be practical la.

 

speed is impossible to enforce one la.

 

the only thing TP can implement in future is

 

1. chip that detect not on belt (like 2F2F)

2. chip that sense mobile frequency, (which means in future no mobile is allow when driving), once sense the frequency, it will communicate with satelite and it will take photo shot from air and deliver the image to TP HQ

3. Maybe blackbox, knowing you are going to have an accident ahead, record ur message after the tone (lol)

 

not bad idea indeed...but all this u mentioned...

Hope it never happens

else we most prob haf to end up paying for all this

I heard from my crazy fren that all cars will only be allowed into singapore if they convert the speedo to show only max 90km/hr. The electronic engine cut will also limit the car speed to max 90km/hr.

It was said that Japan has already limit their car speed to max 180km/hr and Germany car co voluntarily limit their super cars to max 280km/hr for safety reasons.

In Singapore there are no super highway that justify a much higher speed than 90km/hr.

So for the safety sake, it was suggested that all cars for Singapore market be electronic limited to 90km/hr.

This way, TP will no longer need to be deployed on overhead bridge to catch speeders. All car owners will feel safe that they will not exceed the speed limit and no need to watch out for police. So this will make the driving experience a safe and unstress one!

 

Can't be bothered to read the rest of the thread after reading the first few posts. How can anyone be so silly to believe such romours? I am sure you are not one of them. Btw, another friend told me that traffic police will make you perform a blow job on orang utang everytime you get caught speeding. Shall I open a new thread to post this?

 

To be honest singapre being the world's biggest exporter of used cars will not do that to create a uproar and unpopular policy.

I also heard from a crazy fren that all ppl checking thru at the immigration counter via land, air or sea must wear clothes that are in pure white!

 

The electronic sensor at the check-in counter will sense the 'whiteness' of the clothes and limit the 'lack of whiteness' to less than 5 % woven into the fabric.

 

This way, the MIW will no longer need to be deployed at various gahment organisation just to catch 'non-white' wearing immigration offenders or those sneaking out of this island with their millions!

 

All Sillyporens will feel safe that they will no longer have someone looking over their shoulders as long as they continue to wear WHITE!

One day when all cars can communicate with one another, then all cars can be synchronised on the road, in terms of acceleration, safety distance, etc automatically.

 

Then accidents will be greatly reduced man..

 

 

then don't make road, make conveyor belt. and we will be like sushi.. those rich people can be on red plate and the rest of you will be on normal plates

Hi all,

 

I am not going against anyone of you or supporting Liping24. Just that I remember in my NS days back in 1980's.

 

For those who had served in the army during your NS days, I believe that you had heard of such thing as fuel control device which were installed in all Military vehicles like 3 tonner, landrovers ...... etc. It reduce the amount of fuel into the engine and thereby control the speed limit of the vehicle to 60 KM/H. (during that time, the road speed limit is 50km/h for all roads and only 80 km/h for PIE & ECP, no such things like KJE, SLE...etc which is not build yet). The device was inplaced then and many drivers of such vehicles were all the time.

 

The story might be true to some extent if accidents continue to rise by such reckless drivers who are speeding all the time. They might not restrict to 90 km/h but the possibility of limit to 110km/h or 120km/h (given the fact that your are going into MY).

 

Let pray hard that TP and LTA do not go to such extend as to restrict our vehicle speed. It had been done before and could have happen again. (PS: I do not know about our current military vehicles. Do they still install such device into the veh?. Anyone wish to enlighten on this). If you have notice, our military vehicles still travels very slowly on the roads be it highway or normal roads.

 

Let not branded our poor friend (Liping24) and her friends . They could had heard from somewhere and trying to alert us through MCF forum.

hahaha...if that's the case. Alot of TPs will be jobless....retrenchment will be coming soon. Just wait and see.

[Megalord]

I do think that this is untrue, where the 3 tonners and landrovers are concerned. From what i understand, the only thing that limits the drivers going beyond their speed limit, is the SWD counter. Should it record a large increase in reading from what they signed in log book, may get into problems.

 

The 5 tonners had a "device" connected for that purpose, but i didn't really regard that as a device. That aside, it has the cruise control.

[Maxus-MIFA9]

Back then during my times in NS (1977 to 1979) it was installed. maybe as times goes by, newer device had been install to check the speed limit of the drivers.

 

I remember clearly, I floor the fuel pedal till the floor board and the vehicle is only at crawlng speed.

 

If I am not mistaken, SBS had also tried once back in the eighties and gave up after the drivers complain no power when overtaking or trying to avoid accident. They have no choice but to jammed on the brake hard which then, causes the passengers to fall inside the bus and injured.

[Tunge]

Precisely, it's something impractical as proven in the past and will never happen.

 

just the thought that all singapore cars will be limited to 90km/hr is simply ridiculous lor... then ambulance? fire engine? police vehicles? all also limit to 90 km/h? the ridiculous thing is not that TP might limit speedo on cars , the ridiculous thing is she say speedo will be limited to only 90km/h

[Megalord]

I can understand why you floor the accelerator, that its still like crawling, but you can actually approach your friendly unit technician for rectification.

 

Do you have any idea what that device ran on? Electronic or mechanical? Heard of cases that some drivers back then mistook a partially jammed fuel cut off valve for a fuel limiter though...
