Is driving at 120 in a 100 speed limit considered speeding?
1 Answers
Driving at 120 in a 100 speed limit zone constitutes a 20% overspeed, resulting in a fine of 200 and 3 penalty points. On highways, some sections have a maximum speed limit of 100, while others allow up to 120. If you're driving in a section with a maximum speed limit of 100, exceeding this limit by any amount, even 101, is considered speeding. Below are the highway speeding levels and corresponding penalties: 1. Speeding within 10% incurs no fine or penalty points, but a warning from traffic police. 2. Speeding between 10% and 20% results in a 200 fine and 3 penalty points. 3. Speeding between 20% and 50% leads to a 300 fine and 6 penalty points. 4. Speeding over 50% results in a 1000 fine and 12 penalty points.
