    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
