You won't get 3 points deducted when you exceed the speed limit by equal or less than 15km/h then you will be fine
i.e. on a 50km/h zone, you can do up to 65km/h, only fine, no point deducted (usually they would allow 3km/h error, ie they would consider 65km/h as 62km/h).

case 1: If the road is 50KM limit, the police can caught you is you drive at 55km in theory (55km - 4km tolerance = 51km, which is already speeding). Then you will be fined with $320 and no need to deduct points.
case 2: If you drive at 69km at a 50km zone, you are overspeed for 15km after counting the tolerance, fine = $320 no points deduction.
case 3: If you drive at 70km at a 50km zone, you are overspeed for 16km after counting the tolerance, fine = $450 3 points deduction.
case 4: If you drive at 84km at a 50km zone, you are overspeed for 30km after counting the tolerance, fine = $450 3 points deduction.
Similar for other road limit.
Last time, when I was caught at Kwai Chung going uphill on a bridge. The police said the limit is 50 and I am driving at 92 (88km after tolerance),so 5 points gone. I have argued with him that the bridge is 70km limit wor,(looking way to deduct 3 points rather than 5 points) but he said I did not reach the 70km zone yet when I was shot.....
Nothing to say immediately....

And case 2 should be $450 fine, no point deducted.

I know most of the time if doing over 9km they dont stop you.
