Time based speed limits
Speed limits are not always a fixed ones. For example , roads around the schools have a speed limit of 30 kmph during the morning and evening hours. Whereas this limit is not valid for Sundays and during the rest of hours in a day.

I will also say even in the US, in the state of Arkansas, certain portions of the highway might be 65mph speed limit but 55mph at night.

Also need to consider the fact that when schools are off during summer etc. then these time-based speed limits are not applicable as there is no school

After dealing with what feels like 100 URs on the M4 this morning, I really do hope that the roadmap is short rather than long.
I also feel there's two types of time based speed limits that we could do with - the "permanent" time based speed limits - where you know that every week from 8am to 9am the road will be 20mph instead of 30mph, or every Sunday it's 30mph and the rest of the week is 60mph, and the temporary time based speed limits - the road will be 40mph for 3 months then back to 70mph but the date is unknown (rather like road closures)
I hope there will be a solution for both scenarios :)

This feature is extremely important, also outside of school zones. Germany has a lot of time based speed limits, especially for noise reduction at night, which are currently not visible at all on the Waze app.

Can we also add an identifier that you are in a school zone, or upcoming active school zone similar to what we do for railroad tracks?
