Five thousand Złoty fine for speeding

The government has announced planned changes to the road traffic law. Among other things, the penalties for speeding will be tightened. The maximum fine for breaking the limits is to cost the driver even five thousand zlotys.

Proposed changes focus largely on increasing fines and penalties for traffic offences. The government wants the driver to pay a fine of up to PLN 5 thousand for exceeding the speed limit by 30 km/h. If there is a repeat offence, i.e. a driver breaks the law one more time, the mandatory fine is to be from PLN 3,000 to PLN 5,000.

The changes also provide for raising the fine in the case of traffic offences to 30 km/h. The penalties for drunk drivers are also to be tightened.

Among the provisions, there is also a proposal to make the price of MTPL dependent on the number of penalty points.
