email set to Waze CCP contact today:

I'm reaching out to inquire about Waze's speed limit data. We're in the process of overhauling our speed limit data management, and are interested in validating our speed limit records against yours to flag potential issues. Is this something that may be possible through an API endpoint or data export?

From Waze:

Thanks for contacting us about the Speed limit data. Unfortunately, we do not have a data spreadsheet or the like that keeps speed limit data. Waze maps are edited and maintained by a community of Waze map editors, a group of volunteers who help ensure that the information is up-to-date and accurate. Depending on your rank in the Waze Map editor, you may be able update the speed limit on a specific segment. If you’d like to make a suggestion or change to the map, we’d be glad to put you in touch with a community leader; simply reply to this email and let us know. Best regards, The Waze Team
