Have this too. Always on the A299 in Kent, UK. Both directions.
If I'm on it and moving at 70mph, it will report traffic at a lower speed.
Example in pic is on Thursday, time UTC+1 (BST).

Yep, noticed one yesterday on a almost abandoned 10-lane freeway.

Yeah it's not just you. This needs sorted ASAP! I believe it may be due to changes in the data signal.
Waze look into that please, I think I might be right and it'd be a good place to start :-)
