Driving at 92 km/h in an 80 km/h speed limit zone constitutes a 12.5% speeding violation. According to relevant penalty regulations, exceeding the speed limit by 12.5% falls between 10% and 20% over the limit, resulting in a 3-point deduction and a fine. China's highway speed limit regulations: Signage speed limits refer to the speeds indicated by traffic signs and markings on roads. The specific speed limits are determined by transportation authorities based on factors such as road design speed, functional type, geometric alignment characteristics, traffic flow, and roadside environment. Regulatory speed limits: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law and its implementation regulations, roads without centerlines have a speed limit of 40 km/h; roads with only one lane in the same direction have a speed limit of 70 km/h; when entering or exiting non-motorized lanes, passing through railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, narrow bridges, or when making U-turns, turning, or descending steep slopes, the speed limit is 30 km/h. The maximum speed limit on expressways is 120 km/h. Special time and weather speed limits: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law and its implementation regulations, when driving on ordinary roads in fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail with visibility less than 50 meters, or when driving on icy or muddy roads, the speed limit is 30 km/h. To strictly manage passenger vehicles, the speed between 10 PM and 5 AM must not exceed 80% of the daytime speed limit. Speeding fine amounts: Exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% will not be penalized; exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine and 3-point deduction; exceeding the speed limit by 20% to less than 30% will result in a fine and 6-point deduction; exceeding the speed limit by 50% to less than 70% will result in a fine, 12-point deduction, and possible license revocation; exceeding the speed limit by 70% or more will result in a fine, 12-point deduction, and possible license revocation.
