    I just got caught by a mobile speed camera, the Waze warning popped up as I came over the brow of a hill and I saw the police van in the far distance, probably about a mile. Unfortunately they saw me as well!
    Speed based notifications would not help in this situation as they detect you as soon as you heave into sight.
    The warning distance needs to be much more than the latest speed camera detection distance.

  2. It would be great if the distance of the alerts was customizable - so that warnings could be provided earlier.

    Hey,

    Please note we're changing the status of this suggestion to Not right now, since we finalized our plans for 2024 and this idea won't be implemented this year.

    We hope to include it in our plans for later down the line.

    Thanks!

    Modern mobile speed cameras have a detection distance of over 1km (0.6 miles) so the notification needs to be at least 1 mile or maybe more before the reported location. The notification distance should be separate to fixed cameras that have a shorter detection distance.
