In this case, there will be no points deducted, only a fine. Here are the relevant details: 1. Regulations: According to Document No. 455 [2013] issued by the Traffic Management Bureau, for roads with speed limits of 60 km/h or below (including 60 km/h), if the speeding does not exceed 50% and no traffic accident is caused, the traffic authorities will only issue a warning without deducting points. The scope of roads referred to in this regulation applies to all roads in provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions, as well as most urban roads. If fined or penalized with points, one may file an administrative lawsuit or sue in a designated court. 2. Fines: On roads with speed limits between 50 km/h and 80 km/h, exceeding the speed limit by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine of 100 yuan; exceeding by 20% to less than 50% will result in a fine of 150 yuan; exceeding by 50% to less than 70% will result in a fine of 500 yuan; and exceeding by 70% or more will result in a fine of 1,000 yuan.
