So I’ve been trying to add new speed cameras in my area (NYC) for weeks now and they don’t stay on the map. People are getting nailed.
Something is afoot here, anyone else noticing issues of adding new speed traps? Back door deal???

When you say “trying to add” does that include the approval step: [https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Cameras#Camera\_Approval](https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Cameras#Camera_Approval)

I have added this one particular camera a dozen times. I can take a picture of it and post it. It’s very visible, so I’m sure other wazers have noticed it as well, not to indicate “not there.” but that’s not the only one.

You may think you added it, but reporting a camera through the app doesn’t mean adding it. That is done though WME…
Did you read the content at the link shared by CBenson above ?

Vince added the cam in WME.
Lets see how long it takes to show up in App.
