Google Maps' speed camera and speed limit alerts are expanding to users in India

Google has not officially published a list of countries that are receiving these features yet. Google Maps may be among the most widely used car navigation system in the world but there are a number of areas where Google could improve. Since acquiring Israel-based company, Waze in 2013, we’ve seen a whole raft of new features being brought to Google Maps. This looks set to finally change as Google Maps’ speed camera feature is rolling out to more countries worldwide. According to a report by Android Police, Google Maps users in Denmark, Poland, and the UK have started reporting that the Google Maps speed trap feature is now live for them.
