ACT Policing has warned Canberra drivers double demerit penalties are in place over the Queen's Birthday long weekend.
Two traffic infringement notices were issued on Saturday to drivers travelling about 45km/h over the speed limit, police said.
The first driver was detected doing 122km/h in an 80km/h zone on Gungahlin Drive at Franklin about 5.50pm. The driver was issued a $700 fine and eight demerit points.
The second incident occurred about 11pm, when police caught a vehicle travelling at 115km/h in a 60km/h zone on Copland Drive at Evatt.
The driver was stopped and received a $1841 fine and 12 demerit points, effectively losing their licence.
Double demerit points are in place in the ACT for speeding and seatbelt offences until midnight on Monday night.
