Waze now warns drivers about more than just speed traps. From red-light cameras to mobile phone checks, the app helps you tailor alerts to your commute and avoid costly surprises.

Then Waze announces: “Camera ahead.”
Instantly, you check your speed.
These moments are why camera alerts matter.
Waze has expanded the range of enforcement cameras it reports, making the app more than just a shortcut to dodge traffic.
What the Feature Is, How It Works, and Why It Matters
The Waze app doesn’t flag only speed cameras anymore.
It now covers red-light cameras, stop-sign enforcement, HOV lanes, bus-lane violations, mobile phone use, seat-belt checks, noise cameras, and even “safe distance” alerts.
These alerts are fueled by the Waze community and, in some cases, official data.
The point is not only to help you avoid a fine but also to keep you aware of the driving rules that vary from place to place.
For anyone who travels often, or for business users who drive new routes every week, that heads-up can be invaluable.
