2 Answers
Driving at 90 in a 60 zone constitutes speeding by 50%, which results in 12 penalty points on the driver's license and a fine ranging from 500 to 2000 RMB. Below is relevant information about speeding: 1. Introduction: Speeding refers to a driver operating a vehicle at a speed exceeding the legal limits set by laws and regulations. Turbine overspeed accidents are severe incidents caused by failures in the turbine's speed regulation and protection systems, as well as inherent defects. 2. Regulations: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law: If a vehicle's speed exceeds the limit by less than 10%, the driver will receive a warning. Exceeding the speed limit by more than 10% but less than 20% results in a 50 RMB fine and 3 penalty points on the driver's license. Exceeding the speed limit by more than 20% but less than 50% incurs a 100 RMB fine and 6 penalty points. Exceeding the speed limit by more than 50% leads to 12 penalty points and a fine ranging from 500 to 2000 RMB.
Having driven for decades, I've seen many speeding cases. If the speed limit is 60 and you're doing 90, that's 30 km/h over—exactly 50% over the limit. According to traffic rules, speeding over 50% carries heavy penalties: an immediate 12-point deduction and license suspension, plus retaking the written test, with fines ranging from 200 to 2000 yuan depending on the region. My neighbor was once fined 1500 yuan for 50% over and it disrupted his work. Driving that fast is dangerous—rain doubles braking distance, raising accident risks. I recommend using a navigation app to alert speed limits and build good habits. Post-fine, dealing with traffic police is a hassle, and insurance rates spike. Safety first—those saved minutes aren't worth it. Regular tire and brake checks also prevent mishaps. Bottom line: speeding's a bad trade—survival matters more.
