Waec Model Questions Vol1 2024 Civic Education Question 37
Practice objective / multiple choice question 37 from the 2024 Waec Model Questions Vol1 Civic Education examination.
The speed limit on a highway is 80 km/h. A driver exceeded the limit by \(x\) km/h. The monetary penalty is ₦500 for each km/h over the limit, plus a surcharge of 10% of the total penalty if the excess exceeds 20 km/h. The driver also receives one demerit point for each km/h over the limit; a driver is suspended if points exceed 12. The driver claims that if he had reduced his speed by 5 km/h, the total monetary penalty would have been reduced by exactly ₦2,500, and his demerit points would have been exactly 12. Determine the driver's original excess speed \(x\) and state whether his licence would be suspended.
