What is the penalty for speeding over 100mph?

Speeding over 100mph is an offence that will likely result in the driver being seriously penalised.  While the answer to the question “is driving over 100 mph an instant ban?”  is no, you need to understand that you are still at the risk of a driving disqualification in such a situation.

As per the Magistrates sentencing guidelines for driving in excess of 101mph on a motorway or dual carriageway, Magistrates are guided to consider a disqualification from driving for a period of 7-56 days. So, looking at this, it is very likely that if you get caught speeding at this level, there will be a push for some level of disqualification.

You may also get fined, as well as having the magistrate endorse your driving licence with at least 6 penalty points. The Magistrates’ sentence for being caught driving over 100mph is also determined by surrounding factors such as the nature of the roads involved, the weather conditions and your overall driving conduct in general.

The magistrates will look to understand how the offence occurred, the impacts of the driving, and the impacts any disqualification will have. They consider the consequences that an employer, workers and/or dependent family members will face should they disqualify the driver. With this in mind, you can see how important the mitigating circumstances in such a case can be, with an expert motoring solicitor able to guide on all of this.
