Speed limit/Speedometer
Recent change to the speed limit sign being pushed to the right vs being on the lower left is not working. I have to search for it. Also any alerts covers up the speed icon. Also the left hand part of the screen is useless as everything pushed to the right. In busy traffic conditions this can be dangerous.

Check time based turn restrictions during recalculation
Waze doesn't seem to take time based restrictions into account as it recalculates. When you start the drive it might be OK to make a turn, but a 5 minute delay would make the turn illegal. As Waze updates the ETA it should also check that turns remain legal.

speed / progress estimation
In areas where there is no GPS available, expecially in tunnels, what about a speed / progress estimation? This could be based on:
1) let's say.. 80%-90% of speed before entering a tunnel
2) if other wazers drove through that tunnel shortly before, you should know when they entered and left the tunel and so approximate the speed in the tunnel.This would have several advantages:
1) no "jumping" on map, no "jumping" in ETA (as now you stand at the beginning of the tunnel and then jump to the end)
2) when there is something to report in the…15 votesGreat news! Simulating the navigation while driving in a tunnel is now available in Waze. Install the latest app version to check it out.

Spastic speed limit display
Since the last updates the speed limit seems to go spastic popping in & out. Example: PA Turnpike speed limit is 70 mphs. Cruise control set to 70 , going down hills speed increases to 70.5. Speed limit sign goes nuts - in & out. Not enough hysteresis. Distracting

Optimal Speed Suggestion
If there's a big traffic jam at a point 2/3 of the way to my destination, it may not help me get there on time if I drive at full speed or over the speed limit up to the point of the jam. Waze could set my suggested driving speed lower for a more even pace over the course of the trip. In some cases, a lower driving speed may help me conserve fuel (and thereby create a smaller carbon footprint) and if many drivers use this we may see safer roads as fewer people speed around rushing to get…

Max speed!
For me, there's only one simple addition that would make Waze the perfect GPS. The ability to enter the max allowed speed for the vehicle. For truck-drivers, caravan-drivers e.g. you're not allowed to reach the max speed on motorways e.g., so you'll manually have to calculate the additional time to your destination. TomTomGO has this. Make it happen! :)

Add some custom "speed threshold"
Waze always, by default, process the average "maximum speed" ETA for any route. I always respect speed limits, and on every ride, I lose minutes on the initial schedulded ETA.
I'd like to add some threshold to allow Waze to be more accurate.

Add speed limit to Spotify Waze-bar, would work in CarPlay
Waze for CarPlay would be great. But while waiting for that to happen, maybe you could add speed limit to the Waze directions bar in Spotify? I could get both directions and speed limits in my car kitted with CarPlay that way since Spotify works with CarPlay.

Make Waze easier for user to edit. I'd love to update the speed limits in my small town but after half and hour, I give up.

In Mexico, show the speed limit of the street, ave, blvd you will take.
As there are new speed limits and cameras for fines, it would be helpful to know the speed limit of each street

Max speed prediction
When navigating and in areas where max speed data is available, show next max speed change.
Eg. max speed: 90 km/h > in 200 metres: 50 km/h10 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

speed warning PERMANENTLY
I would like to see the OPTION to enable the acoustic warning chime PERMANENTLY as long as you drive faster than the speed limit.
Currently this warning chime will only appear once, but in my case for me it would be safer and easier to follow the speed limits when this sound would appear as long as you drive too fast. In this case the warning sound would work like the overspeed warning in airplanes, which definitely makes sense.
And because some people could not like this, it should be an aditional option in the settings.Please concider this,…

Adjustable maximum speed
For enviromental reasons i drive slower than the maximum allowed speed. Would be great if you could enter your maximum speed into waze in order to adjust your ETA
21 votesGreat news! This feature is already available in Waze. It’s called Personalized ETA.
Personalized ETA setting is turned on in Settings – Navigation – Personalized ETA. Waze would analyze the drives you took in the past, calculate how long it took you to drive sections of the route, and compare this information with Waze’s estimates. Then, it uses this info to personalize your ETA whenever you search a route in Waze.
Important: Waze won’t analyze drives that you delete from your drive history. Deleting drives may disable Waze from personalizing your ETA until you take more drives.

Speed limit indication on map
I would be nice to have the speed limit on the map.

Notorious speed trap locations/communities
There any number of notorious locations or communities that appear to prey on out of town drivers by placing hidden speed traps and adhering to exact speed limits. The locals know of them and even worse the local cops smile and wave at the same locals "speeding". By contrast they seem to relish going after out of town folks who are not likely or able to dispute a speeding ticket. Some sort of warning to unknowing folks that any speed beyond the speed limit puts you at risk.

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?

Time Based Restrictions, can we make this happen guys?
"No left turn between 7am and 10 am."
"Do not enter between 3pm and 6pm."There are thousands of these signs in hundreds of cities all over the US. Can't we allow for local map editors to save time based restrictions into the map?
