Little detail is given about the new camera warning icons, but Apple says that they will let users see where individual cameras are located on the map.
Maps lets you know when you're approaching speed cameras and red-light cameras along your route. You can also see where individual cameras are located on the map.
It's not clear if this feature will be limited to select areas, countries or will have a wide rollout, and it does not appear to be implemented in the initial iOS 14 beta as an examination of the Maps app with various routes did not display icons for traffic cameras.
Apple Maps is gaining cycling directions, electric vehicle routing, and a new Guides recommendation that will help you find the best places to visit when taking a trip to a new location. Many of these features have not been added to the initial iOS 14 beta.

Yes. Exactly like Waze. Minus the Google.Soooo waze?
heres a shocking revelation, not speeding also means you avoid a ticket, ever think of that?
honestly this feature needs to be illegal. It’s not ok to point out speed cameras to help morons break the law more easily.
Actual fact: many places (including California) require red light cameras to be publicly disclosed and warning signs posted to ensure their job is safety, not revenue. Their job should to prevent you from running the light, everything else is secondary.It’s illegal in a lot of places here in the US as well.
Why? Several mapping apps already do this. I think it is a good feature.Seems dangerous to point out the speed cameras.
Where I live the cameras are put on problem intersections. I’ve seen people slam on the brakes, which can cause accidents because they were not paying attention and only notice them at the last second. I wouldn’t mind this because it helps prevent the brake-slamming yet still lets The intersection benefit from the reduced accidents.heres a shocking revelation, not speeding also means you avoid a ticket, ever think of that?
