NLEX, SCTEX, Over-Speeding, Speed-Radar [MERGED Threads]

**mazdamazda** · May 30th, 2005 06:42 PM

The MNTC has started to apprehend motorists violating the 100kph maximum speed limit on the closed-system portion of the NLEX.

They would apprehend the said motorist upon approaching the Bocaue tollplaza (going to Manila).

This cannot still be implemented in the open-system portion since there exits of the said portion doesn't have a toll gate.

How do they do this? There are imbedded and fixed speed traps along the stretch of the NLEX. Once you "trigger" the said traps, a camera (placed around 40 ft overhead) will take your license plate numbers.

Nice. I hope that they also implement the "leftmost lane for overtaking only" rule.

that would be good, since there are fellow motorists who love to hug the overtaking lane, as if they are the only traveler on the road.!

Sunod na lang tayo sa tamang speed sa nlex sctex guys, di yung kinakabisado saan yung mga "radar" na yan. Para safe sa kalsada and makakauwi ng maayos.

Been there done that, drive an FD at 200kph years back, huli then tutubusin mo sa lto e. ave. Sobra hassle, never again. Now 90kph ok na ako , cruising with spotify.

Mga sir may leeway din ba na binibigay sa SLEX and STAR Toll for speeding kagaya ng sa NLEX and SCTEX na pwede hanggang 120?

**mbt** · May 30th, 2005 06:52 PM

solution: drive at 200 kph so that all that will register in the camera would be a blur. bwahahahahaa (just kidding)

nahuli ka mazdamazda ano? hehehe

di naman... nasa open-system portion naman ako lagi (balintawak to bocaue). so medyo safe pa ako. hehe.

got that info from an officemate (who travels pampangga to manila daily).

btw, I've already memorized the locations of all speedtraps within the open-system. what I usually do is to slow down before the speed trap then accelerate again afterwards. the portion of the speedtrap has a horizontal tar strip across it. then there's the 40-ft camera tower (and even a power room) in the shoulder portion.

the 100kph speed limit is such a bore (especially on long drives). I agree with kulit, it should be around 120-140kph.

Hahaha. gusto ko yung solution ni sir mbt. Sana naman taasan nila kahit konti yung maximum speed limit. 120-140 kph man lang sana. Mazdamazda, thanks for the warning. Mahilig pa naman ako mag speed sa NLEX.

boring nga 100kph, dapat taasan nila kahit na 120kph man lang.

so pag nahuli ka ano gagawin? multa? how much? if you get caught in more than 1 speed trap does that mean you pay more? or pareho din ang penalty?

dapat they should also penalize those that drive at less than 99kph para aat least kahit na 100kph lang takbo e wala ka na need mag-overtake!
