| Billionaire Clive Palmer is set to face court after refusing to pay a speeding fine he received on the Gold Coast in January.
Mr Palmer was issued with a $333 fine after police said his Mercedes-Benz was caught travelling 21kmh over the speed limit on Oxley Drive, Biggera Waters on January 27, a spokesman for the mining billionaire said this morning.
ββHe is disputing it,ββ the spokesman said.
Mr Palmer's staff told police he intended to contest the fine and would apply to court to have the ticket stayed and the case re-opened, the Gold Coast Bulletin reported.
Speeding fines for offences between 21kmh and 30kmh over the limit attract a $333 fine and the loss of four demerit points in Queensland.
