Will I Get Penalty Points for Driving at 72 in a 70 Speed Limit Zone?
1 Answers
Driving at 72 km/h in a 70 km/h speed limit zone will not result in penalty points. Below are the hazards of speeding: 1. Vehicle steering becomes unstable: Speeding increases the difference in airflow speed between the top and bottom of the vehicle body. This differential causes the vehicle to generate upward lift, reducing stability during driving. This is one of the main reasons for unstable steering. 2. Driving habits intensify: The faster the speed, the stronger the vehicle's inertia to maintain straight-line driving, leading to poorer directional control and significantly increased risks. If an emergency occurs ahead, it becomes difficult to control the vehicle within a short time, potentially resulting in unimaginable consequences.
