What is the speed limit on PLUS highways?

[quicksilver7]

As per the topic, I called JPJ and asked. They said it's following the sign boards. But newspaper said it's 80?? Why the confusion..

“The speed limit will now be 80kph for federal roads while those travelling on state roads will not be allowed to go more than 70kph. It will take effect beginning Aug 12 until Aug 26"

Bro, i think only applicable to the FEDERAL roads, not highway.

Aren't highways federal roads?

During Raya, the roads & highways should be full of cars....

Speed limit i think remains 110km/hr unless specified in press or news media.

Got one year it was brought down to 100km/hr during festive season...

But it didnt work well...

Instead got more mishap statistically...

Just drive with extra care, rest when you are tired, and dont follow the car in front of you too close...

You never know....

Suddenly all the cars might stop:wavey: standstill because of traffic jam...

You achieved 90km/h by doing that? Wow not bad. I didn't know drag was so big a factor. But you must be very careful to sudden speed changes of the trailer. Might not be able to stop in time..
