I dont do more than 120km/hr,am I crazy? I love my life. Even at that speed, I know things can go bad. I was once travelling from asaba to Ibadan. As I was passing ọrẹ flyover, I pressed brake and it went flat, one of my brake's hydraulic pipes (the one connecting the rear passanger had leaked). Luckily at that point I had slowed down and was able to find a mechanic to fix it before proceeding. I was just thanking God that didn't happen on top speed, I would have found myself inside a bush maybe.

I have however been inside a bus doing about 180km%hr on my way from Abuja to Ibadan some years back. I was sitting beside the driver, my eyes glued to the speedometer and I was begging the guy to take it easy most part of the journey.

180km/h... Lagos/Ibadan expressway... Honda accord (2001) coupe V6 engine...

When it got to 180km/h, the gear didn't change again and the car didn't exceed that.. So I decided to rest! Felt that was the highest it could go...

2016!

Oga dis your zobo is too chilled.

An average F1 car does 300km/h and they are equipped to not take off. How did your rickety VW remain on the ground @ 300km/h comrade?
VW Phaeton isn't an ordinary car as you would imagine. It's VW's answer to top Mercedes S class or BMW's 760 series

This is exactly what many reckless drivers don’t think about. Death is the easy part. If they survive they will find out the other side of life when their own body that they take for granted becomes a prison.

Amalekki:
My advice before you perform all these high speed stunts:

- Pay a visit to the best three hospitals around you.
- Talk to the doctors and medical personnel on the current state of healthcare in the country.
- Find out how survivors are cared for in our system.

Happy 2023 and many more.

I means you work as corporate driver for private persons or organizations. You dress corporate and all. (Behind stuffs). Also, you don't work 24/7 like the normal drivers and you don't do all those menial jobs the normal drivers do. There is going to be an agreement on whether its city driving or inter state as the case may be.

Lol bro I don learn something o, I went for a traditional wedding on Friday along airport road, fear no gree me pass 120km/h inside Sienna 09.

I've come to realize that na where your craze stop na there another person own start, you should see the way people run along this Abuja Airport Road, if you're not disciplined enough you may just be tempted to chase somebod and the wonders those taxi drivers do with their small Golf and Mazda sef na story for another day.

I thought I was the only one that felt this way.

As a Rivers man, the driving in Abuja scares me to death. I was asking one Uba guy where they're all rushing to. �

160.... in those days when roads were roads.... but I still spun off after losing two tyres.... and not only walked away but drove away.
These days I don't exceed 140... but just on two roads.... Shehu Yaradua Boulevard to the airport.... or Shehu Yaradua Way at the close of work... most days.

250km/hr with a Toyota Prado in Akure - Ife - Ibadan expressway...

It was in a bid to overtake few cars trying to drag the road with us.
The person(an experienced driver) on the wheel is someone that get pissed off easily, so he did that to rubbish the other people's cars and humble them.

The maximum speed for a Toyota Prado is 200km/hr.

An F1 is not that fast on a straight line. What makes dem d king is their cornering ability. 300km/hr is possible but not in that Volkswagen
