NSW double demerit points

Kicks off on December 20, 2013, and goes right through to January 1, 2014

A reminder that double demerit points will be in force in NSW from December 20, 2013 right through to New Year’s Day.

Double demerit points apply for speeding, seatbelt and motorcycle helmet offences during the designated period. Moreover, you may be disqualified or have your licence suspended for:

  • Driving more than 45 km/h above the speed limit – six months
  • Driving more than 30 km/h but not more than 45 km/h above the speed limit – three months

In addition to the suspension and disqualification periods, these offences also carry demerit points which are added to your record. If these demerit points cause you to reach or exceed your demerit points threshold, then an additional suspension or refusal period may apply under the Demerit Points Scheme.
