Exceeding the speed limit is a common but serious offence under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. Even though many drivers may consider speeding to be a minor infraction, the legal system treats it with significant concern due to the potential risks involved. It’s crucial to understand the implications and the potential penalties that may result from a speeding offence.
Speeding Penalties:
Speeding can lead to various penalties, depending on the severity of the offence, including:
- Fines: Financial penalties vary based on how much the speed limit was exceeded and can be substantial.
- Penalty Points: Accumulating penalty points on your driving license can lead to increased insurance costs and, if you accrue too many points, a driving ban.
- Driving Disqualification: In more serious cases, or for repeat offenders, driving disqualification may be imposed, impacting your ability to work and maintain daily responsibilities.
