continuous speed limit alerts
Waze currently only alerts you once if you are speeding. Suggesting an option to allow to keep alerting every X number of min or seconds.

Speed Camera Audio Alerts should be User not Community Choice
It seems there is a lack of clarity regarding Speed Camera Audio Alerts and how they are triggered.
From what I can tell, audio alerts for speed cameras are a "community" choice, meaning that an audio alert will only be played given a number of conditions:
Depending on where you live - Your "community" decides what the threshold should be, that is if you are currently travelling at the speed limit or below, some communities will trigger the audio alert. Some communities require you to be travelling over the speed limit before the audio alert it triggered.…

Too many alerts on speed reduction
The alert "speed reduction ahead" became too invasive. Travelling on a mountain road or in the middle of nowhere waze keeps alerting about slowdowns ahead. This becomes quite annoying after 30-40km of road and 40-50 alerts about speed reduction ahead. It foces the user to silence the alerts... including the one important for the security. I would limit those announces. Thank you. Luca

Waze powered social speed alert standalone device for car with data built in
Speed camera warning devices are always out of date and don’t warn of police sat by the road or mobile vans. I would like a standalone device connected to the internet and with an audio and I visual warning in a discreet package.

Combination Red Light & Speed Camera
In my area there are now red light cameras that are also speed cameras. Why is this relevant? Because if the light is STALE (green for a long period and may be turning yellow/red soon at some point) I and other drivers who are aware that the light may be turning red may speed up to avoid the possibility of a receiving a red light ticket. (Because you can’t just stop for a stale green light) If you are aware the redlight camera also tickets for speed it would be a helpful reminder to keep your speed in check while…

Radar Alert for any car's velocity
I would to suggest that the radar alert works independent of the drive's speed. Sometimes you're close of the speed limit and there's no alert and you can get a ticket if you distract with something else.

alert me about speed cameras even if I'm below the limit, in the same way it does if I'm above the limit.
you need to make it so it will alert me about speed cameras even if I'm below the limit, in the same way it does if I'm above the limit. it's very annoying because I might speed up in between not getting an alert, and the camera.

Speed camera alerts only when speeding
Current speed camera alerting is an on/off toggle. You can choose to either be alerted about the camera or not. It would be nice to have the option to be alerted only if you are above (or close) to the speed limit.

Add alert/icon for police helicopters with speed radar in Romania
I propose adding a specific alert or icon for police helicopters equipped with speed radar in Romania. These helicopters regularly monitor traffic on highways and national roads, similar to mobile speed radars.
Benefits:
Alerts drivers to maintain safe speeds, reducing accidents and speeding violations.
The icon could be a helicopter with a radar symbol and function like the current mobile radar notifications.
Provides real-time, relevant information to drivers without violating any laws.
This feature would enhance road safety and improve the relevance of Waze for drivers in Romania.

Speed Camera Reports throughout an Average Speed Check Zone
When I’m alerted that i’m in an average speed check zone, I tend to get notified every 20-30 seconds of a camera as part of that zone. It gets repetitive and quite annoying as I know that I need to remain within that speed limit until i’m notified that I have left the average speed check zone. It’s just a suggestion but would it make more sense if speed camera alerts were removed whilst in an average speed check zone?

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 segment31 votes -
Suggestion: Option to set alert distance for events on the route Currently, alerts for speed cameras, police, and speed bumps are shown too
Suggestion: Option to set alert distance for events on the route
Currently, alerts for speed cameras, police, and speed bumps are shown too close to the actual point. I would like to suggest that Waze allow users to configure the distance in advance for these alerts (for example: 500m, 1km, 2km).
Benefits:
More reaction time and safer speed adjustment.
Prevents sudden braking right on top of the radar or obstacle.
Improves user experience, especially on highways and fast roads.
This customization would be very useful for drivers, particularly on long-distance routes.

improve Speeding Alerts
Could the speed indicator be improved in this way: Right now, the speeding icon stays white up to the speed limit, then as soon as 1 mph over, it goes red. I have my alert threshold set to 10% over the speed limit. I would prefer if the speeding icon does not go red until that 10% overage is exceeded. Otherwise the icon would be red most of the time, as most people drive a few mph over the speed limit. And having it red most of the time defeats the warning. It only needs to go red…

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.990 votesHey,

Only speed limit. Not current speed
I want to see my speed limit always with a big size. I don't wish to see my current speed. A car can show us our current speed.
But Waze shows both only and speed limit which I need most is very small. Why do we need to see our current speed there? Could you pls arrange settings for it?34 votes -
