We just had our Baguio trip on new year’s eve and I noticed “speed” reminders at NLEX and the subsequent warning that we are being monitored via radar. Speeding on the expressway is so tempting specially if you want to test the mettle of your car, or when some dude just overtaken you.

I got news for you, the regulators at NLEX are not bluffing. No, I did not speed off and violated traffic guidelines but a colleague did. He just ignored the warnings and traveled at 140 km/hr exceeding the 100km/hr limit. As soon as he arrived at the toll gate, he was apprehended.

More than the risk of getting the ire of authorities, drivers, specially newbies, MUST observe speed limits and other regulations for safety reasons. Innocent lives has been affected by non conformance to safety rules.
