fines qld speeding Page 8

In Queensland, speeding penalties scale with how far over the limit you are, and they carry both fines and demerit points. Expect tougher penalties in school zones and roadwork areas, and camera-detected offences count just the same as a roadside stop. Rack up enough points within a set period and you can face suspension, and high-range speeding can bring harsher sanctions again. Learners and provisional drivers have lower demerit-point thresholds, so that P plate is not a hall pass. Repeat offences can also attract heavier consequences. For the current dollar amounts and point brackets, check the Queensland Government’s official schedule before your right foot writes a cheque your licence can’t cash.
