Any speed over the speed limit within the first 10 m.p.h. is a fifty (50) dollar fine. The violator is accessed an additional $10.00 for each m.p.h. over ten m.p.h. For example, if the speed limit is 35 m.p.h. and a violator is stopped for traveling 50 m.p.h., the fine would be $100.00. Also, there is an additional $25.00 surcharge added to ALL speeding tickets for the Head Injury Fund. This is required by the Massachusetts State Legislature.
