Recent change, now difficult to report speed limit corrections
Due to semi recent change of reporting UI, I find it very difficult to report corrections to speed limits.

calculated average speed of average speed segment
There are some road segments which have average speed cameras. Almost always the human beings unable to calculate average speed, so instead they simply don't exceed the enforced speed, the max speed, not average. In case if there are obstructions, slow vehicles, turning vehicles in the average speed segment, the real average speed may fall significantly below what was requested by Road Code rules.
Please add indicator of calculated average speed of passing of the current average speed segment37 votes -
Lower speed threshold setting
All of the speed threshold settings are for at or above the speed limit. By the time the alert goes off I am already breaking the speed limit. It would be nice to set a threshold like 3 or 5 mph below the speed limit to prevent ever going over.

Reduced Speed Limit
New feature of showing speed limit is almost useless in the United Kingdom because it only shows:
- Where speed changes from 70 to 40, 30 or 20
- Where speed changes from 60 to 30 or 20
- Where speed changes from 50 to 20.UK Goverment Guidance of 2024 gives instructions on transitional limits, where a short length of 40mph or 50mph is used between a national limit and another length on which a lower limit is in force, with 600m or more if possible (with allowances for 400m and 300m in some critera)
This means any…

Alerts based on time
You should calculate how far or how long a Alert stays on the screen based on your speed because if something is a mile away and you're traveling miles an hour config one hour to get to especially if the traffic jam so if you could display something which is like a minute away they sometime be about the much better use of the screen space because something is staying there

Enable audio alert for speed cams regardless of the speed.
Waze currently only triggers audio alerts about speed cams when the driver is above the speed limit of the specific cam.
Since the speed detection on Waze is very flawed (at least here in Brazil/Rio de Janeiro), and not all cams have their speed limit properly set, it would be MUCH better if Waze triggered it's audible alert for speed cams independently of the fact that the driver may be above or below the limit of the cam.
Thank you.
And keep up the good work!2,151 votes -
Add speed limit near the camera icon
Since all cameras have static speed limit, it would be great to extend camera icon to contain information about speed limit(like current icon + 50/70/110 or another number). This will help driver to understand limit much earlier before camera and correctly choose speed without fast braking, so this will improve safety on roads

Speed Limit Correction | Help Improve Waze – Allow Speed Limit Feedback Again
I believe it would be very helpful to bring back the feature that allowed users to suggest corrections to the speed limit shown in the app. This function used to be available, and I would often use it to report inaccurate speed limits on certain roads. However, it was removed a few years ago, and there is currently no easy way to suggest corrections directly through the app.
Restoring this feature would greatly improve the accuracy of navigation and benefit all users by keeping speed limit data up to date. Please consider reintroducing this option within the app.
Thank you!

Speed Bumps
I will suggest the inclusion of speed reducers commonly used in Brazil, called "lombadas" or "quebra-molas" (speed bumps). These elements are rarely well signposted.
Are a ridge set in a road surface, for purposes to make drivers to reduce speed.993 votesHey,
We're happy to share that this idea is already live!
Thanks!

Time to destination/speed
While I do like coolwalk better then the previous version, I don't understand why you don't copy and paste the phone version of Waze. As someone who commutes almost 150 miles a day, the time to destination was most useful. I could tell how much traffic there was by the time to destination. Now it was replaced with toll pricing, which is not even accurate. Speed and speed limit need to be on the drivers side and also as a colorblind person, the red over black is even more difficult to see in addition to the font being incredibly small.…

Speed limit multiple beeps for alerts when speed limit is exceeded.
I would love to have multiple beep sound when you exceed the speed limit, different beep options would be nice for user preferences
12 votesGreat news! The option to get speed limit alerts is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Speed limit/autovelox notification when screen off
It would be great to have a speed limit notification and autovelox with a big pop up (like the speed limit signal 50 km/h) even when the screen is off. Often when the smartphone is connected with bluetooth I cannot hear the speed limit alarm. I'll be always aware of the speed limit and autovelox on my route saving battery!

More obnoxious speed limit warning
Sound when exceeding speed limit by set amount is a great option, but very easy to miss the warning. Instead of a short beep, Please add an option to select the sound, option to repeat sound until under set speed overage, and a flashing screen or other obnoxious ongoing visual warning. This would have saved me a ticket and be very beneficial as no other app does this.

Set by default speed limit for all country and city/town/metro area, for each segment
adding automatically speed limits for each segment in all metro zones/cities/towns and all over the country,
this limits can be approved and coordinated with all community managers.
and if in one city is a segment with a different speed limit, any local editors change speed limits value

Sounds Alerts under the limits
Activate again the setting to have sound alerts also under the speed limits, I use waze with my motorbike, and I need to be concentrate to the ridin and I can't see every time the red visual alert on the display.
If I'm ready for a overtake, I can risk to don't see the speed alert2 votes -
Make speed limit larger on apple carplay
I have read the responses to this issue. It seems to be a bot responding as:
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.
That is NOT the issue. Just remove the speedometer and make the speed limit LARGER. Like it appears on Google Maps, which owns Waze.

My Ford navigation system shows the posted speed limits as I drive through them. It would be nice if WAZE could do that!

Hi all, it would be nice if the app had an option for voice alert when the next speed limit is coming or the speed limit changed. Thank you
