Fined for speeding in PIE

[Bommii]

Just received summon for speeding along PIE last week.

Fine $130 and 4 demerit points

 

I know i was cruising just below 100km/h on PIE on that day and some sections of PIE the speed limit is 80km/h, is there anyway to know which camera trapped me?

[Bommii]

I dont want to appeal, i know its my fault, just want to be careful in future.

BTW i was travelling from Tampines to Clementi

[Ikeehc]

don't the letter state where you were caught speeding? maybe you can call up the TP and check with them.

 

They are everywhere nowadays, better to keep within speed limit. only delay your journey by another 5 to 10 mins.

[Bommii]

Nope, it says PIE and the date & time, no specific location.

[Dtvox]

The mounted camera can be found before the BKE exit but very often, the speed traps are laid out at the overhead bridges along the expressway.

 

2 very common sightings there:

 

1. Near Eunos exit

2. Near Steven Road exit

[Simpleman]

The notice should indicate the stretch where you're above

the speed limits, though no specific location is mentioned.

 

I'd been a bit lucky. Some months ago, I received a TP letter

informing me that I had exceeded the limit while travelling

along the PIE to Jurong on a Sunday afternoon. No fine, just

a warning with the advice to travel safely.

[Bommii]

ur right, i frequently see tp on the overhead bridge near eunos exit.

[Bommii]

You are indeed lucky, the summon didnt indicate which part of PIE

[Watwheels]

Most likely it's the overhead bridge around CJC just b4 Steven's Road exit. The MIW like to camo themselves near the bunch of trees aiming at the backside of unknowing speeding cars.

 

I didn't kenna cause I know they like to station on the 2 overhead bridges outside Toa Payoh and the one near CJC. I always make it a point to slow down when ever I'm there.

(They are incognito (with their identity concealed) with camera in hands...... so don't expect to

see a TP, etc)

Har?? Below 100kmph also get summon? I always drive at 90++ on the PIE, even if the stretch is just 80 and has signs that say camera zone. So far haven't got anything yet.

 

Looks like I should slow down liao. But I always see cars zooming at 100 or more at lane 1, how come they don't seem to be bothered by the speed cams?

 

Sorry for u bro. Drive safe.

[Smiley]

cameras are everywhere these days and they moves around.

[Smiley]

34000 a year is very cheap considering the revenue they will bring in fr LTA.

[Kingcopa]

LTA sure know how to make $$$

[Smiley]

yes, our money...

[Darkblue]

I think its the PIE towards Jurong direction just before Bedok Reservoir entry, that side limit 80 km/h

 

I think MAX safe limit is speed limit +10km/h

[Kingcopa]

PIE near TPy area (both direction) on the overhead bridge. Damn good location, cover by bend and tree, by the time u spot them, up lorry liao. Say cheeze............. u on TP camera
