Speeding penalties for p platers?
 

i used the web but it doesnt say anything useful.

does anyone know what the penalties are for speeding at 5 ks over, 10ks over, etc?

It's around online somewhere... if i find the link i'll post it. But from memory

0-9ks over - $75
10-19k's over - $150 + 2 Demerits

And im sure someone else can fill in the rest.

Police website, look for 'infringements'.

Google it?

Look harder.

[U]Speed over Posted Limit: $fine + Demerits[/U]
0-9km/h: $75 + No Demerits
10-19km/h: $150 + 2 Demerits
20-29km/h: $250 + 3 Demerits
30-39km/h: $350 + 5 Demerits
40+ km/h: $1000 + 7 Demerits

Go more than 45km/h over and it is automatically classed as reckless driving.

That is ridiculous! Had no idea they went up (AGAIN!!!)

Got done on the Stuart Highway between Port Augusta and Woomera yesterday, 18k over, $310 :(

im doing alright to hold out, im on my last point (until june 09) had been on 3 since march 07 but lost 2 a few months ago doing an illegal u-turn, $100 and 2 points :( gotta be careful. never lost my licence

Losing it is the best way to get all your points back ;)

If your car is owned by a company the fine is double but no points!

Found out the hard way recently, but prefer fines to points loss.
