If you already know how to configure radar alerts in Waze but want to know how Waze works with radars, we will inform you of how the application will notify youthat there is a radar while you are driving.
The operation of any radar is based on recording the entry of a car in a section and its exit from it. From there it calculates the average velocity of that input and that output.
What Waze does is notify you before you reach the entrance of that radar. A warning appears on the application screen to the left of the map. This warning will disappear once you exit the radar section.
If you are also exceeding the speed limit established by the radar, what Waze does is in addition to the map warning also alert you by a voice commandso that you are aware that you are breaking the speed limit.
