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

[yuichi]

napansin ko medyo naghigpit na sila ngayon. daming hinaharang sa bocaue toll area last sunday. buti hanggang 120kph lang ako non. ilan ba talaga maximum speed na allowed nila?

[170kphlang]

i think may ganito ng thread pero ok lang para maupdate tyo mga tsikoteers..

and heads up pala para na din sa ating lahat, kung dati ang paraan nila ng paghuli sa mga speedfreaks (kasali ako dito) ay yung pickup nila na bumibiyahe sa right lane ng mabagal (around 70-80kph) at nkapark sa taas ng mga bridges ng mga exits while the hood is up (pretending na nasiraan), ngayon ang bago nilang style is pretending to be na nasiraan sa gilid ng highway na private car or kasabwat yung kunyaring nasiraan na habang tinutulungan nila. so just in case makakita kayo ng nakatabing sasakyan na nasiraan better slow down to 100kph just to be sure, better slow down than pay the penalty and the hassle sa pagtubos ng lisensya sa east ave.

[boyscout]

SLEX naman parang wala ng nanghuhuli kahit sa skyway.

[zman]

Is it really that difficult to stick to 100kph and below?

[onedayoldchick]

kung sa tingin niyo nagspeeding kayo. may naka try na kaya magexit ng bocaue? tapos pasok ulit tollgate? db may barrier seperating vehicles from north and from bocaue. may nagbabantay din kaya banda dun sa part na yun?

[Syuryuken]

Tama si zman para hindi na rin malagay sa panganib ang ibang motorista.

yesterday, I saw this guy apprehended at bocaue toll plaza going southbound. Im not sure what the violation is but it seems a speeding violation since yun lang ang alam ko na pwede nila na ilagay na violation. Since medyo mahaba pila sa toll, pinanonood ko sila.... After some time nagtaka ako kasi kumuha na ng wrench yun isa tapos binabaklas na yun plaka nung kotse.....

Is that allowed ba? I mean kahit nga LTO hindi basta basta nagbabaklas ng plaka di ba?

mitsubishi lancer yun kotse (pizza) and Im pretty sure hindi naman nagsasakay ng pasahero yun driver. Anu-ano ba ang violation na pwedeng baklasin ang plaka mo?

Pwede bang magbaklas ng plaka ang NLEX officers? Im just curious kasi kung allowed ba sila magbaklas ng plaka?

[roger_jonv]

All traffic violations are being implemented in all expressways. Including special laws due to Limited Access Area provisions like no pedestrians at the hi-way, no loading and unloading, etc. The logical explanation why the patrol officers were removing the plate number of the apprehended vehicle was because the driver can't produce any driver's license or the driver refused to surrender his driver's license.

[locoroco777]

overspeeding yan malamang kaya na apprehend....

madami na ko nakitang ganyan....sa lahat ng araw ng aking pag dadrive wala yatang beses na hindi ako dumaan sa nlex....hehe

so tip lang mga sir....pag going kayo ng southbound pag malapit na sa bocaue exit pagkatapos nung curve after petron mag slow down na kayo...may mga multong umaga na may hawak ng speed around dun....

[elijahpaul]

yup, tama si sir locoroco777. watch out pag malapit na bocaue exit. i'm not sure kung yung mga CCTV nila e radar-equipped pero slow-down na kayo pag nakakita kayo.. nahuli narin ako minsan overspeeding jan. 1,500 penalty (as Reckless Driving) plus nakakainis na seminar with exam.

eLoW GuYz...

Sa mga laging bumabyahe ng North at mahilig lumampas ng konti sa MAX speed limit saan-saan ba yung mga portionna kung saan ay nagche-check sila ng speed limit ng mga sasakyan..? Sana ay maituro nyo naman sa akin ang inyong mga munting sekreto...

i have never been cited for speeding yet. i normally go at 140 kph at nlex (mas strikto sila and also more traffic there) and 160 kph at sctex, overtaking the nlex and sctex patrol cars without slowing down and i had never been cited for speeding. basta gawin mo lang in a safe manner di ka nila huhulihin. pag overspeeding ka make sure you are not weaving in and out or making "hail mary passes". i have seen cars stopped at the toll gates by the nlex and sctex traffic enforcers and those were cars that were driving haphazardly. I think someone reported them, siguro may na-cut ng alanganin kaya nireport o talaga namang parang kitikiti kung magmaneho kaya napansin. me thinks as long as you do your fast driving without endangering other motorists then they will not give you a speeding ticket.

4 weeks ago i was at sctex going to sbma at 6:30 in the morning doing my usual 160 kph. then meron ako nakita sa rear view mirror ko about 2 km back going really fast. "cayenne ba yun?" true enough it was a cayenne, it overtook me like i was parked hahaha! it must have been doing close to its top speed (240kph?). it went pass me so quickly i did not even had time to read the plate number!

[renzo_d10]

Pabago bago po yung puwesto nila, syempre para hindi matandaan ng mga tao. Basta makakita ka ng nakaparadang puting pick-up/van sa gilid, sila yun. Karaniwang walang marka ito upang hindi paghinalaan. Pero baka pag nakita mo yun, huli na ang lahat. Kaya huwag ka na mag-exceed ng speed limit kung wala ka naman pambili ng speed radar protector or wala kang mabilis na mata.

MaNy TnX ..!

[cocoy_01]

They say, radarmen are at bocaue exit South bound, yung sa north ang alam ko lang yung obvious na mahabang tulay.

As per the speed limit na 100kph, 120 ang alam kong parang margin from speeding. More than that may huli na.

Pag alangan ka at baka may abangers sayo, take dau paexit at huwag sa dulo if pa north or bocaue taas ka pag pa south.

[chua_riwap]

langya palakihan ng fonts ah......

just stay w/ the speed limit. di ka na nahuli, safe ka pa.

[erick_214]

Thank you very much for the reply GuYz huh...

*YeBo: Thanks for the trip...I'll do that as well

*ReNzO: hEhEhE, mukhang copy mo lang yung font ko huh...Saan ba nakakabili ng speed radar protector tsaka nasa magkano kaya ito?

*CoCoY: I usually do 120Kph, pag sa 90Kph kasi dyan pa lang pumapasok sa 5th gear yung matic ko eh, pag 100Kph naman parang ang bagal ng takbo ko dahil yung mga kotse eh umoobertake lang sa akin. Pag sa 120Kph naman parang tamang speed lang na umobertake sa kanila...

*Chua: I would like to kaso nga lang sobrang boring pag sa 100Kph lang, mas maganda sana kung taasan naman nila yung speed limit kahit na 140Kph(max) and 90Kph(min)...

I wanna drive fast pero ayoko naman yung papalit-palit ng linya and I still do the proper lane changing procedure...Yun nga lang talaga boring masyado yung 100Kph...

So pag may tulay ba eh automatic na may nagbabantay? hanggang anong oras kaya sila nagchecheck ng speed limit ng mga sasakyan?

You can buy radar/laser detectors from online shops. Price will vary with detector model.

The speed patrols operate only in the daytime. Usually 8am onwards, from what I observed. So if you are early enough, like 6am, it is possible to run the length of NLEX/SCTEX at 160 to 220 kph without getting "tagged". I have done a few Manila to Subic runs that take only 1 hour.

[renzo_d10]

Yung kay GH, nasa 14k. Haha. Pero accurate naman.

For sure walang mang-dedetect sa gabi, kaya safe ka sa goons, pero hindi ko alam kung safe pa para sayo tumakbo ng 120kph+ ng wee hours.

On the NLEX-southbound, the speed patrols usually stay within the last 3 exits before the tollbooth, typically half hidden behind a bush so you will not spot them from a distance.

On the NLEX-northbound, I haven't yet found them during my runs.

On the SCTEX, they always change their position, but their regular spots are marked with tents on the side of the road. But typical places would be after a blind rise (example, hill or bridge) in the expressway so you will not spot them until it's too late. Sometimes they would also stay at the overhead "bridge" crossings for those heading to Tarlac.
