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.

It's not so difficult or dangerous.
If you have a Good car with Good suspension.
You wouldn't know how fast .

This is just the truth. If you are driving a very good car on a very smooth road, you'll never realize how fast you are going till you look at your speedometer.

Wow, 180, 200kmph, in a possibly welded up, accident car? Yezzus! Highest I've ever gone is 150ish, and I slowed down the second I noticed on my speedo.

I guess Imma just leave this here.

Speed kills!!...I don't go beyond 65-70mph anymore, no matter how smooth and clear the road is. Anything above 120kmph is definitely a no no!!

Speeding above 110km/h in Nigeria road is unsafe and deadly because our highest posted speed is 110km/h.

Speeding above 110km/h is unsafe and deadly here in Nigeria.

200km/hr several years ago
Benin - Ore highway with a V6 Ford Scorpio.
140km/hr on that car then was like water.
was on 160km/hr, moved to 180... 200. Another spirit say try 210....Thank God I didnt listen.

Not really, this is to also show how bad it is to drive beyond regulated speeds. Read comments of people confessing that they won't try it again (uncoerced). Some too are lying.
