SLEX Speed limit

[meledson]

nagulat ako kaninang umaga na mayroong bagong traffic sign sa northbound lane ng SLEX about a kilometer before susana exit. Bilog na mayroong 80 sa nakasulat.

What! 80 lang ang speed limit! sana man lang ginawang 100.

Kung sa bagay, sa NLEX may mga portions na 80 lang din ang speed limit.

Now na hindi pa tapos ang construction ng SLEX. hindi nakakaantok kasi dapat aware ka, kung hindi, accidente ang resulta.

Nakakaantok mag drive kung solo mo ang daan, pero sa SLEX na medyo mataas ang volume ng mga sasakyan. hindi naman siguro. Pero, for me mabagal ang 80 kph.

At least, SLEX is not as long as NLEX nor SCTEx. but worried ako na baka mas mahal ang toll per km sa SLEX kaysa sa NLEX once na natapos.

di kaya dahil 80 kph lang is because of the construction?
afaik, yung stretch ng slex from filinvest to nichols is 100 kph.

[meledson]

Iyong traffic sign ay nasa tapos na parte ng SLEX.

Iyong traffic sign ay nasa tapos na parte ng SLEX.

ah ok.... kakaantok nga yon. hehehehehe.

[hotwheels]

sa hindi matapos na construction sa slex, hirap ka nga makaabot ng 60kph.
80 kph pa ang limit.........siguro para iwas sa aksidente sa daming barriers

[leiza25]

I think kaya 80 baka dahil sa construction. Kasi malabo ka naman talagang magpatakbo ng mabilis sa dami ng ginagawa, unless madaling araw ka bumiyahe. Kung 80 ang talagang impose na speed limit, good luck na lang.

[niky]

The speed limit is 60 in the areas where you have traffic contracting to a single lane between the barriers. But it should actually be lower.

[meledson]

mayroon ng line sa stretch na ito. 4 lanes Mula sa tulay before Caltex. SLEX northbound.

Typical ko dito ay 80 to 100 sometimes up to 120.

Unfortunately, hindi kasing kinis ang asphalt as NLEX or SCTEx. Pero much much better than Star toll way.

For the entire SLEX, there are only 2 radar guns that are avaiable...

[userfriendly]

any idea san located yung 2 radar guns?

[shadow]

^just follow the speed limit and you don't need to worry about the location of those guns.

Subject: New Traffic Rules on SLEX (South Luzon Expressway)

1. Speed limits - min 60 kph, max 100 kph, be careful to observe this
speed limit. May mga speed radar enforced strech sila sa SLEX. They have
speed radar with telescope which can see you hundreds of meters away
whether you're under or over speeding. You can break the rules on some
segment but better to observe it because they are really dead serious to
implement the law inside the SLEX.

2. Emergency Shoulders - don't pop out on the right and take this as the
faster lane. In some stretch, biglang may haharang sa iyo and you may
not be able to handle your brakes and accident may happen. They are that
crazy, believe me.

3. Yellow with White Lines approaching the exits - Go inside this line
kung e-exit ka na. Avoid abrupt swerving or riding on this lane kung
hindi ka e-exit sa next tollgate. Gustong-gusto ng PNCC men manghuli dyan.

4. Abrupt Change of Lanes - May mga PNCC men on pick-up trucks na
naka-monitor sa mga ilalim ng overpasses. Normally nanduon sila sa mga
may vantage view na kitang-kita yung stretch.

5. Littering - got an extra 1,000 pesos dun ka magkalat sa SLEX mas
maganda.

6. Checkpoints or Radar Enforced Segments - On the last post of the
Skyway in Bicutan, duon sa on and off ramp ng Skyway, may spotter dyan,
approx. 300 meters before Alabang viaduct southwards meron din dyan, sa
ilallim ng Susana heights overpass meron din dyan, sa ilalim ng Carmona
overpass, sa may Sta. Rosa, Sa may Cabuyao, Silangan and all the way to
Calamba. They may not be there all the time pero iyang mga lugar na yan
ang checkpoints.

7. Sa Skyway - they'll just compute the time it takes you to enter the
Skyway until the time na mag-exit ka. They've set standard times so kung
napabilis ka, may TVR ka agad.

8. Lights - Busted Signal lights and Brake lights, Dirty Plates are a
violation inside the SLEX. May TVR ka rin dyan.

9. Reckless Driving - Kahit saan naman bawal yan siyempre, pero kung
gusto nyong subukan puwede rin sa SLEX.

10. Bribery - Never attempt to bribe those PNCC men, they know their
job. Period! Now, paano ka nila mahuhuli? Since they have telescope and
radios, they can see way, way far ahead and scan your speed of course if
you're
going under or over, they'll radio you on all exits plus dun sa roaming
enforcers nila. Magugulat ka na lang they'll send you on the side and
ask for your license and give you a TVR, lalo na sa exits. Pag-claim ay
problem rin because they'll send it to LTO East Avenue and after a week
mo pa matutubos yon.

IN THE FUTURE, they'll have disguised vehicle sa SLEX which is fully
equiped. You'll never know na huli ka na cause they'll just use their
high-speed cameras and get a front clear shot of you plus your car and
your plate number with speed written on it, dates etc, all digitally
encrypted. They make use of the LTO system to locate your address and send
it to you there.

correction lang sir, sa lto lipa ang tubos ng SLEX violations, hindi po sa QC....

[kotiko]

Passed by yesterday and today in SLEX, I think most people are following the 100kph rule although may ilan ilan rin na nasa 120kph at least.

[looks2008]

correction lang sir, sa lto lipa ang tubos ng SLEX violations, hindi po sa QC....

sa lipa pala.. i stand corrected. anyway, may mga nahuli na ba?

[impulzz]

any idea san located yung 2 radar guns?

mobile radar guns, so kung saan trip ng enforcer dun sya, then radyo na lang sa mga exits yung matutukan nila.

ang di ko maintindihan kung baket sa lipa city ang tubos kung mahuli, parusa ba yun sa nahuli nila???
