Feature Suggestion - School Zone

Post by RicSamuels
I would like to strongly suggest that we add school zones to the NA maps. It may not be practical to list times or actual speed limits as they can very from school zone to school zone. What would be practical would be the following:
1. Report beginning and end of the zone via the client.
2. Audible alert in navigation mode and non navigation mode when approaching.
3. Visual on the maps.
4. Allow map editors and area managers to verify, correct and clean up.

This would be a great safety feature for our kids and help us keep from getting tickets because we were not paying attention.

Been suggested before, please search before posting (and this goes DOUBLE for an Area Manager who should be active in the forums).

Since Waze keeps the speed data in 10-15 minute chunks, it knows when the school zone slows down and will route around it automatically. Remember, sometimes it's faster to go through the slowdown than to go around it.

I remember suggesting that before, but I don't remember where the discussion went with that topic (almost a year ago I brought that up).
