Verbal Speed Camera Alerts should be on constantly or make a button
In the UK, people loved Waze, simply due to its Verbal Alerting behaviour for everything. But a few months ago, speed camera verbal alerts were turned off if you're under the speed limit.
Not only is this dangerous but it could cause speeding tickets. Let me explain with this is problematic:
1) firstly, the main priority should be to get out eyes off the screens and on the road. It's self explanatory, if I'm constantly having to look fir the speed camera sign on the app and my eyes are off the road then this is a disaster waiting to happen at 70mph. Please note, not everyone needs to speed to be made aware of a camera, we should just be alerted.
2) the new feature is that you need to be above the speed limit to be warned/alerted of a camera, but in the UK we have smart motorways (which aren't smart but are a pain). On these motorways we have speed limits that change according to the traffic and can be 20mph now and 60mph the next hour, the cameras here are also set to change their flashing threshold per the updates, but for Waze, how does it make sense that I will only be alerted if I'm going 61mph when the live speed limit change is 30mph.
3) what if I'm under the speed limit 500meters behind the camera and then don't see the icon on screen or the camera as I get closer and get flashed doing 24 in a 20 zone and since the last year UK has changed from average 30 zones to 20 and this makes going over 20mph very easy by accident.
Please fix this issue OR LET US CHOOSE AND GIVE US A BUTTON.
If you don't want us having constant speed camera alerts, whether below, at or above the speed limit, then please AT LEAST GIVE US THE OPTION.
Just make a toggle button and everyone will be happy.
This is a big talk in the UK car scene right now and unsure why more tickets have not yet been made.

CHANGE SPEED CAMERA AND RED LIGHT CAMERA ICONS BACK TO THE OLD ICON OR GIVE US THE OPTION TO CHOOSE.
Waze changed the speed camera and red light camera icon on the map and it’s so much harder to see now.
Just got a ticket for going 2 mph over the speed limit because I didn’t see the camera on my map

Voice navigation instructions based on traffic lights and stop signs.
Apple Maps would say “At the next light turn left” or “At the stop sign turn right” or “Go past this light, and at the next one, turn left” which is very useful and helps me make turns at the right intersection, especially if two streets are close to each other.

Speed Limit Alerts for Commercial Vehicles
In the UK speed limits for public light goods (commercial) vehicles are different, so for example on national speed-limit A-roads, cars are allowed to do 60mph, but commercial vehicles like panel vans, can only do 50mph. It’s to do with the increased payloads they potentially carry.
This differential isn’t catered for in the app, so when it’s set to alert when the speed limit is reached, a van driver in many cases is actually 10mph over which is enough of a margin to receive an endorsement in the UK.
The speed differences for light goods vehicles are however standardised: they can do 70mph the same as cars on motorways; 60mph instead of 70mph on dual-carriage ways; and 50mph instead of 60mph on single carriage national speed limit A roads. Given this standardisation, it shouldn't be too difficult for the devs to provide what would be an incredibly useful setting for commercial vehicle drivers who I’m sure make up a good swathe of the community given how much time they spend driving. Thanks.

Waze needs a "Tesla Public Supercharger" charge network category
The tesla DC fast charge / "Supercharger" network is split between chargers that are only for Tesla vehicles and Public chargers that allow any EV to charge. Waze needs a new charge network category of "Tesla Public Supercharger" so people with a non-tesla EV who want to use the Tesla network aren't routed to a Tesla only charger.

Cars with caravans
Could you do routes for cars and caravans. This should take into account the extra width and the difficulty in reversing along country lanes if you meet an oncoming vehicle

iOS live activities
Hi Waze team.!
Apple has added live activities to iOS a long time ago which allows apps to show you stuff from the Dynamic Island . Apple are already utilizing this feature in their Apple Maps app and users of Apple Maps can see directions and other stuff even when they are not using the app in the foreground .
I would like to ask if you can add this feature as well as it will greatly improve the usability of the app.
Thank you !

Velocímetro
Posição do velocímetro é prejudicada pela mensagem de ocorrência de "RADAR'.
A visualização do velocímetro fica prejudicada, ou até mesmo encobertada pela mensagem enorme alertando sobre RADAR'.
Solução proposta é permitir, nas próximas atualizações, que o usuário escolha a melhor posição do Velocímetro no mapa. Ou que o mesmo
seja flutuante.Obrigado e aguardo.

Vehicle NOT “car” on side of road
Recent changes to the hazard reporting system has it calling a vehicle on the side of the road always a car, but the majority of the time it’s not a car it seems. Why did it change from vehicle on side of road to car on side of road? It’s like the folks at Waze have never seen a truck.
It’s also also still too many taps to report this. Furthermore, the Button to report this is right in the middle which makes it too easy to tap something else, it should be either at the very top or the very bottom because this is almost certainly one of the most commonly reported things. Make it a no-brainer to tap.

speed camera popup
The speed camera warning popup obscures the lane guidance when used in Android Auto. Lane guidance is more important than the speed warning, especially when getting close to highway exits or when the upcoming turn is close to the speed camera. Please reduce the speed camera pop up or move it elsewhere!

Add “avoid freeways” to drop down menu on map screen.
It would be super useful to have the option to avoid freeway’s using the drop down list instead of having to scroll through all the preferences to find it. Especially once you’ve already started driving, and you want to change routes. It’s much more useful than “avoid ferries” when you live in a big city. I have 3 freeways near my home, and when I need to go just a few miles it always wants to put on a freeway just to have me get off one exit later.
