This will depend upon a number of factors, chiefly the level that you were above the speed limit. Penalties range from a three point licence endorsement to an immediate disqualification as well as a financial penalty. When considering your case the magistrates are confined within strict guidelines that mathematically calculate the penalty that you should receive dependent upon the speed you were travelling. However there are a number of factors that if properly presented can ensure that you receive a much lesser sentence than you otherwise would receive. These include your previous driving record, your plea, the manner of your driving and road conditions and the reason why you were driving in excess of the speed limit.
