2 Answers
Driving at 115 km/h in a 100 km/h zone is considered speeding, exceeding the limit by 15%. The penalties and demerit points for speeding are as follows: 1. Exceeding the speed limit by less than 10%: No penalty for now. 2. Exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20%: Fine and 3 demerit points. 3. Exceeding the speed limit by 20% to less than 50%: Fine and 6 demerit points. 4. Exceeding the speed limit by 50% or more: Fine and 12 demerit points. Relevant information about speeding is as follows: 1. Introduction one: Speeding refers to the behavior of a driver operating a vehicle at a speed exceeding the legal or regulatory limits, for example, the maximum speed on highways should not exceed 120 km/h. 2. Introduction two: When there are speed limit traffic signs or speed limit surface signs, drivers must strictly adhere to the speed indicated. Exceeding the designated speed for that section of the road constitutes speeding.
I remember once when I was driving on the highway, the speed limit was 100 kilometers per hour, and I was going 115. That's 15% over the speed limit, which might not sound like much, but the impact can be significant. I accidentally drove a bit too fast before, and the braking distance increased, almost causing a rear-end collision. Traffic rules are strict—speeding by 15% can result in a fine of 200 to 500 yuan in many places, and you might even lose 3 points on your license. I think everyone should get into the habit of checking the speedometer while driving and avoid taking risks just to save time. Safety comes first—speeding is not only dangerous but also affects your insurance record. Now, I use cruise control to easily stay within the speed limit, making driving much more relaxed.
