Read this before relying on a number
- This is an informational lookup, not a decision. It reports the published demerit points and composition amount for a speed and vehicle class. The Traffic Police decide whether to offer composition, and the court decides the penalty in the two highest bands.
- The demerit points are Driver Improvement Points System (DIPS) thresholds under the Road Traffic Act 1961. Points can build toward a suspension or revocation, so a high-points offence matters beyond the immediate amount.
- From 1 January 2026, a School Zone, Silver Zone, or Friendly Streets zone offence carries an extra 2 demerit points and $100 on the composition amount, capped at $500. That addition does not apply to the court bands.
- Speeding more than 40 km/h over the limit is not compoundable and is prosecuted in court, which sets its own penalty.
How the Bands Work
Singapore sets speeding penalties in five bands by how far the recorded speed exceeded the posted limit. Each band carries a fixed number of demerit points under the Road Traffic Act 1961 and the Driver Improvement Points System (DIPS) Rules, and, in the three lower bands, a composition amount at which the Traffic Police may compound the offence instead of prosecuting it. Heavy vehicles (maximum laden weight over 3,500 kg) pay a higher composition amount than light vehicles in each of those bands.
The band boundaries are read on an inclusive upper bound. Exactly 20 km/h over is the first band; exactly 30 is the second; exactly 40 is the third; exactly 50 is the fourth; and anything above 50 is the fifth. The first band is 6 demerit points, rising through 8 and 12 points in the compoundable bands, to 18 and 24 points in the two court bands.
Because the points are DIPS thresholds, a speeding offence does more than cost the immediate amount: the points build toward a possible suspension or revocation. See the Singapore demerit points guide for how the points accumulate and when they are wiped.
Enhanced Zones and Court Bands
From 1 January 2026, a speeding offence committed in a School Zone, Silver Zone, or Friendly Streets zone carries an additional 2 demerit points and $100 on the composition amount, with the composition amount capped at $500. That addition applies only to the compoundable bands. It does not apply to the two court bands, where there is no composition amount for it to be added to.
Speeding more than 40 km/h over the limit is not compoundable. It is prosecuted in court, which sets the penalty and can order a fine, disqualification, or imprisonment on top of the demerit points. For the offences and the wider penalty picture, see the full Singapore speeding fines guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a speeding fine in Singapore?
It depends on how far over the limit you were and your vehicle class. For a light vehicle the composition amount is S$200 up to 20 km/h over, S$300 for more than 20 up to 30, and S$400 for more than 30 up to 40. Heavy vehicles pay S$250, S$400, and S$500 for the same bands. More than 40 km/h over is not compoundable and is prosecuted in court.
How many demerit points is speeding in Singapore?
Speeding carries 6 demerit points up to 20 km/h over the limit, 8 points for more than 20 up to 30, 12 points for more than 30 up to 40, 18 points for more than 40 up to 50, and 24 points for more than 50 km/h over.
What happens if you speed more than 40 km/h over the limit in Singapore?
Speeding more than 40 km/h over the limit is not compoundable. It is prosecuted in court, which sets the penalty and can impose a fine, disqualification from driving, or imprisonment, in addition to 18 or 24 demerit points.
How much extra is a speeding fine in a school or silver zone?
From 1 January 2026, a speeding offence in a School Zone, Silver Zone, or Friendly Streets zone carries an extra 2 demerit points and $100 on the composition amount, with the composition amount capped at $500. The enhanced-zone addition does not apply to the court bands above 40 km/h over.
Do heavy vehicles pay more for speeding in Singapore?
Yes. In the compoundable bands a heavy vehicle (maximum laden weight over 3,500 kg) pays a higher composition amount than a light vehicle: S$250, S$400, and S$500 against S$200, S$300, and S$400 for the same speed bands. The demerit points are the same for both.
