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

120 is fine. I do it everytime when we travel north.

Above that, and you're asking for trouble ................ or a traffic ticket.

Yup agree 120kph is ok since i always go at that speed on the sorento. Natitiketan lang talaga ako pag GS dala ko, i really need to be conscious of my speed using the GS.

Got tagged today SCTEX northbound before Concepcion exit...122kph. Anybody tried to contest the ticket with the following technicalities?

1. The deputized LTO giving the ticket was not the one that actually tagged you with the gun. Basically he is relying on hearsay and have no actual visibility on the offense.
2. Was the person using the radar gun trained to use it? When? Are there certifications he has to meet?
3. When was the radar gun last calibrated? By who?

THey can have my foreign license..I'll just get a replacement!

the question is were you really beyond the 100KM/h (+10% error rate) speed limit?

You may contest it as long as you want. You are entitled to do so, with your so called technicalities mentioned. One doesn't have to be an expert to point a radar gun to one's vehicle so that your speed can be measured.

It doesn't worth the time and stress and money to contest that violation, the 2 peso question is- are you running within the speed limit or not.

I am sure that the gun is not "calibrated" because when i was tagged last year, they told me that i was running at 147, but the truth is my speedometer is at 165kph. 😀

Lahat na ba ng expressway eh may speed limit?

Sa mga tutubos ng lisensya sa east avenue bawal ang nakatsinelas at naka shorts. Napilitan akong lumapit sa liason officer ( yan po ang tawag nila sa fixer ) dahil naka tsinelas ako at nakashort. Pag sa sctex, normally, sa ilalim ng tulay nakatago ang radar ( bandang concepcion upto Luisita. Sa NLEX di pa naman ako nahuli wag naman sana he he.

My luck has finally run out - got tagged earlier on my way home from Subic at NLEX Bocaue tollgate.

I didn't notice any enforcers by the side of the road, but I suspect it's after the Sta. Rita exit (when the highway goes from 2 lanes to 4) since that's the only time I went past 120. Will double check with my dashcam later if I find it.

How much is the fine again for NLEX speeding? And kailangan ba yung seminar?

Sa TPLEX ako sir nahuli, naka 2077 ako sa LTO East Ave. Wala ng seminar.

Approx 120KPH is the new speed limit (in the US)....

Bro,- katulad ng ginawa mo sa akin,- goto at barbecue at softdrinks lang ang pampakalma sa aking masamang loob dahil natiketan ako sa SCTEX nuong magkita tayo sa Manaoag...
