    Default Speeding Question... SA

    K I have a question..... how far over the speed limit is loss of license?

    GGRRRR Running late & I got done Now the copper was sitting either just before or just after the sign Im not sure... So Im either 19K's over OUCH! or Im 39 over & thats license gone right? I sure hope my speedo is out & I wasnt really going that fast.


    Yes speeding bad etc... Please dont flame me here I know I did bad etc... but can anyone tell me what the fines are? $$$ & if Ive lost it?


    TIA

    anything over 40 km's over the limit is on the spot loss of license... they literally chop your license up with no grace period allowed.. you and your car have to find a way home

    i got done for 50 over the limit a while back and copped a $895 fine

    i dont think u will loose your licence but i think you will get a huge fine and get 6 points.

    I expect you'll loose 4 points for that speed...

    Also it might depend on how the cops look at it when they develope your photo...

    You may cop some other charges...like negligent driving... but I dunno about camera fines... best you ask the local constabulary about that...

    A friend of mine copped a sixpoint fine a long time ago.... but because the offence occured at 2am when he was coming home from work...and no one else was around he was let off from getting in any further shit...just a heafty fine...
