1 Answers
According to the formula for calculating speeding (as shown below), the percentage of speeding = (80-70)/70×100%≈14.3%. Driving at 80 km/h in a 70 km/h zone is considered speeding and will result in corresponding penalties. According to regulations, speeding between 10%-20% over the limit will result in a 3-point deduction and a fine. Speeding <30%: Within 10% over the speed limit: no penalty for now; between 10% and 20% over the speed limit: fine and 3 points deducted; between 20% and 30% over the speed limit: fine and 6 points deducted; Speeding ≥30%: Between 20% and 30% over the speed limit: fine and 6 points deducted; between 50% and 70% over the speed limit: fine and 12 points deducted, and the driver's license may be revoked; 70% or more over the speed limit: fine and 12 points deducted, and the driver's license may be revoked.
