During a road‑safety check, a driver is found to have exceeded the speed limit of 80 km/h on a 5 km stretch, with the speed recorded at 110 km/h. The traffic law imposes a fine of N5,000 for each kilometre per hour over the limit, and for every kilometre per hour over the limit beyond the first 10 km/h an additional N10,000 is added.
