Please remove the daily limit on alerts.
Daily limit on map alerts for police and vehicles on shoulder is WAY too low. Please raise the limit. On a long trip of 600 miles i passed through major cities and the amount of alerts goes up of course. This limit should be related to the WAZE score for the user. The higher the points, the more alerts per day you can send.

Increase the notification for speed traps
The warning for speed traps was probably intended for when a trap is sited on the same road as the motorist. Some traps are now being located on higher elevations (road bridges that cross the target road or higher ground) that provide a greater line of sight and thereby rendering the normal speed trap warning insufficient. I would happily receive a warning at least a mile out from a trap, instead of seeing the trap before the alert occurs.

Audible Alert for Fixed Speed Cameras
Every Sat Nav device that I have ever owned HAS an audible (sound) alert to speed cameras. This is because most drivers keep their eyes on the road most of the time, not on their Sat Nav. I have done some basic programming in the past and know that adding a PING (sound) to something that happens in a software program is the EASIEST thing that a developer could possibly do. So, WHY on earth are Waze developers ignoring this important feature, when so many people ask for it? Just flashing up Speed Camera in words at the bottom of…

Bring back the “fastest route”, “add speed cameras”
Fastest route was removed from the app. Also at 3361 third avenue in the Bronx NY there is no camera icon for an installed camera in front of the addresses referenced in this message. Further we need a feature to add bus lane cameras, school zone start and end zone speed enforcement cameras

Including the allowed speed in the vocal warning for speed camera's or trajectory control woud be a great feature.
Also a bigger actual speed and allowed speed indicator, one at the left and the other one at the right bottom of the screen woud increase usability.

Top speed
Add a customizable user chosen top speed for calculating the optimal route.
It doesn't help me much if the routjng algorithm opts for freeways where I can go unlimited but drive a detour when I can't or don't want to drive these speeds1 vote -

Alert police on both sides of the road
Currently, waze only provides an alert when approaching police on the same side of the road. In Australia, police will check vehicle speed in both directions. Waze should have the option to provide alerts when approaching police on the opposite side of the road.

RADARS:
When a radar has different speeds depending on traffic or pollution, and has not a fix speed limit but changes, then it would be useful that user may load the speed, so all users would be advised about real limit each time, just for the ones that has different speeds. For the other it would be useful to infrom about speed limit.

Predictive Coasting Speed Alert / Vorausschauende Roll-Geschwindigkeitswarnung
I suggest adding a predictive driving option to Waze that helps drivers adjust their speed more smoothly before reaching reduced speed zones.
Currently, Waze shows the reduced speed limit exactly when you reach the zone, which often forces drivers to brake actively. My proposal is that Waze should calculate the optimal point at which I should release the accelerator, allowing the car to coast into the reduced speed limit without using the brakes.
The system should display an alert such as “Reduce speed to 50 km/h in 300 m” at the right moment for coasting.Additionally, the app could optionally collect…1 vote -
More options for changing distance units
Having the map directions/ETA distance units option as well as the speed limit option. For example, the map directions/ETA in kms and then showing the speed limit in miles.
This would be useful for someone driving out of country to be aware of the speed limit while maintaining their preferred units for the directions.
I am a Canadian living in the US therefore am driving in miles/speed limit is in miles but I have a better sense of distance in kms.8 votes -

Rotational speed camera
Where I am we have permanent speed camera emplacements, but only 2 cameras that are rotated throughout these emplacements. It would be nice to be able to alert wazers to the presence of these, as Waze's current policy is to not allow temporary cameras to be mapped.

Traffic incidents, Speed traps Police Trap
Dear S/M
Im a very keen Waze user, the only suggestion I would like to make is regarding announcements of speed and police traps or other traffic incidents. These according to my driving experience using Waze should be made not only once or little bit earlier but also at least three times (for ex. 1x1000m 2x500m 3x200m) before arriving at the certain point.
Especially the ones reported by the other Waze users, because oftenly for example when I see something to report, it takes other 200-300 meters until I take the phone in my hand and finally push the reporting…7 votes -
Police Speed Check instead of Police
80% of my “Police” alerts that pop up are for people that have been pulled over, which is technically “Vehicle on Shoulder”. I end up reporting “not there” and then change it to Vehicle on Shoulder. I suggest changing Police and Police (Hidden) to Police Speed Check. This will eliminate the confusion of a speed check vs a car on the shoulder.
