Vietnam Speed Limit Frustrations...

[McNeillJamie]

I’m a few days into my Vietnam motorcycle trip and so far feel like I’ve spent most of it at 40 km/h which is infuriatingly slow.

There seems to be a total lack of signage, which isn’t helping either. Today, I’ve ridden from Dong Xoai to Buon Ma Thout and it’s felt like I’ve driven along one long street of shops at 40 km/h the whole way. Where the blue town signs have the red strike through them, you’d think that’d mean a speed increase but the level of urbanisation is often no different or greater than before the sign...

I know that limits are slow in Vietnam, but it’s ridiculous that coaches are charging past myself and the other bikers at crazy speeds and we’re all pootling along.

Basically, does anyone have or know of an app or resource that shows definite speed limits? I’m being driven mad here (albeit it very slowly).
