What are the Penalties for Speeding in Ohio?

For instance, speeding, which can occur by driving at an unreasonable and unsafe speed or by violating a posted speed limit, is punishable by the following based on the driver’s previous convictions:

• First and second offenses – a minor misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $150
• Third offense (within 1 year) – a fourth-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to 30 days in jail and/or a maximum fine of $250
• Fourth or subsequent offense (within 1 year) – a third-degree misdemeanor punishable by up to 60 days in jail and/or a maximum fine of $500
