just how hard is it to comply with the LAW!?

overspeeding?tapos tinted plates pa?

i dont wanna be a killjoy. i also hate the 100kph limit. but come on..its the freakin law.

tapos dadagdagan pa ng tinted plates?

hay.sooo disappointing. magrereklamo tayo about our politics..economy at kung anu ano pa ang sinisisi.but tayo simpleng batas di masunod?

and to all who have tinted plates...GREETINGS!!!> http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24938

well said sir glenn...

Curious lang po. Does a speed trap take a picture of a particular overspeeding vehicle? Can it detect multiple overspeeding vehicles at a given time? Hypothetical lang, what if may kasabay akong auto na kamukha nung sa kin tapos overspeeding siya, posible bang ako yung mapagbintangan? Or what if may convoy ng mga 10 auto na lahat tumatakbo ng 130 kph, madedetect ba silang lahat?

[thunderitik]

hi everybody tlaga ganun na pala sa NLEX buti hindi na tyempuhan ako.
kasi madalas nag over speeding ako 100 - 180 tumatakbo ako ...

[thunderitik]

Pero hindi naman me balasubas speed adik lang ako pati sa exit nga eh nagcornering ako ng 100 - 120. mmh ginagawa ko lang ito pagmaluwag ako !

[thunderitik]

May mga driver talgang speed demon pero hangang speed lang sila hahaha walang diskarte porke malakas ang kargada mga ahas kung magover take ako naman maingat ako kahit over speeding.pero dapat yung speed limit eh tangalin nila mula paanu pa yung pinaganda nilang daan. kahit 190 hahatakin ko yung 1994 nissan super salon hahaha joke lang

for me di bagay implement mga laws na yan, no 1 na dahilan, "pasaway" drivers ang mga pinoy. left lane for overtaking only? naku, kahit 80kph nasa left lane eh.i make use of all d lanes, it takes a lot of time 2 wait for a "pasaway" driver to give way for you to overtake than 2 just simply swerve on d other lane, make sure lng na front and back is clear of any NLEX patrol unit. eh kung mgbrake k p additional fuel consumption p yun since you have to accelerate again to gain speed, haha! no. 2, majority satin mga speed freaks, 100kph? nakaka-antok yun amp!!! no. 3, e2 na nga at ang laki ng binabayad mo sa tollgate ng NLEX tapos huhulihin k p? for your safety daw? eh ang laki nman ng toll fee, kayang kaya nila gumastos kahit everyday may major or minor accident, yung mga patrol 2loy nghahanap na lng ng huhulihin kaysa dati na mg assist lng (gusto ng meryenda d b?) btw, ayaw nila ng 300 or 400, 500 p tlga gusto! no. 4, d road is widened to lessen traffic, nahalata ko kac, simula na maging traffic discipline zone yan, 2-3 lanes lng sa left ginagamit, para bang nag-aalangan gamitin yung ibang lanes, sayang nman yung ibang lanes, ngkukumpulan sa isang side. haha opinion ko lng

3, e2 na nga at ang laki ng binabayad mo sa tollgate ng NLEX tapos huhulihin k p? for your safety daw? eh ang laki nman ng toll fee, kayang kaya nila gumastos kahit everyday may major or minor accident, yung mga patrol 2loy nghahanap na lng ng huhulihin kaysa dati na mg assist lng (gusto ng meryenda d b?) btw, ayaw nila ng 300 or 400, 500 p tlga gusto!

We've tried several times to negotiate with patrol units with our trucking services (dati, biglang gulat kasi mga suki nun nang biglaang umonti karga naman), but none gave in. Gano po katotoo chief itong statement nyo? For all I know, napakadisiplinado ng mga patrol units ng NLEX. "Areglo" seems like an alien word for them. Proven and tested, we never met one that let our truck drivers pass without taking a violation ticket before. Kaya nga ngayon kahit onti karga sumusunod na talaga.

-but if we don't do anything, things would just degrade to sheer chaos. better start now with change for the better than never.

left lane for overtaking only? naku, kahit 80kph nasa left lane eh.i make use of all d lanes, it takes a lot of time 2 wait for a "pasaway" driver to give way for you to overtake than 2 just simply swerve on d other lane, make sure lng na front and back is clear of any NLEX patrol unit.

-spoken like your handle. ugh. i hope you don't endanger innocent motorists along the way. i'd hate to get caught up in your escapades.

eh kung mgbrake k p additional fuel consumption p yun since you have to accelerate again to gain speed, haha! no. 2, majority satin mga speed freaks, 100kph? nakaka-antok yun amp!!!

-but going higher than 100 has been proven to increase risks exponentially. besides, 80kph would be the most economical speed. and that's why you anticipate the actions of everyone around you.

no. 3, e2 na nga at ang laki ng binabayad mo sa tollgate ng NLEX tapos huhulihin k p?

-if you violated a rule dun, then expect to be apprehended. as simple as that. kaya di umaasenso 'pinas eh kasi basta lusot kahit mali, sige lang.

for your safety daw?

-di lang DAW. FOR YOUR SAFETY...AND EVERYONE ELSE'S. period.

eh ang laki nman ng toll fee, kayang kaya nila gumastos kahit everyday may major or minor accident, yung mga patrol 2loy nghahanap na lng ng huhulihin kaysa dati na mg assist lng (gusto ng meryenda d b?) btw, ayaw nila ng 300 or 400, 500 p tlga gusto!

-like what was posted above, areglo is a foreign word for them. they follow the rules and regulations. and they make sure that the people using it would do so too.

no. 4, d road is widened to lessen traffic, nahalata ko kac, simula na maging traffic discipline zone yan, 2-3 lanes lng sa left ginagamit, para bang nag-aalangan gamitin yung ibang lanes, sayang nman yung ibang lanes, ngkukumpulan sa isang side. haha opinion ko lng

-the shoulder is not an extra lane, and it's NEVER for passing/overtaking. it's there for emergencies like for repairing a flat tire, pulling over at a portalet station for bio-break, etc.

[quiksie]

haha marunong ba kayo magdrive at magfollow ng mga simpleng batas. Mas maganda nga flow ng traffic kesa dati daming sumisingit at nagsnakedriving kasi walang speed limit. Ingat nalang yun mabibilis mag maneho diyan

Spoken like a true caring driver! It's about time we all care about the lives of all, including the property you use!

[boybi]

the NLEX patrols would just rather let you go on a warning than take a bribe.

[ILuvDetailing]

pero dapat yung speed limit eh tangalin nila mula paanu pa yung pinaganda nilang daan. kahit 190 hahatakin ko yung 1994 nissan super salon hahaha joke lang

Thats why we have a speedlimit so that it will lessen the accidents. The main reason they renovated NLEX is for a more smoother flow of traffic, not for speeding.

[recklus]

d ko rn ma bribe mga loko eh, pero nung 2nd tym kasama ko pinsan ko n dad ko, cla kumausap, pumayag ng 600 nga lng. ok na rn sakin yun, since yung experience ko sa qc LTO pasakit tlga, tas mga 500 dn gastos for 150 DTC offense tsaka fixer na 250 para wala na seminar, yung remaining 100 napunta sa gas. yung mga sumunod na trip namin ngdala na pinsan ko lagi ng DILG id nya para nakasabit sa rear view mirror. lusot na lagi!

[nugundam93]

[claRkEnt]

basta ba hulihin din nila ang mga slow drivers at the wrong lane eh. :lol:

agree!!! i admit, i sometimes exceed sa speedlimit kapag naiinis ako sa sinusundan ko. nakaka-init kasi ng ulo yung uneducated drivers na babad sa left lane running below 80kph! dami namang signs and reminders (even radio commercials!!!). I dont know bakit di makaintindi!

[moipogi]

Just to update this thread, just came from Baguio, and nahuli ako sa speed trap. While I did not contest the ticket, I'd just like to say that 100kph is really far too slow for the NLEX. You have a four lane, perfectly surfaced road, and I think 120-140 is an acceptable speed limit. You've improved the highway, but you have the same speed limit as the old NLEX. I think there's some leeway here since 120 at the new NLEX is way safer vs 100 in the old.

Anyways, magkano ba yung fine sa speeding? Went to the LTO website and wala akong makitang speeding. The closest was disregarding traffic signs siguro, which is P150. Sana wala nang seminar. And I hope my license is available na this Thursday, since nakalagay sa ticket na dapat within 72 hours pupunta na ako sa LTO.

Well at least nalaman ko yung top speed ng APV ko with 8 people + baggage + pasalubong: speed trap verified at 136kph.

[boybi]

although the speed limit is set at 100kph, i've heard that they allow up to 120kph for passenger vehicles.

[mazdamazda]

last Sunday, coming from Mimosa... ang daming nahuli for overspeeding... to note that I was driving at 100kph all the time (even sa open system)... mahal na ang gasolina.

though kung naka EC Tag ka... hindi ka mahuhuli.

[batang_raon14]

SPEEDING is highly equal to reckless driving if you're caught. That ruins your driving records if someone digs it up.

[moipogi]

I would contest the LTO equating speeding with reckless driving. Reckless driving, at least in my view would be those guys using the shoulder for overtaking and those snaking around the highway like it was one giant slalom. Also, add those slowpokes who continue to use the passing lane and refuse to give way to faster vehicles.
