Generally, speeding at 150 km/h on the highway results in a deduction of three points. For speeding less than 50% over the limit on highways, penalties are imposed under Article 90, including a fine and 3 points. Speeding more than 50% over the limit results in a fine, 6 points deducted, and revocation of the motor vehicle driving license. Here is additional information: Motor vehicle drivers committing any of the following violations will have 6 points deducted: 1. Driving medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicles, school buses, or hazardous material transport vehicles on highways or urban expressways exceeding the speed limit by less than 20%. 2. Driving medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicles, school buses, or hazardous material transport vehicles on roads other than highways or urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles exceeding the speed limit by 20% or more but less than 50%.
Last month, I impulsively sped up to 150 km/h on the highway and got caught, resulting in a 6-point deduction. Later, I specifically checked the regulations—China’s highways generally have a speed limit of 120 km/h. Exceeding 150 km/h means going 25% over the limit, which falls within the 20%-50% range and directly incurs a 6-point penalty. If it were a mountainous area with a 100 km/h limit, exceeding 50% would cost all 12 points. Honestly, the fine isn’t the big issue; the real wake-up call was when I nearly lost control speeding in the rain. Now, I strictly stick to 120 km/h. A reminder: exceeding 50% could even get your license revoked, with enforcement waiting at the next toll booth. I recommend installing a navigation system with interval speed monitoring alerts—it’s safer and hassle-free.
Bro, take my advice, speeding on the highway is playing with your life! Last time I was caught doing 150 km/h by a speed camera and got 6 points deducted. Most sections have a speed limit of 120 km/h, and 150 km/h is exactly 25% over the limit. According to regulations, exceeding the speed limit by 20%-50% results in this penalty. If it's a tunnel or construction zone with an 80 km/h limit, the penalty doubles to 12 points. Not only did I pay nearly a thousand yuan in fines, but my insurance premium also increased by 15% upon renewal. Now I keep an eye on the speedometer and ease off the throttle as soon as I approach 130 km/h. Turning on the headlights at night makes the speed warnings even more obvious—it's much better than losing points.
Speeding at 150 km/h will definitely result in a 6-point deduction. There's a clear definition: exceeding the speed limit by 20% to 50% directly incurs 6 points. On regular highways with a 120 km/h limit, it's easy to meet this threshold, but on special sections limited to 100 km/h, it could lead to a 12-point deduction. Last time, a novice friend of mine exceeded the limit by 50% and had to retake the written test, which was quite troublesome. Honestly, driving fast saves only a few minutes. For example, the 300 km trip from Beijing to Shijiazhuang takes about 2.5 hours at 120 km/h; pushing to 150 km/h saves at most 10 minutes but doubles the risk, which isn't worth it. Nowadays, everyone uses the speed limit reminder feature in navigation apps.
