warning, dun be too happy if you didn't get fined on the way

[Tom]

wow. interesting story.

i just received a summon in my mailbox.
158km/h at KM41 from on the NS highway. should be somewhere upper kulai exit.

RM150

but i did an average of 170km/h all the way to kl then. phew.

yes, there are unmanned speed detectors since ages ago.
you don't look for opposite traffic headlight flashes as a warning or see the policemen shooting you with the detector anymore, you wait for the summons.

in malaysia, they use the passive system to slow the traffic unlike singapore, with their active system(warnings and etc)

just becareful of bridges, and places where there are more plants/trees.

also, places where there are more good boys slowing down or going slow. or when you feel something isnt right.

but this is really interesting about that article you posted:
"Whenever he's in Malaysia and driving at the speed limit, he jots down the number plates of cars that travel faster than him.

Then, he goes to search engine www.catcha.com.my. It allows drivers to check their car registration numbers to see if they have outstanding summonses.

True enough, he found that most of the cars that sped past him ended up with speeding tickets, showing how efficient the speed traps are."

wow. i can't imagine myself practising that...

cheers

If there are no warnings then it's quite bad. I mean the point of a speed camera is also to deter the person from speeding right? If there no signs who's going to slow down?

 

[Racebred]

whether or not there are signs, those who want to speed will still speed. Anyways i believe if you speed in malaysia, and they officially fine you, it's only right to accept the fine (pay up or not is another matter hahahah) since we did speed. I'm thankful that there's such a system in place, where u can pay if you want to speed. in other stricter countries, you'll lose your license already.

But again given 10 summon tickets in one go is quite siong leh.. :furious:

Still better than losing your license... If you guys take the side roads going up to Malacca then less chance of speed traps... besides, I think the trip through the side roads are much more entertaining... can really push your car. hehe

10 tickets does not warrant changing the registration... maybe if it was closer to 50?? 100??

No need so many la. Most of the summon we kena will be in the range of RM150-170. Taking the exhange rate of 2.2, about 15-20 summons enough liao. Just try not to bid for those hot numbers and you will be home free.......... :laughlik:
