Dark 5th Gear February 18, 2014 Share February 18, 2014 Yup, but by the time you see this, it's very near to the speed cam already How long it takes to reduce by 10km/h? ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atonchia Supersonic February 18, 2014 Share February 18, 2014 The camera triggers once exceed 85km/hr, so those cars must have forgotten to ease off the gas. Please don't drive at lane 1 if keeping to 70km/hr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cllee 2nd Gear February 18, 2014 Share February 18, 2014 Actually their design is quite misleading, you can see many new LED signboard of 80kph along KPE, which tend to attract drivers' attention and many drivers will happily follow the speed limit of 80kph. After that you will see the normal type of 70kph sign board appear in front of you which initially i tought wtf why LTA still not removed these old speed limit signboard? Then car was caught speeding at 84kph on the 1st day of Jan. wtf.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyminswift 1st Gear February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 On the KPE, there are a few stretches (think at least 3 each on northbound and southbound) that have those bold markings to warn people they are travelling along the bendy stretches. But not all such stretches are automatically 70km/h. Only the relatively "sharper" bends are 70km/h. I kena once recently on CNY weekend. I see the 70km/h markings and slowed down w/o braking (i.e. release accelerator and let it cruise) but i was still too fast (84km/h) when my car triggered the flash. I received the TP notice on 14 Feb (love letter? ) but only received warning advisory. During peak periods i think not a lot of people will trigger the speed camera bah. Its for those quieter stretches when people will try the speed limit + 10km/h and some people may be caught off guard since there arent many cars in front to help regulate their speed.

Jellandross Supersonic February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 Yup, but by the time you see this, it's very near to the speed cam already if you noticed, the 70kph sign in the northbound direction is only a very short distance right before the speed camera. if you didn't anticipate it, you'll either not slow down in time or have to brake abruptly.

Ahgong Supercharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 alamak ... the new 80kph speed limit is not applicable to the entire "stretch" of kpe? nope. otherwise, how to ambush you to collect fines? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfy3769 2nd Gear February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 i hate those stretch of expressway that change speed limit over a short distance.... eg. AYE, there is a few stretch that is 80 vs the norm 90.... .. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beehive3783 Turbocharged February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 Look at the lane markings.. you all will notice there are 2 part of the stretch where lane markings are marked with thick dotted line along the slight curve road.. the part of dotted line markings indicate where speed limit is at 70km/h and not 80km/h. The thick marker lines are cb one la.. they only start at bends AFTER the speed camera, by then it will be too late for any speedster to slow down.

Volvobrick Supersonic February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 Looks like it is just a means to raise more fund! After spending Bn's of dollars, LTA cannot even design/construct safe expressways with constant speed limits. The real accident spots have zero camera - PIE (towards Jurong) just after BKE exit, sharp BKE exit into SLE etc. The central barriers are always being repaired, sometimes the same repaired spot is hit again in a week!

Mllcg 3rd Gear February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 1 short expressway, 2 different limits. wtf? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondavvvtec 1st Gear February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 don't worry, normally car speedo is slower 5 to 10km than actual travel speed, 75km/h just nice how did you come to the fact that car speedo is slower by 5-10km/h? 2 yrs ago, i was caught exactly on the speed shown on my speedo when i received the letter from LTA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You received your summon already? just a while ago only.. In order to protect myself I am preparing the video to appeal against the case if require. As my friend got snapped when a speeding car which was closing behind him, appeal and failed. He don't have a camera so LLST paid the fine & accepted the DP. Wasted 1 hour to find/upload/download/backup the stupid file. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1zzinlrwUE Also, this is new camera, time & date cannot be set. Day 1 when I got the camera, couldn't on. Today went to exchange as the power cord was causing the problem. Went back home, set camera in place, time/date cannot be save. It goes back to default setting everything I switch off. haizz. wat a day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
