How speeding fines work

Exceeding the speed limit by too much is illegal and if you are caught by a speed camera or police officer any of the following could happen:

* Verbal warning

* Asked to attend a speed awareness course. (You will have to pay for this).

* Fixed penalty notice (speeding ticket), which constitutes a fine and 3 penalty points.

* You are prosecuted for speeding. You would appear in court, which could lead to a large fine, penalty points, and a possible driving ban.

The severity of the punishment will usually depend on how fast you were driving. Police officers can use their discretion in deciding how far over the speed limit is punishable.
