it's a shame how hold up appears on the abuja airport road , back then it used to be an emergency high way , government officials do 200+ and the cars disappears before you know Awolowo, now it's a night mare

You can still floor it. Just don't try it during rush hour. The problem with that road is the u-turns. Some mad folks don't know how to use them.

Better stil if you want to brutalize your wheels, Sundays 9am till noon. You can redline your engine, no problem. My problem remains, tyres. I am damn scared of exploding tyres. I just don't trust them anymore. The quality of tyres have sunk. In my dad's days you will begin to notice wear after 3 years. These days, six months.

Well believe it or not I have done 130 miles per hour which is approximately 210km/hr on Third Mainland Bridge, around 1am back in 2017.

Nowadays, I don't go above 160km/hr on the express and 90km/hr inside town

I hope you drive with your hazard lights. Driving at this speed especially on the highway is equally as unsafe as driving in excess of 100mph
That's what people don't know. Under speeding is worse than over speeding. Under speeding vehicles are mostly first victims of accidents. Especially multiple accidents.

You dont need to go to the North tongue

The Benin-Asaba road is one very amazing road. That road as old as it is is one of the best in the country.

There's no checkpoint, hardly any pothole and you have good visibility. Not a lot of curves, hills or valleys like roads in the East.

That was where I used to flex my muscle grin


Yeah. I've done 160km/h along the Benin-Asaba road a few times. Although not intentionally as I immediately take my leg off the throttle upon realising I've reached that speed from the speedometer dial. Scary shiii

We have heard a random man brag that he has hit 180km/hr when travelling from Abuja to Port Harcourt. On these bad roads?
With
no regard for safety and human life?

Mine is 120km/h on Port Harcourt - Umuahia Road (many years ago, the road is bad now).
I was running late to a wedding.

What's the highest speed you have ever hit? Be it during car/bike race or expressway driving, tell us.

I had witnessed a car running at a speed of 165km/hr back then in 2014. I was in jeep, the owner warned the driver not to enter 120 km/hr, anytime he go pass it. he should release his foot from the acceleration pedal.

At a point about 1hr and some minutes, the owner of the car ( oga) dosed off, then the driver who was also a relation decided to showcase his skills.

I just decided to check the speedometer of the car since no one was monitoring him, I was sitting behind him. I had to stretch to see, he was doing 165 km/hr going to 170 km/h.

My surprise then was that other cars were overtaking us even at that speed. If they can overtake us at 165 km/hr then what should be their speed?


Normally, speed should be be between 80km/hr to 115 km/h.

170km/hr several times Benin-Ore express road. But my average speed remains 145km/hr though.

The only bad portion of that road is the Ijebu Ode axis

I’m telling you.
I'm glad I can find someone that can relate. Driving on that road dey sweet belle! The only problem is the 1 million police check points on the road. Its like a convention, they full there. Especially when you're closer to Benin.

That pointer remain small make e enter 100km. I was supposed to be in church for a wedding because I'm the bassist and music was about starting. Calls were coming and I was in the market waiting to load my girlfriend's load in the trunk. It was Honda Legend.. Even at 80, the speed was almost uncontrollable.

100km/hr using a Toyota Highlander.

My number one fear is tire blowouts. And then portholes.

On a bicycle which I ride most approx 45km/hr on Eko bridge.
