Overspeeding by 10% on the highway will result in a fine ranging from 50 to 200 yuan and 3 demerit points. The vehicle owner should pay the fine on time at the relevant department. The following are the penalty regulations for overspeeding by 10%-20%: Speed limit below 50 km/h: Exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine of 50 yuan and 3 demerit points. Speed limit between 50 to 80 km/h: Exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine of 100 yuan and 3 demerit points. Speed limit between 80 to 100 km/h: Exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine of 150 yuan and 3 demerit points. Speed limit above 100 km/h: Exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 50% will result in a fine of 200 yuan and 3 demerit points.
Yesterday on the highway, I accidentally exceeded the speed limit by 10%. When the speedometer hit 132 km/h, the flashing light came on, and my heart sank. Shortly after being caught, I received a text notification: a 200-yuan fine and 3 penalty points. I had to handle it at the traffic police station or pay via the 12123 APP within 15 days—delaying could result in late fees. After dealing with it, I reflected deeply: on highways, even a 10% overage seems minor, but the increased braking distance makes sudden hazards more dangerous. Like my neighbor who crashed last year due to speeding, facing both repair costs and compensation. Learning my lesson, I now use a mobile app for speed alerts and real-time navigation monitoring. Safety comes first—keeping within speed limits is the only sustainable approach.
