Excessive speeding (50 km/h or more over)
About this charge
At fifty or more over, the fine climbs steeply and the charge carries six demerit points. That is enough, on its own, to put a graduated-licence driver near suspension and to move a fully licensed driver a long way toward it. Insurers treat excessive-speed convictions as a serious event, and the premium consequence over three years routinely dwarfs the fine.
How we defend it
- Close scrutiny of the evidence and the manner of speed measurement
- A reduction in the recorded speed can change both the fine and the point count
- Assess suspension exposure against your existing abstract
