Can you change the alerts so that cameras are warned at any speed nit just when at speed limit or above. Many times I've approached under the speed limit, had no audible warning then my speeds increased as I've got closer

New York City is deploying more mobile camera cars that are not police. Please add a feature so drivers can warn other drivers.

Add Alert for Roadside Assistance Vehicles (Australia)
I’d like to suggest adding a specific alert or hazard option for stationary roadside assistance vehicles in Australia (e.g. RAA, tow trucks). A new rule in South Australia—and soon other states—requires drivers to slow down to 25 km/h when passing these vehicles displaying flashing amber lights.
Including a reportable category or automatic alert would help increase compliance, improve safety for roadside workers, and align with local road laws.

Avoid roads with 70 km/h speed limit in France
I’m currently driving a sans permis car in France, which has a maximum speed of only 45 km/h. That’s why having the option to avoid roads with a 70 km/h speed limit is incredibly helpful for drivers like me. On these roads, it’s common to see cars not only reaching the speed limit but often exceeding it. They go so fast that it’s impossible for me to keep up with the flow of traffic. Honestly, it stresses me out every time I find myself on one of these roads.

Apple Carplay alert notification format
Regarding Apple Carplay, the notifications for cops, hazards, etc is set up that the "Thanks & Not There" are over & under each other. I feel they should be side to side instead. 1st its already risky to take eyes off the road to press on the alert but as the car is in motion and roads flow naturally in an up & down motion, It's pretty easy to confirm the wrong answer. If they were side by side, It completely reduces the clicking of the wrong answer.

Instead of "Watch out!" when there is an alert, it would be less alarming to say "Caution" or "Be advised."

Traffic Alerts
Give drivers the option to manually enter a traffic incident ( police, speed camera etc) on the map rather than only allowing the them to report an incident on their tracking location. This can allow a driver to go a different direction or go past an incident and still enter an alert accurately for other drivers. Also allow an option for speed camera alone, because it is difficult to differentiate from police or a speed trap.

Zoom level resets after waze shows alerts while stopped
If I'm driving and set my zoom at a certain level and stop, waze shows nearby alerts... great! But when I drive again my zoom level is not what I've set it at. Also, please make the app show the alert on the side of the screen and put the pinpointed alert on the other side while in landscape mode. Sometimes an alert is useless without seeing it and currently the warning covers the map!

Put speed on top of dropdown box as it obscures it completly, even worse is police ahead pops up again over top of speed reading. NO GOOD!
Put speed over dropdown boxes as it obscures it completly, even worse is police ahead pops up again over top of speed reading. NO GOOD! Also take icons out of little circles so they appear bigger and clearer.

It would be helpful if the current speed and the permitted speed could be displayed larger in the top right corner of the carplay display,
It would be helpful if the current speed and the permitted speed could be displayed larger in the top right corner of the carplay display, or if their size could be adjusted on the carplay display. Often, both speeds are difficult to read because they're too small.

Stop hiding the direction when displaying an alert
When displaying an alert, it's very inconvenient and dangerous to suddenly have the directions hidden by the notification especially on the interchange.
I randomly chick on not there anymore just to choose the right. At that moment I need clear instructions and both hands on the wheels !2 votes -
Hi team you guys doing great job. Is there any chance you separate the speedometer and speed limit
Hi team you guys doing great job. Is there any chance you separate the speedometer and speed limit option
I believe most of the users don't want speedometer sometimes we miss the speed limit sign so it's better to have just speed limit option separate2 votes -
Speed Trap Advisory Pop-Up
I would like to see a pop up up advisory if I drive into a town/village where the entire town is a speed trap & police use LIDAR in random locations for traffic enforcement. This would give the user ample warning as this type of radar is difficult to detect. By the time you have visual on a police car, you’re already nabbed.

Alert popup windows disable feature
In android auto the alert popup windows cover vital informations (time to reach destination, lanes to pick on the upcoming crossroad). Recently, the amount of these popup alerts increased so, that they are there almost all the time. There is the option to disable alerts completely, but the alerts are what separates waze from other navigation apps, so not really a good option.
My sugestion is to include the option to disable just the popup windows while leaving the voice notification for the alerts on.
Thank you.
