Penalties for Driving Over 100 MPH in CA

Under California Vehicle Code 22348(b) VC, it's unlawful for motorists to drive on any highway in speeds over 100 miles per hour. The offense is an infraction, and being judge guilty for it can result in steep fines, among other penalties.

The specific punishments for driving over 100 mph depend on the number of previous convictions and include:

• First offense:
  • Fine of up to $500
  • Driver's license suspension for up to 30 days
• Second offense within 3 years of the previous:
  • Fine of up to $750
  • Driver's license suspension for 6 months
• Third or subsequent offense within 5 years of the previous:
  • Fine of up to $1,000
  • Driver's license suspension for up to 1 year

In addition to the fines and driver's license suspension, driving over 100 mph will also result in 2 points being added to your driving record. If you accumulate a certain number of points within a specific period, you could be designated a negligent operator, which results in a suspension or revocation of driving privileges.

A person is classified as a negligent operator if they receive:

• 4 or more points in 1 year
• 6 points in 2 years
• 8 points in 3 years 

Points remain on a person's driving record for anywhere from 3 years, 3 months to 13 years, and the information is accessible to the public. This means if a current or potential employer pulls your driving record and sees that you have points, your employment could be affected. Additionally, your insurance rates could increase because of the number of points on your record.
