Six drivers to be charged for speeding in heavy commercial vehicles in Singapore


Offenders, including drivers of buses and cement mixers, were caught between August and October this year

[SINGAPORE] Six heavy commercial vehicle drivers will be charged in court on Tuesday (Dec 30) for separate speeding offences they allegedly committed between August and October this year, the police said on Monday (Dec 29).

The drivers were caught exceeding the heavy vehicle speed limits by 15 kmh to 24 kmh.

The vehicles driven included buses, cement mixers and a tipper truck, and none were fitted with speed limiters.

Unlike passenger cars, whose speed limit is dictated by traffic signs and road types, heavy commercial vehicles such as buses and tipper trucks have a maximum speed limit of 60 kmh.

The vehicle speed limit for cement mixers is lower, at 40 kmh.
