Default Demerit points

Since when did you lose 3 points for speeding less than 15km/h over the limit?

That's ridiculous!

For reference....

All but one of my tickets (and demerit points) have been for <15kms and 3 points.
That is all the way back to 93.

The last one I got (fixed cam) was also under 15km/h over the limit and I ended up with 4 points! Go figure.

It used to be one point then it became 2 points but I missed when it turned to 3!

Cash, I haven't been driving that long but I know that I've had a couple of 1 pointers for low range speeding.

Frisk was that in a school zone?

I have 5 demerit points at the moment and that was a 3 pointer 15-30 and a 2 pointer <15 and I get rid of all of those by August.

Yeah, bad me I know. This was the 2nd school zone camera that got me in the last year and the first was only 3 points, does it depend how far into the school zone time period you are??
