1 Answers
No. Driving at 140 mph on a highway with a 120 mph speed limit is considered speeding. According to national regulations, speeding less than 10% incurs no penalty, while speeding between 10% and 20% results in a 3-point deduction and a fine of 100 yuan. Penalty rules for motor vehicle speeding generally apply to speeding on highways and other roads outside highways. If the speed exceeds the limit by 10%, a warning is issued. On roads with a speed limit below 50 km/h, exceeding the speed limit by 10% to 20% results in a 50 yuan fine; exceeding by 20% to 50% results in a 100 yuan fine; exceeding by 50% to 70% results in a 300 yuan fine; exceeding by more than 70% results in a 500 yuan fine. On roads with a speed limit between 50 km/h and 80 km/h, exceeding the speed limit by 10% to 20% results in a 100 yuan fine; exceeding by 20% to 50% results in a 150 yuan fine; exceeding by 50% to 70% results in a 500 yuan fine; exceeding by more than 70% results in a 1000 yuan fine.
