Change how ETA works
Other sugestions ask similar but all forget us, cyclists. The eta is always based on cars, I need it to be adjusted to fit my average speed, not using a data stored in who knows where. I want it to update live based on my speed at a time.

ALERTS - NOTIFICATION ADVANCED BASED ON ACTUAL SPEED, NOT AT FIXED DISTANCES.
Reduce notification distance (based on speed limits, best on current average speed, better on a setting based on current average speed).
It often happens me that on city roads the navigator gives me informations about three crossroads ahead causing confusion.
I hear "traffic light with camera" I expect it to be the very next traffic light, not the the one after that.
Or "railroad crossing ahead" and I turn on a road 100m before the railroad (using waze just for map, not for actual…

Suggestions to Improve Navigation and Safety in Waze
I have a few suggestions to improve Waze: First, please keep the name of the destination visible while driving—sometimes it’s easy to accidentally choose the wrong location. Second, when a speed camera alert appears, it covers the current speed, making it hard to know if I'm speeding—please adjust the layout to keep the speed visible. Third, it would be helpful to have an audible alert when there’s a speed camera or police nearby, so drivers don’t need to keep looking at the screen.

The option to be able to mark speed bumps or potholes on the map for yourself or for everyone
Mark for yourself or others the areas where there are speed bumps or potholes to reduce speed in advance before reaching that area marked on the map and be careful, since in Mexico there are many speed bumps that are not marked, in addition potholes are common, and the fact of being able to reduce speed in advance would make many drivers take better care of their vehicle.

Disable "show on map reduced speed alerts"
Disabling the option "show on map reduced speed alerts" should be available under reports according to google support for Android mobile.
This option is not available tough.
I want to be able to turn off the "reduced speed" reports.
Please fix.
Thank you.1 vote -
Allow user to adjust the speed of audio/TTS annoucements (0.5x, 0.8x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x)
Spotify and YouTube allow users to control the speed of audios or videos.
You can play audios or videos at speeds of 0.5x, 0.8x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x and 3x.
I suggest the same should apply to Waze.
Audio or TTS announcements could be faster or slower depending on the user's preferences.

Country-Specific Speed Limit Sign with Symbol for Variable Limits
Country-Specific Speed Limit Sign with Symbol for Variable Limits
Problem
Waze’s static database cannot display real-time variable speed limits (VSLs) on roads like Israel’s Highway 20 (Ayalon), Switzerland’s A1, Germany’s A3, Austria’s A1, the UK’s M25, the USA’s I-95, Canada’s Highway 401, Australia’s M1, and India’s Delhi expressways. Fixed speed limits (e.g., 120 km/h or 60 km/h) can mislead drivers, risking speeding tickets or accidents, especially on long stretches without repeater signs. Showing no limit confuses users and suggests unedited segments. This issue frustrates Waze communities in the UK, USA, India, Canada, and beyond, demanding a smarter solution.Current…

Reports and Hazard Alerts
Speed camera alerts or warnings should sound regardless of the speed travelling. I would rather know something is there even if under speed. GPS speed monitoring is not as accurate as a vehicles speedometer, it's usually 5mph out.

Thank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze already displays a speedometer, including both your driving speed and the speed limit for the road you’re currently on.

Enforcement trailer
Germany and parts of Europe experience a whole new kind of speed cameras since a year or so, the so-called "enforcement trailers".
Since two months these are used on the german Autobahn on a regular basis.
The trailers are moved from place to place and stay there for up to two weeks. The places are used recurrent, e.g. there are 40 places in North Rhine Westfalia and 10 trailers, every place get's a trailer once in a while.Marking them as mobile speed camera is useless, since they always disappear because of the low waze usage in germany.

Enable users in Uganda to map out the new speed limits on the roads and get alerts when they are driving above the speed limit
New speed limits have been implemented in Uganda alongside electronic speed ticketing. There are little to no speed limit signs so this would help people monitor and adhere to speed limits during a commute.
The feature required is the ability to map the speed limits so we can crowd source the information

Maximal speed setting for each type of road
My employer wants me to respect the below maximal speed :
- 110 km/h when limited to 130 km/h,
- 100 km/h when limited to 110 km/h,
- 80 km/h on bidirectionnal road limited to 90km/h.
I would like to be able to define these parameters in order to optimize my route.4 votes -
Allow users to suggest speed limit corrections
Currently, speed limits on the map can only be updated by map editors. This process is slow, especially when the main source of information, like Google Street View, is outdated. This leads to inaccurate speed limits or missing data on many road segments.
This suggestion is to add a new reporting option that allows any user to suggest a correction to the speed limit. This would not directly change the speed limit on the map, but it would create a "pending edit" for map editors to review and approve.
How it would work:
A new "Map Issue" report could be…1 vote -

Display actual GPS speed and not car’s info
When connected to CarPlay the speed on the supposedly gps speed in Waze always shows a 1km/h difference compared to that on the speedometer (at least in my case)
When NOT connected to CarPlay the difference is larger. At 90 km/h on the speedometer the speed in Waze is 85 km/h and at 140 the speed on Waze is 130. (Actual GPS speed)
When connecting to CarPlay a message says that the phone will use selected data from the car and this includes the car’s speed. However, this value is not accurate.
