TP is everywhere!!! The WRXs are always sitting on the road shoulder along the expressways lights flashing. Be careful fellas. BZSAB, pls ensure your beer can is not sitting where it always is in your ride.
ya, these 2 weeks had been seeing alot of "white caps". Just yesterday about 9.30am travelling from Tagore to Sim Ming going to Juzz for cars. before turning into Sin Ming Dr from Upper Thomson (Zag, that's the junction where we met). At the overhead bridge, "white cap" using a telescopic laser detector. She was actaully aiming at cars i think as far as 1 or 1.5km away. therefore you cannot really notice that she is aiming at you last minute....six sense only jump once, and then nothing. i was travelling at 60km/h along that stretch after my last episode there.
gentlemen, drive with caution.

I can deal with WRX waiting along the expressway, they can deter alot of crazy drivers. Lorries, vans and taxis will pull to the slower lane when they saw it. Happily i will overtake at 100 only.
What i cannot stand is white caps on overhead brigdes!! they should deter reckless drivingand not out to "catch"!

Hi Guys,

The way to beat these "white-cap" is to apply a layer of paint or wax to absorb or deflect those waves pointed at our cars, just like shealth plane and ship. Those so-called "white cap" would notice their instruments showing infinite reading or error.

Anyone has lobang for the paint or wax?

ha ha ha. Still dreaming.

Agree with lmk. I think that most of the time, white caps will only catch reckless drivers. I had spotted them at overhead bridges when I did about 110 km/hr. 6th sense didn't jump. No offence notices after a few months. So I guess they decided to let me off.

Aiya,the white cap met his/her target for the day so your number was deleted. Those folk needs to explain if they exceed thier quotation also. You know, those are CA type.

Yeah, but get caught with device installed in the car, will surely piss in the pants. I heard the fine is terrible and the points awarded can put you off the road for a year. How about confiscation of vehicle? Not worth the risk lah. Better to drive more carefully and play around with small fines and points.
Can always go up north and play big time if the itch comes along; very cheap; track fee is only MR50.00 Some more very kinky; the wardens are stationed along the expressway dressed like policemen
