How many points is a driver assessed for exceeding the speed limit by more than 15 mph?

  1. 1

  2. 2

  3. 4

  4. 6

The correct answer is: 6

The driver is assessed with 6 points for exceeding the speed limit by more than 15 mph. This is considered a serious traffic violation and can result in a significant increase in insurance premiums or even license suspension. The other options of 1, 2, and 4 points are incorrect because they are typically the penalties for lesser offenses such as minor traffic violations. It is important to adhere to speed limits to ensure the safety of yourself and others on the road, as well as avoid accruing points on your license.
