Briefing: Colorado’s New Speed Camera System Makes Waze Nearly Useless

Editorial Staff · 1 min read

The state of Colorado has introduced an automated vehicle identification system that employs several cameras to monitor and calculate the average speed of vehicles on the road.

When a vehicle's average speed exceeds the posted limit, the system generates a ticket for the driver, which raises concerns about the implications for navigation applications such as Waze.

As these apps often provide real-time speed data and route adjustments, the effectiveness of their guidance may be compromised by the new enforcement measures.
