The Trailer Past Our Car - Singapore - Are drivers of big vehicles going too fast on expressways?
Hey are big..! intimidating..! and thunder down the expressway at breakneck speed!!! ...Singapore,Singapore -Electric New Paper -Oct 30, 2006: -- Ask motorists and they are likely to recount the fury of the many trailers, lorries and buses that cross their paths every day - some kicking up sand in their vehicles' faces, literally... And the most common observation is that these heavyweights on wheels break the speed limit regularly... Take the recent experience of 38-year-old motorist Martin Lim. He was driving along West Coast Highway near Pasir Panjang on 16 Oct, close to a lorry that he estimated was going at 100kmh. That's 40kmh above the stipulated speed limit displayed at the back of the lorry... Furthermore, the lorry was in the extreme right lane, which is supposed to be for cars travelling at higher speeds and overtaking... (Picture by Jonathan Choo - Tight fit: Heavy vehicles take up all three lanes of the West Coast Highway and put the squeeze on other road suers. The extreme right lane is for cars going at higher speeds and overtaking)
