I can't seem to see any speed limit signs along the long stretch of Mandai road (Or is it only me?). Sometimes driving along at 70 and see heavy vehicles/buses overtake me doing ~70++

If no speed sign then means generally 50km/h loh.......if go faster just don't get caught loh....... [:p]

I wouldn't sweat it, law enforcement for speeding is very lax here!

 

Most cars often go at 70 on 50 roads, I was checking the One Motoring site, and there is pdf which gives speed limits for all roads in Singapore.

 

Speed Limits for all roads

 

Did you know Mount Pleasant Road is only 40km/h???? I often do 70 or 80 there!!!

 

I think the TP wants to follow our education system all drivers need to remember the speed limit of all the roads in singapore.

 

They should change their driving license test for all drivers to test if they know the speed limit....lol

In addition to the PDF, in the following link, road can be selected to see the speed limit.

The lowest of all speed limits in Singapore has always been 50 (and was never 60 in the recent decades at least). If one does not know the speedlimt of a road, the safest bet would be driving at 50 and keeping the car at the slowmost lane!

Instead of a single number (50, 60, 70, 80 or 90) they should put up a range. 1 number for lower and 1 number for upper. Unless your car's speed is controlled by a robot, it is impossible to constantly keep to a single speed. Having a lower range also serves as a warning to road hoggers who think that as long as below speed limit is ok (like 60kph on a 90kph highway)

oops, the speed limit is maximum speed at which you can drive and it never tells that you need to be constantly driving at that speed limit. Well, for the range, it is 0 to 50 km/hr in 50 km/hr road

that bring the most debated question again..if you are in lane one..what speed are you suppose to be at? The speed limit of the road or exceed the speed limit in order for you to over take..assume the car that you want to over take is travel at constant speed of 70km/hr (speed limit 70km/hr)

Overtake him by travelling faster lo. Even if go above the speed limit. Up to you to decide if you want to. If you want to keep within the speed limit and the car on second lane is travelling at the speed limit already then go back to the second lane since you are not doing any overtaking.

It's not a speed camera. Just a gadget to tell u your speed. That's all.

 

thats quite common esp at sharp turn

 

 

thats ok ,... unless you travel at 100 km/hr ... than they will standby an ambulance

Just like clementi ave 6 from pie. Also got this sign and as well in sentosa bridge

I sort of recall that for sentosa bridge, it's accompanied by an actual camera. I could be wrong.
