspeeding threshold (in km/miles like 2-5 mph for 70 mph speed limit or use percentage)
Good idea is to add the option to chose critical overspeeding threshold (in km/miles like 2-5 mph for 70 mph speed limit or use percentage). Flash (with sound) the screen when overspeeding or near of overspeeding occurs. And double/multiply earned points for safe and active drivers :) in dependence of time slot like a rush hour or happy hour or last week :) hope it helps!

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
