German police say a motorist has been clocked driving at more than 199 mph on the Autobahn west of Berlin. He was traveling at more than 124 mph above the speed limit.
We have that too. Huh, looks like you actually do get a small number for just speeding. Never mind.
A lot of the stuff that gets you big points should probably get you banned or jailed immediately, but we’ve built our whole society around cars so they really don’t like doing that.
Yeah 45kma over the limit is the harshest with 1000 dollar fine and 6 points, however there is a law driving at a dangerous speed which will land you in court with your car impounded and probably lose license straight away.
For instance we used to have open speed limits where I live in the Northern Territory so going 200kms wasn’t really a worry on the remote highways where nothing is around.
Then the southerners started moving up and brought our speed limits to 130, but if your caught doing 175kms in the Middle of now where “safely” you get the fine.
However if you’re doing 100kms in a school zone (40kms an hour) straight to jail
