65KM/H speed limit on pickups, vans, omnibuses and goods vehicles

[pugboy]

is the classification for speed ranges based on T plate or based on weight ?
from above documents posted it would appear to be simply on weight mgw
therefore all double cab pickups except rangers could drive up to 80km

I thought all them new rangers were 3200 and hence require heavy T license to drive
and of course now drive 65km if speed limits based on mgw.

not sure if many of the ranger drivers do possess heavy T

[nervewrecker]

If u look at "c" as well..them maxi men hadda take it down to 65km too then?according to the law there.."vehicles constructed to carry more than 10 passengers"i wonder if the popo carrying they speedguns on the busroute

I think taxi's too iirc.

Oh great I have already been catching my ass to stay under 80 especially when tired so now to drive at 65 is even harder tbh I'm very worried some tiida will slam into the back of me or a government convoy will ram me off the road.
I say we all adhere to the law and drive at 65 In all 3 lanes bring the place to a halt.

If applied to Heavy T, large maxis and buses I'm ok. I've seen too many trucks and buses weaving in and out of traffic on the UBH & SHH as though they have Tiida stamped on the back.
As far as pickups go 80kph should be ok.

hilux for sale... ah walking now.

Might reach destination faster walking...

Speed guns causing more accidents, more people sleeping away behind the wheel because everything slow and mellow and taking too long now to reach your destination.

This is no joke, maintaining 80k after working whole day was tiring... I had to stop and get coffee cuz i swear it was tiring and hard to keep focus :/

I did this for 13 years, I tell u, if u not stimulated u will fall asleep. That is why I used to take the main road to go home. The continuous turns, stops, gear ups, and downs, engaged me in the roads so i kept some level of awareness.
I tried not to drink coffee, cause I needed to sleep in order to rest up for the next shift.

I could be however sleepy, once I over 140kmph, I safe behind the wheel.

If staying awake is such a concern, why not try a taxi service for those late shifts? Or car pool or something?

[TurboSingh12]

They should put the speed limit to 40km for every vehicle at that way they will be happy!

[*$kїđž!™]

The hilux tare is 1820 and the mgw is 2700....
This therefore is class 3 ...not class 4 ....
Therefore this is 80km

Look on the bright side, less chances for a clown to jump the highway and hit you head on while going home.

Evidence of this ?

The big question is:

You have a hott sh!t, do you:
A) Chance a $1000 speeding ticket.
B) Stay within the speed limit and buy a new pair of levi's.

[*KRONIK*]

Hire a taxi. Like I said if is that run, link up with some others and car pool, split the taxi fare.
You reaching safely should be you #1 concern.

How you going to carpool when you are the only one working the "tank farm" that night?

Alls I'm saying is, sometimes these guys have no other choice but to drive or "loss dey wuk"

I guess you can hire a car I these situations - but that can cost more than they are going to make for the shift

I am deeply concerned with men saying they need to speed to stay awake. Sleepy driving is worst than drunk driving and driving fast won't always overcome your sleepiness. So you want to speed, be sleepy and think you not putting everyone else at risk?

I agree that it is worse than drunk driving (from experience)

I think there needs to be some public education on this point

[dyna9275]

man ,65kmh sucks

[*$kїđž!™]

This speed limit on the SHH and UBH needs to be reviewed....it is very ridiculous.....
How can u drive a ranger at 65km. This is ridiculous......
I believe that it will be reviewed cause ansa will ensure the gov't changes this law...

[tr1ad]

65 is for heavy T, unless they change regs since I did driving test etc in 94

[BRZ]

If you drive a spaceship, have fun from now on at 65 kmph
