Late one Sunday night, police clocked a vehicle tearing through at jaw-dropping speed. The fallout? Massive fines, a confiscated license, and a car sidelined for months. Here’s what went down and why it’s got everyone talking. [NSW Expands Average Speed Camera Trial to All VehiclesNSW is expanding average speed cameras to all vehicles in 2025, aiming to reduce road fatalities. A trial will begin on key highways mid-year.![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/icon/CarExplore-Favicon-1202.ico)CarExploreDylan Anderson![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/thumbnail/NSW-Speed-Camera-Locations-point-1-3.webp)](https://www.carexplore.com.au/nsw-expands-average-speed-camera-trial-to-all-vehicles/) ## Caught in the Act It was just before 10 p.m. on February 23, 2025, when [Brisbane Water Highway Patrol](https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1E7P25X7Ny/) set up a speed trap along the Scenic Highway in Terrigal. A northbound Holden Commodore utility roared past, clocked at 135km/h in a 70km/h zone. That’s nearly double the limit, and officers didn’t hesitate to pull it over. ## The Driver’s Big Mistake Behind the wheel was a 24-year-old local from Terrigal, holding a Provisional 2 (P2) license. For P2 drivers, speeding this fast isn’t just reckless; it’s a major violation. Police hit him with a brutal penalty: a $2,959 fine and six demerit points. His license? Gone on the spot, suspended for six months. Even his car took a hit, with its plates seized and sent back to Service NSW for three months.

With patrols cracking down hard, this bust shows how fast things can spiral. Losing a license and plates doesn’t just sting the wallet; it’s a life-changer for anyone relying on their wheels. The Scenic Highway, a popular coastal stretch, isn’t built for triple-digit speeds, making this catch a stark reminder of the risks. ## Roads Under Watch Highway Patrol isn’t messing around. Stationary speed checks like this one pop up across NSW, nailing drivers who push limits. This wasn’t a one-off; it’s part of a broader push to curb dangerous driving. With fines this steep and penalties piling up, the message is loud: slow down or pay up.
