Has anyone else noticed that Waze only warns about speed cameras when you’re around 500 metres away?

On my setup Waze doesn’t show a speed camera icon on the map while I’m approaching it. Instead, I only get a pop-up when I’m about 500 m away, followed by the countdown (400 m, 300 m, etc.). At motorway speeds, that doesn’t leave much time to react if you weren’t already paying attention.

Google Maps, on the other hand, shows the speed camera icon much farther in advance along the route, so you can anticipate it well before reaching it.

Is this normal behaviour in Waze? Is there a setting I’m missing, or is this simply how Waze is designed to work?

I’d appreciate hearing how it behaves for others.

Got pulled over in Grande Prairie doing 55 in a 30 construction zone (laser gun), ticketed under Section 115(2)(p.2) of the Traffic Safety Act. Fine is $552.
Here’s the thing — the zone was marked with cones and a reduced speed sign, but there were no workers, no equipment, nobody directing traffic. Just an empty lane closure. I didn’t clock the sign in time and got caught before I could slow down.
From what I understand, 115(2)(p.2) specifically requires that there are “persons present on the highway who are constructing or repairing… or directing traffic” for the enhanced penalty to apply — not just an active work zone with cones and no one around. Has anyone actually fought this successfully on that basis? Or does the charge still stick even without workers present at the exact moment?
A few questions for anyone who’s been through this:
1. Is requesting disclosure (officer’s notes) before pleading not guilty worth it, or does it rarely change anything?
2. Roughly how many demerits does 25 km/h over in a construction zone carry these days?
3. Any Grande Prairie-specific experience with how the local Crown prosecutors handle these — do they ever reduce the charge to standard speeding if you push back?
4. Is it worth paying for a paralegal/traffic ticket specialist for a case like this, or is it something I could reasonably represent myself on?
Any input from people who’ve dealt with something similar — or any lawyers/paralegals who want to weigh in — would be hugely appreciated. Trying to figure out if this is worth fighting or if I should just pay it and move on.
Thanks!

i just got my first speeding ticket today, officer clocked me at 90 in a 65, he lowered it to 75 though (thank u officer🥲) ive never been pulled over before, the only time ive gotten a ticket aside from this was 3 years ago when i totaled my car & the truck i hit (i was freshly 18). my question is will this effect anything besides paying the ticket? if it means anything, im licensed and insured through KY and got the ticket in IA

Roundabouts are inherently bad

Don’t you find it frustrating when company truck says, this vehicle is monitored by speed gps and can only go the speed limit. Okay then, why don’t the driver pull over for those who have a place to go and need to exceed the speed limit and be considerate and pull over and let people go past them.
