Pretty scary for me as I been seeing this one for sometime now...It stand's just opposite to my office (JPMC) and that both my car and my bike is WB registration. I might be pulled over for different reason altogether. -
Was pulled up yesterday near yesvanthpura railway station. Reason:- was driving in the wrong side of the road
. Paid 100 & went. Any idea about the fine for the offence i made??. I dint regret paying him since i had committed an offence.

Ahh automotive discriminationOriginally posted by tibby View PostNo! The vehicle class-wise speed limits should still hold good IMO. What this would mean is that 2-wheelers aren't allowed on the rightmost lane (except for overtaking maybe)..

We would have given the traffic police some khufiya khabar that a group of over-speeding badass bikers is coming to Bangalore via Mysore Road. They would have been more than happy to station themselves there for a guaranteed INR 1,500 (INR 300 each for the 5 of you), & the opportunity to give you guys some safe riding gyaan (this one's for free; the wisdom types).

So does that mean that even two wheelers can go onto high speeds (80kmph) in the 3rd lane??. Ialways wanted a such kind of rule. Those people who drive slowly & value their lives can go slowly in the slow lane & those who drive fast can go in the fast lane. Accidents can be reduced by this .Sorry for my late reply since i havent read this thread from a long time.Originally posted by tibby View PostLeave a comment:

I remember you mentioning you wanted a documented proof of your bike's top-speed.Originally posted by Hyperion View Post
In the 8-10 times that I have done this stretch on my bike, I have seen an interceptor just once!!
The interceptors do stop the cars as well, but stopping 2 wheelers is more rampant due to:
1. Ease of stopping a 2 wheeler (read, low danger of injury/ losing life).
2. Lower speed limit of 2-wheelers.
3. Easy & soft targets.
If they usher a vehicle to stop, & it doesn't, either the message is conveyed over wireless, or a speeding challan is sent over to the vehicles reistered address.Leave a comment:

Interceptor Update!
Interceptor sighted regularly on Outer Ring Road, Marathalli. Bang outside Ivy-the unwind island, & Opposite Prestige Tech Park (JP Morgan).
The Interceptor is stationed here during non-peak hours, typically between 11am & 5pm.Leave a comment:

I haven't done the Hebbal-BIAL stretch in the last 1+ month, but I have seen a board near Esteem Mall, stating the speed limit for 2-wheelers is 60kmph.Originally posted by santhan View Post
You're lucky to have escaped paying 100.
EDIT: Seems like the lane wise speed limits of 40-60-80 for lanes 1-2-3 (from left) is back. Saw fresh markings of these speeds in the lanes opposite Esteem Mall about a fortnight ago.Leave a comment:

yeah i have but you have to see carefully. They write the speed limits of all the three vehicles(cars, trucks & bikes) side by side. Sometimes we get mistaken in observing that. I had been able to observe that when i was travelling in a taxi & was watching everything carefully.Originally posted by santhan View PostLeave a comment:

well, i have searched for the boards having 60kmph written on them but found none on the way to BIAL from Hebbal. Everywhere it was the same 80. And at some junctions other than this BIAL-hebbal stretch, saw boards marking clear speed limits for two and four wheelers !!!
Have you seen any board with 60kmph for 2 wheelers on this BIAL - Hebbal stretch ?Leave a comment:

The speed limit is written on the boards as 60kmph. You were overspeeding & had an excessive speed of 15kmph. So there was no point in arguing with the cop when you have broke a rule. You should feel lucky that he had left you by taking just 100 rupees since most of the times they dont leave like that untill your pocket gets empty.Originally posted by santhan View PostI faced a similar situation couple of days back. It was the same location just before Yelahanka Junction, and a corrupted cop caught me for over speeding (was doing 75kmph ). Argued with him for not having any specific speed limit for 2/4 wheelers and everywhere its the same 80kmph written on those boards. He took my license and was reluctant in giving it back. Asked me to pay 300rs ( offered to give me a challan instead of printout - reason being printer not working...he was blabbering some crap). I was short of money as i had only 200rs with me..After arguing for about 20mins, he asked me to give 100rs for no challan being given and leave the place and if argued further he will impose heavy penalty for over speeding and seize the bike. I was in a hurry to the airport and asked him to give me the challan for 200rs for which the cop turned it down !
I wish something serious needs to be done with such corrupted cops. Despite following traffic rules we end up emptying our pockets.
No hard feelings bro
. Just posted my opinion.
