Why is it okay to drive at 100 when the speed limit is 80?
1 Answers
The reasons for not being penalized when driving at 100 in an 80 speed limit zone are as follows: No nearby cameras during speeding: Nowadays, highways are equipped with hidden cameras or interval speed monitoring, making it difficult to speed arbitrarily. This situation often occurs on some national roads lacking cameras. Generally, on various roads, only speeding exceeding 10% will result in substantial penalties. If the speeding does not reach 10%, only a warning will be issued. The Measures for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China stipulate in Article 86 that motor vehicles driving on roads in violation of speed limits shall be penalized as follows: If the speed exceeds the limit by less than 10%, a warning shall be issued; On roads with a speed limit below 50 km/h, if the speed exceeds the limit by 10% or more but less than 20%, a fine of 50 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 20% or more but less than 50%, a fine of 100 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 50% or more but less than 70%, a fine of 300 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 70% or more, a fine of 500 yuan shall be imposed; On roads with a speed limit between 50 km/h and 80 km/h, if the speed exceeds the limit by 10% or more but less than 20%, a fine of 100 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 20% or more but less than 50%, a fine of 150 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 50% or more but less than 70%, a fine of 500 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 70% or more, a fine of 1000 yuan shall be imposed; On roads with a speed limit between 80 km/h and 100 km/h, if the speed exceeds the limit by 10% or more but less than 20%, a fine of 150 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 20% or more but less than 50%, a fine of 200 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 50% or more but less than 70%, a fine of 1000 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 70% or more, a fine of 1500 yuan shall be imposed; On roads with a speed limit above 100 km/h, if the speed exceeds the limit by 10% or more but less than 50%, a fine of 200 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 50% or more but less than 70%, a fine of 1500 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 70% or more, a fine of 2000 yuan shall be imposed. Article 87 states that for tourist buses, highway passenger transport vehicles, hazardous chemical transport vehicles, and civil explosive transport vehicles, if the speed exceeds the limit by less than 50%, a fine of 200 yuan shall be imposed; if it exceeds the limit by 50% or more, a fine of 500 yuan shall be imposed, with an additional 200 yuan for every 5 km/h over the limit, but the total fine shall not exceed 2000 yuan.
