Speed camaras and speed bumbs
Your new icon for speed cameras is not very visible, it is too small and the blue colour is exactly as the route ahead when you are following a route on dark mode, night mode. It does not really help at all.
Your speed bumps alert is too much and very annoying, in London every single street, road has speed bumps, nearly all of them. I don't see the point in alerting about it so often and repeatedly all the time. The speed bumbs icon it more visible and alerting in size and colours than the speed cameras…2 votes -
ALPR Avoidance
Widespread ALPR systems have recently drawn a lot of attention, and I believe that more users of turn-by-turn navigation apps including Waze will want to avoid driving past these cameras.
I would like to suggest that Waze implement a feature which allows users to view the location of known ALPR cameras, and also gives users the option to only use routes that avoid ALPR cameras.Thank you for considering this request, and for creating and supporting Waze!

2. I like on google maps app, when i set my direction and navigation mode starts i can turn off my screen on smartphone to save energy.when i want slto see where i am and details from navigation, i just…3 votes -
Alert Settings
Please add a user setting for full or reduced alerting on roads usually travelled. The current regime of forced reduced alerting is causing confusion, map queries to WAZE and mistrust that WAZE is reliable. Not receiving alerts (regardless of alert settings) about driving behaviour cameras on usually travelled roads, as currently occurs when alerts reduce, defeats the purpose of using the app.

Incorecct use of waze
People are starting to tag speed cameras daily in areas where no speed cameras are. This is so they can just try control traffic for their own personal preference. There should be a function to report suspicious use of the app and with enough mis uses they get blocked for a period as warning than blocked long term if they continue.

I like to see more options regarding speed cam
I like to see more options reg speed cameras. Such as opt "other side" or "lazer speed cam" etc
1 voteThank you for your suggestion!
This suggestion will not be implemented for the time being. Adding more and more options to reporting, especially for less popular types of reports such as other side which will also require another window/card, is not something we are aiming for at the moment. Please be aware that other side reporting is already available by voice using the Google Assistant! We believe investing in voice can create essentially a better and more scalable experience and we hope to bring it to more languages soon.

Support timed Pedestrian and Cycle Zones
In the UK we have new timed pedestrian and cycle zones with cameras that are drivable only at certain times. These are typically near schools and mean the road is no longer usable. Data from this could be collected from Google Street-view for where the zones are and what times they operate to prevent Waze routing you through them when the pedestrian and cycle zone is in operation.

Danger zone entry and exit icons with Android Auto in France
Hello,
Would it be possible to improve the announcement of danger zones for France (because in our country, announcing the precise location of speed cameras is prohibited!)?
The ideal would be to have an icon when you enter and another icon when you leave a danger zone in addition to the voice announcement and the small frame at the top left.
If we could also have on the road, a color associated with danger zones as in the style of traffic announcements, to best indicate the duration of the zone.Other applications like Tomtom do so why not Waze!…

Refined UI
This may not pertain to most people, but for those of you who use the Waze app in the landscape view may have similar issues. First of all, the alert box for train crossings and red light cameras takes up approximately 40% of the bottom of the screen, as well as the direction arrows information covers the speed display. Some of the other icons are piled on top of each other. If the UI were to be more like the Android auto version of Waze or Gmaps it would be much better and easier to use.
Take a look…

Wave Hazard Spam
I have my sound option on Alerts Only and I get spammed w/ hazards and would like the option of turning off hazards, not only on the screen, but also on audio. I commute 45 minutes to work and 45 minutes home in Denver. I must pass 5 cars on the side of the road each way, and being on a freeway, it's more annoying than helpful, add in construction, red light cameras, and snow,, and the amount of alerts becomes annoying, especially as each one mutes my audio-book or Pandora and thus I miss a few lines in…

More reportables
There are a few more reportables needed. We need one for mobile speed cameras and one for reporting where there is road works and the speed limits, because it could change your route.

Notifications and Alerts
Hi team,
Great work on this service—really appreciate what you're doing! I have two suggestions that could enhance the experience:
Would it be possible to receive earlier notifications for speed traps?
Could we also get an audible notification for permanent speed cameras, rather than just having them displayed on the screen? Since it's not always possible to keep an eye on the screen, a notification would be really helpful.
Keep up the fantastic work!
Best Regards.

Update map
There are no speed cameras or red light cameras in Cleveland. They got voted out a year or two ago. Please remove them from the map. Also, just because there are cones on the side of the road does not mean road works head. There is always construction but when I try to make X it out it never goes away, its all ways saying road works when it's just normal conditions with some barrels lined up off to side (i-77 and i-480) area.

Vehicle head unit
Have WAZE installed on my vehicle’s touch screen head unit. Here are the “problems that I’ve come across, both would seem like easy upgrades to make?
a) When not actually navigating, 1/3 of the screen is used up with the search bar and my WAZE, resulting in limited visual info. There seems to be no way to get these to go away until needed.
b) audio alerts for speed cameras seem to have been removed? I get red light alerts but only a visual alert for fixed speed cameras.
