demerit points for speeding sa

Ah, South Australia and its love affair with demerit points for speeding! Generally, the faster you drive over the limit, the more points you collect on your license—up to 4 points for the worst offenders. For example, going 13-20 km/h over the limit is usually 1 demerit point, while anything above 30 km/h can land you 4 points plus a hefty fine. Remember, rack up 12 points within 3 years, and your license might be on a forced holiday.

Of course, these rules can have exceptions and nuances, so check the official SA Government site or ServiceCentral for the precise details before you start pretending you didn’t see the speedo needle creeping up.
