The penalties for speeding are based on how many kilometers over the speed limit you were allegedly traveling at:
- 0-15km over: 0 demerit points
- 16-29km over: 3 demerit points
- 30-49km over: 4 demerit points
- 50+ km over: 6 demerit points, suspension of your driver’s licence.
Did You Know: If you are traveling at a rate of speed at 50 or more kilometers over the limit, you can also be charged for stunt driving/racing/excessive speed under section 172 of the Highway Traffic Act.
The set fines for speeding are between $3.00 - $9.75 per kilometer, depending on how fast you were traveling. If you are charged with speeding in a community safety or construction zone with the workers present, the set fines are doubled.
