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

In one of the episode of the mythbusters, i remember jamie and adam doing all sorts of stuff like putting up reflective mirrors, painting the whole car black etc.... just to evade the speed gun but to no avail.

GH, accurate pa rin ba yan kunwari may tint yung kotse sa windshield?

Window tint may reduce the laser/radar signals before it reaches the detector (in the same way it reduces signal to e-tags/easy-trip).

RADAR - metalized window film may reduce radar signals by reflection.
LASER - window film may reduce the amount of laser light by reflecting or absorbing it.

Although my car is tinted, it does not use metalized tints nor do I have my front windshield tinted. This maximizes the potential reception from the front and I can still get radar signals from sides and rear (although I do not know the degree of signal reduction from my sides and rear).

Kindly note that the MYTHBUSTERS episode was based on RADAR based speed traps. They did not cover LASER based systems.

yung mga nasa Commonwealth and Macapagal, once they detect you overspeeding, they will pull you over ba agad?

[yebo]

At least someone else is using a V1 too (aside from me)...

sir gh san meron nyan, and how much?

[ghosthunter]

sir gh san meron nyan, and how much?

LINK: Valentine One radar and laser detectors

$400

Locally, I don't know if anyone is selling it here.

The problem with V1, they haven't released any updated products for a couple of years as compared to other brands. So does it still compare well with the competition?

yep, pull over na agad yan sir cb.

[Excalibur]

yep, pull over na agad yan sir cb.

Sana yung mga motor na pa ekis-ekis ang takbo at sobrang tulin ay bantayan din nila di yung madalas di na pinapansin overspeeding ng mga motor.

[Retz]

Nasa right most lane ang motor hindi mapapansin talaga.

Hindi gaano "napeperahan" usually mga jejebikers. Kamot ulo din defense ng mga hung hang na'to. :D

On NLEX yesterday, an LC100 (with bike rack and bike) came barreling down the road at full speed. Ayun, huli siya sa tollgate (kala niya lusot siya with his ECTag). :police:

Last week, it was a Porsche driven by a elderly man who was being ticketed at the EC tag lane as well.

The radar guys seem to be picking good hiding spots as it's two weeks in a row that I've seen them apprehending at the toll gate with no patrol vehicles seen from the side (unless it's the one i saw parked at the opposite side of the highway, or they changed their unmarked vehicles already).

[CVT]

andun pa din. sa nlex going north they normally position at the flyover at either mexico or angeles. going to manila usually at under balagtas exit overpass.

at sctex, for the last 4 trips i made north, the vehicle with the radar is positioned under the last overpass before tarlac city exit. nahuli nga ako last friday, just when i was already cruising down saka pa nahuli. i was cloccked at 128kph.

hassle grabe. i was at lto today at 1pm, was let in at 1:30pm, my number got called at 2:30pm, paid the fine 5 minutes later (P1,277.36), waited till 3pm for the exam, then seminar (video actually) at the same time. finally got my license back at almost 5pm.

i need a radar detector/jammer!

^ dun sa building to the right of the back gate. was not a real seminar. halfway through the written exam (i was actually finished and had submitted my answer sheet already) they showed this video about lto, traffic rules, seat belt law, etc. the video lasted maybe 30 minutes. they did not even checked the exam, even allowed others to just copy the answer sheet of those who finished early or seat mates. inang yan, pinagisipan ko pa yung ibang questions kasi medyo vague yung choices tapos papakopya lang pala sa iba hahaha! buseeeet!

Welcome to the club 1277.36, bro...

So, nakita mo na rin ang mga patabaing baboy na tutulug-tulog sa Adjudication Department?

At, napanood mo rin ang pirated DVD copy ng Asiong Salonga sa second floor, habang naghihintay ng result ng exam?

Nadale na ko dyan one time sa Macapagal. May nadaanan ako grupo ng MMDA na may radar sa bandang Coastal Mall kaya pag lampas ko ayun, harururot na ko. Ang hindi ko alam, meron pa pala isa dun sa bandang Shell/Jolibee. Anak ng tokwa, malayo pa lang ako 3 na agad ang humaharang sa daan. 98KPH daw takbo ko. Php2,500.00 penalty plus seminar. Binigyan ko na lang ng 500petot para iwas abala. Sabi ng officemate ko, pag sa MOA ka nagwowork papalampasin ka daw ng mga ungas. Ang tanong ko lang dito, effective pa din ba ung gamit nila radar kahit sa gabi? Di ba un maaapektuhan ng mga headlights? TIA

ikaw ba club president?

madami din palakad akong nakita. may escort, wala pa 5 minutes bayad na sila tapos walang exam o seminar. meron din dun na mismo sa adjudication inabot na yung license nya, pinahanap na lang sa releasing sa taas. danda ng ngiti nung baboy sa counter eh, ngiting naka-jackpot.

[Manilablock]

Dapat kasi itaas ung speed limit ng hanga 80kph, ang hirap i-maintain ng 60kph.

lalo na kung meron kang masususndan na mga cars/motor na naka pwesto sa overtaking lane with the speed less than 60kph.

Ung speed na 60kph para sa mga bus/truck lang dapat.

Ikaw nga ang ino-nominate ko bro.

Dahil ako,- "sumpa ko sa sarili,- hinding-hinding-hindi na... "... :hysterical:

Sayang ang mahigit kalahating araw ko sa mga hungh*ng na iyan sa LTO Main....

Doon nga sa dulong building bago mag-seminar (at mag-exam),- may nakausap akong naghahanap buhay na nagtitinda ng mga sugpo at alimango,- ide-deliver daw niya sa mga taga-roon.... Aba e, ang sabi ko,- damihan ninyo ho ang aligi (sabi niya iyon nga raw ang gustung-gusto ng mga put3),- para madali sila (sa pagtatrabaho!)...

Weird kanina sa star toll. I was running around 110 to 120 km/hr. At Batangas City exit after I gave the card and payment to the cashier, she had a weird look on her face. She then reread her screen for a few seconds. Then she looked around. I think she was looking for someone possibly the guys who give tickets. No one was around. After another second, she gave me my change and receipt. Got out as soon as I could.

I read my receipt, did not notice anything strange on it.

Kung sakali bang mahuli ng overspeeding sa SLEX/NLEX/SCTEX/STAR, saan tutubusin ang license at standard lang ba ang penalty per highway?

[jansky]

pag ba bumagsak ka sa exam.. retake + nde issue ang license? or wlang bumabagsak tlaga

[yebo]

nlex and sctex sa lto main east avenue.
slex sa lto lipa.

sctex 1277.36 ang multa.
nlex di ko alam, ayaw ko malaman hehehe. pero isa lang naman nakita kong rate sa lto main so same din siguro ng sa sctex.
slex depende sa speed, may rate sila depending on speed. kahit 101kph lang dun tinitiketan e.

star, sorry 1 have no idea.

paano ka babagsak sa exam e nagko-kopyahan lang naman. piliin mo yung kokopyahan mo, yung mukhang smart
