Cost of California Vehicle Code 22348 vc
In California, the average fine for driving over 100mph is $900!
However, the actual cost of violation code 22348, exceeding 100 mph, can be much higher than just the court imposed fine for the ticket. If you just pay the traffic ticket, 2 points will be added to your driving record and can stay there for 3 more years. Think about it, depending on how many points you have on your driving record and who you use for your auto insurance, the true cost of this one traffic ticket on your driving record could end up being $2,700 or more over 3 years.
You may also want to keep in mind that if you have 4 points on your driving record in on year, or 6 points in 2 years, or 8 points in 3 years, the DMV will suspend your driver’s license. If this happens, you can bet it will cost you a lot more in possible lost wages, court fines, and other personal expenses due to the lack of having a valid driver’s licenses.
