"Fines and demerit points for speed camera detected speeding offences are the same as for other speeding tickets.
Current penalties for speeding

Less than 13km/h over the speed limit:
$162 + 1 demerit point.
At least 13km/h but not more than 20km/h over the speed limit:
$243 + 3 demerit points.
More than 20km/h but not more than 30km/h over the speed limit:
$406 + 4 demerit points.
More than 30km/h but not more than 40km/h over the speed limit:
$568 + 6 demerit points.
More than 40km/h over the speed limit:
$1,137 + 8 demerit points and 6 month suspension.

Double demerit points

Double demerit points apply in Queensland to drivers and motorcycle riders who commit more than 1 of the following speeding offences within a 12 month period:
Penalty set (km/h over speed limit) First offence Second offence (within a year)




Monetary penalty
21-30km/h 4 points $406 8 points $406
31-40km/h 6 points $568 12 points $568
41km/h and above 8 points and 6 months suspension $1,137 16 points and 6 months suspension $1,137

For example, if you commit a speeding offence of 25km/h over the speed limit, you will be allocated 4 demerit points for that offence. If you commit a second speeding offence of 32km/h over the speed limit within 1 year, you will be allocated 6 demerit points for the second offence, plus an additional 6 demerit points for it being within 1 year of the first offence. You will have 16 demerit points allocated to your traffic history, which will result in a driver licence sanction."
