According to ICBC, police can issue a fine ranging from $368 to $483 for excessive speeding. The infraction also carries three points towards a person’s Driver Risk Premium (DRP).

Drivers that accumulate a certain number of points on their DRP are required to pay a fine when they renew their insurance, on top of paying for their annual premium.
