Hogwash jonolism!
The above fines are contained in an amendment bill 2014 that is yet to go through the third reading!
The article says the law is broken when the speed clocked is more than 20 km/hr above limit. I found no such requirement in the traffic act.
Which Act are you reading???
Look at section 70 part 5b of the traffic Act
Quote:(5A) The driving licence of a person who has been convicted for the violation
of a speed limit prescribed for a road under subsection (1A) shall be invalidated
for a period not less than three years—
(a) if the violation of the limit is by more than twenty kilometres per hour;
and
(b) the violation is repeated three or more different times.
(5B) A person who violates a speed limit prescribed for a road under subsection
(1A) by more than twenty kilometres per hour commits an offence and shall be
liable, on conviction, to imprisonment for a term of not less than three months, or
a fine of not less than twenty thousand shillings, or both.
