When speeding in Sydney, the stakes are high, especially if the case goes to court. Invictus Legal provides an expert defence for those facing court-imposed penalties for speeding. The court can impose fines and driving disqualifications based on the severity of the speeding offence. For example:

Exceeding the speed limit by not more than 10 km/h can result in a court-imposed fine of up to $2,200 for both light and heavy vehicles.

For exceeding the speed limit by more than 10 km/h but not more than 20 km/h, the fine remains at $2,200.
-
The pattern continues with a $2,200 fine for exceeding the limit by more than 20 km/h but not more than 30 km/h.
