Speeding Over 100 MPH Under CVC 22348(b)

Ticket Crushers | Traffic Ticket Attorneys in the San Francisco Bay Area & Southern California

If you were cited for Speeding over 100 mph under California Vehicle Code Section 22348(b), then contact an experienced traffic tickets attorney in the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California at Ticket Crushers.

The fine for violation of CVC Section 22348(b) is $880. A conviction will result in the DMV adding two points to your driving record. The charge means that the driver is accused of driving in excess of 100 mph. It is one of the most serious traffic infractions heard in traffic court.

Even for a first offense, the court can suspend your driving privileges for up to 30 days if you are convicted. Related offenses may include:

  • Criminal offenses for reckless driving
  • Engaging in a speed contest
  • Improper exhibition of speed

Although the fine is high, getting two points on your driving record can be much more expensive because it can cause your insurance premiums to rise for the next three to five years. The court usually requires a mandatory court appearance for a violation of California’s Vehicle Code Section 22348(b).
