Current Version 0.12.0 (10/07/2022)

Consult your local GC about the local rules of adding speedlimits to your country

This script is an extension to make inputting the new speedlimits easy, by adding graphic speedsigns right above the input fields.

For the current list of supported countries, visit the following link to the GreasyFork script: https://greasyfork.org/nl/scripts/13774-wme-speedhelper

If you want your country added to the list, contact your local GC and have him/her add the following info:

  • country name & Waze abbreviation (use this bookmarklet)
  • The list of possible speeds as displayed on the roadsigns
  • Kph or mph?
  • an image of how a roadsign looks like. Only needed if it isn’t a red circle with a white background and black text :slight_smile:

This script has now moved to Github!
If anyone has an idea to make this script better, or has updates to the country list, please visit the Github page

Kind regards,

Gert

Great idea! Thanks ! :smiley:

  • country name & Waze abbreviation = Switzerland - 216 (I think that’s it? Took the same number that Toolbox had)
  • The list of possible speeds as displayed on the roadsigns = 30-40-50-60-80-100-120
  • Kph or mph? = Kph
  • an image of how a roadsign looks like. Only needed if it isn’t a red circle with a white background and black text :slight_smile: = red circle is ok

Thanks, it will be added in the next version :slight_smile: The “code” is in the XX format, Switzerland’s code is SZ (just found out myself :D)

Hmm… does not work for me somehow…
Still says:
WME Speedhelper 0.2.0
Your country is currently not supported yet. If you want me to add it, follow this link and look for the “missing country?” section in the description.

Tried reinstalling. Cleaned cache… restarted browser…

Odd, I just went into my Tampermonkey dashboard and forced an update on the script. It changed to 0.2.1 and it was working. Why do you still have 0.2.0, it’s not letting you update ?

11

Found the reason :slight_smile: The Waze abbreviation for Latvia is LG, don’t know where these abbreviations come from…

Script is updated to 0.2.2

Tip: in order to get the current country code, just use this bookmarklet. Drag the code to your bookmarks and click the bookmark to execute it while you have the Waze Editor open. It will open a message with the current country code.

javascript:alert('Current country code: '+Waze.model.countries.top.abbr)

On one of the Benelux Slack channels a suggestion was made to enhance this script (credit to klaasdesmedt): the addition of one or more custom messages for a country to remind people of certain speed limit-related issues. This came after the request for a different sign for “woonerf” (= acreage) in the Netherlands to indicate 15 km/h.

I’d personally prefer that those messages can be removed when I’ve read them though, as they might take up valuable screen space.
