Road markings and speed limits

Lets see who knows what the road markings are for on the roads? Expats dont answer this...oh then again when it says speed limit 100 does that mean we should drive 140/160???? Please remember ALL cars can go as fast as they can but we expats know and respect the Law of the Land...To the silver FJ cruiser that nearly caused and accident on Tuesday morning, it was so uncalled for what you did really. We all want to get to work in one piece and back home in one piece NOT IN PIECES. Im surprised to see at 5:15 onwards the people in uniform be it whatever drive like lightning on the D ring and New Airport roads....when will they put up cameras on the new airport road??? as for D ring road cars speed upto the camera slam anchors 20 or 30 meters after that drive like the wind till the next camera????

Would you also please post about all the idiots who are talking on their mobile phones and weaving between lanes and going 20 - 40 km under the limit in all lanes on D-ring?

Personally, I wish that everyone would obey the limit and drive at or near the 100KPH posted. The slower traffic is a menace as well.
