SLEX Speed limit

[looks2008]

any idea san located yung 2 radar guns?

got it in another forum. #6 should answer your question.

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....

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.

[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???

[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?

[kinyo]

mahigit sandaan na daw nahuli (tv patrol news kahapon) ... dami yata yun ah?

[niky]

Probably over the course of a week. I don't see that many being apprehended.

Hopefully they'll continue to enforce the minimum limit. It's so much nicer when you don't have to avoid dilapidated vehicles doing merely 40 on the highway...

RE: Skyway. Too freaking dangerous. South of Bicutan the surface is very ripply, and if you drive at high speeds, it's too easy for a heave to push you sideways into the barriers.

pano pag conduction sticker pa lang? kita pa din?

pano pag conduction sticker pa lang? kita pa din?

Why? Are you intending to break the speed limit?

[userfriendly]

I wish they increase the speed limit to 110 or 120 kmh. 100 is just too slow. I can live with 100 kmh speed limit but I dont like it.

The thing that really annoys me are cars, trucks and jeeps that keep hugging the overtaking lane when they are running at 60 to 80 kmh and there are no cars infront of them. Pls move over and let others pass. Dont force us to overtake on the wrong lane! Fing idiots! I encounter these idiots every week both on SLEX and Star.

Its actually worse on the Star toll way from Lipa to batangas City. Overloaded trucks travelling at 40 kmh will back up traffic for a long while. Its dangerous to overtake bec its a single lane highway. STAR TOLL operators, pls pls pls apprehend or dont let over loaded trucks use your road.
