Traffic police to revise speed limits on the highways

MALCOM - Over the last three weeks, there has been a peak in the number of road accidents along the highways of Linapore. Most of the accidents involve cars and lorries. There has been a total of ten accidents which took place along the Linapore Highway near the Malcom Exit.

Speaking to reporters at the launch of the road safety campaign in downtown Malcom, traffic police commandant Mr Ernest Derry says, "We are revising the speed limits on our highways. The current speed limits of 110 km/h may be reduced to 90 km/h along busy sections of the highways."

One Linaporean, Mr Govin Wu, tells WNS, "I don't think by decreasing the speed limits along the highways will prevent motorists from speeding. The police should also conduct frequent traffic operations on the roads and catch these reckless drivers."
