In this work we generalize an earlier treatment of the measurements of velocities at the event horizon of a black hole. This is intended as a pedagogical exercise as well as one more contribution to the resolution of some unphysical interpretations related to velocity measurements by generalized observers. We now use a more general metric and, non-geodesic observer sets to show that the velocity of a test particle at the event horizon is less than the speed of light.
