Driving at 200 km/h on the highway is extremely dangerous. As an experienced driver for many years, I can tell you that speeding at this level is heavily penalized under Chinese standards: for a speed limit of 120 km/h, exceeding 50% or more will result in 12 penalty points, a fine of at least 2000 yuan, and possibly license suspension or even detention. The law is this strict because at high speeds, the braking distance extends to over a hundred meters, and even a slight distraction can lead to an accident. I've witnessed the tragedy of a friend who crashed due to speeding. Safety comes first—always adhere to speed limits in daily driving, especially on highways. Stay calm and plan your trip properly; it's infinitely better than relying on speeding to save time.
