Stop Wazers reporting Police when a Camera is already there
Please stop Wazers from reporting Police when a Camera is there. It often hides the Camera Icon and of course there are no Police which is very confusing. Sometimes there are a number of Police Icons at the location!

In Mexico, show the speed limit of the street, ave, blvd you will take.
As there are new speed limits and cameras for fines, it would be helpful to know the speed limit of each street

Driving with speed limitation, caravans for example.
Dear Waze Team,
First of all, thank you for an outstanding app that continues to improve travel experiences worldwide. I’d like to suggest a feature that would greatly benefit drivers who tow caravans or trailers – or who, for any reason, are legally required to drive at lower speeds than regular traffic.
Currently, Waze assumes standard vehicle behavior and speed limits. However, in many countries (such as across Europe), towing a trailer legally restricts drivers to lower speeds – often 80 km/h on highways, regardless of the posted limit. This discrepancy affects both estimated time of arrival (ETA)…

Speed limit change in the Netherlands
Hey Guys, hope you are all well and healthy. Just letting you know that the law in the Netherlands has changed. During the hours 0600 and 1900 LT the speed limit on highways is 100km an hour. Out of those times the speedlimit is a maximum of 120.
Could you please adjust programming to reflect that change?
Thanks in advance!4 votesThanks for contacting us about reporting an error on the map. Our community of volunteer map editors handle all changes to the Waze map.

Alert: Excessive traffic deceleration.
Irrespective of cause, unusually great deceleration of one vehicle is a hazard for the vehicles behind - at least on highways with average speed above that of city traffic.
Real-time alerts from the Waze system via our community of users may offer a unique opportunity to prevent (or reduce injuries and damage of) highway mass crashes.Various alerting criteria may be used e.g:
Client accelerometers (or GPS-speed time derivatives) indicating a deceleration greater than, say, the 80th percentile for that road (segment) or average speed level - established by Waze server statistics.7 votes -
Speed before sharp curves or in rough weather
Alert when a user drive to fast before curve in the road or a coming intersection.
Waze knows the speed of the car and "knows" that we are getting close to a sharp curve in the road , alert in that case would be very important . Especillay in a rough weather.5 votesGreat thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Make current speed, speed limits and warnings the largest images on the CarPlay phone companion screen
Rather than next turns or route events shown on your phone screen when the maps are pushed to a CarPlay screen, can we have a large view of current speed, speed limits and upcoming road warnings instead (or as a third view option)?

Speeding alert for drivers
Waze should make a sound to alert the driver when they are speeding.
Waze already shows you how fast you are currently driving, and it knows everything about the road you are on, so it should be simple to compare your speed to the listed speed of the road.
Waze has always been about saving time and money for Wazers, and about creating features to attract and keep people on their service. This allows Waze to on-sell quality map data to other businesses, such as Apple. Many other SatNav clients have speeding alerts to save the driver from…

Permanent displaying of speed-limit
Hi,
I suggest to show permanently the current speed-limit. Not only when I exceed it.
Why don't I know continuously the current speed-limit? If I want to know it I have to exceed it and it is a bit absurd and ridiculous.
If somebody passes by a speed-limit table (for instance during an overtaking) he would like to know the current limit. And anyway.

Add a mechanism (button or gestuer) that would take an immediate screen shot and overlay it with the current speed and coordinates
If being pulled over by a cop the user could push the button and get a map with the overlayed speed, the average speed for the last ~10 seconds, date and time and the gps coordinates. This information could be used to convince the cop or the court you weren't speeding.

Notification prioritisation
Sometimes when there is a vehicle stopped near a speed camera, the app will prioritise showing the stopped vehicle over the speed camera. Can we have a setting to allow us to set notification priorities to dictate which notifications are shown ahead of others.

Police car (camera hotspots) or patrol car hotspots
I know people generally tend to post where police cars are, but this can sometimes be inaccurate due to them moving around (highway patrol and police camera vehicles). Maybe a highlight on the map where reports are generally made frequently

Warning max speed 2 km above
I can now choose from 5 km over speed limit or more. Could you please add 2 kms above speed limit as well?

On wp8 please make the text of the current speed a little bigger.
You can do this by removing the km/u text and/or increasing the circle.
Because I use navigation a lot, I'm used to look at my phone for the current speed in stead of my dashboard.

Disable speed limit change banners
After last update every time when approaching speed speed limit change the bottom part goes red and there is a thermometer showing the speed limit.
It is impossible to turn it off!
It overrides all current information.
That red banner grabs attention what happened making driving very dangerous!
It is necessary to be able to disable this feature as well as speed limit signs on the map! We need less distraction on the map, more attention to the road!1 vote -
Police / Mobile Camera Frequent Locations
Please create a feature that allows users to report and drop a pin 📌 on locations where police or mobile speed cameras (such as tripods, vans, etc.) are spotted. This way, we can receive a warning ⚠️ before reaching those areas, especially if multiple users have reported them. It would also be helpful to see how many people have clicked a small “OK” 👍 to confirm the accuracy of each report.
