I got a sppeding ticket for going over 18km/h above limit however no Set Fine/Total Payable is shown on the Offence Notice.
What should I do under these circumstances.
Since amount is not shown, is there anything that would help in not paying any fine/getting demerit points or not getting a conviction.

That should result in the ticket being quashed.
Your choices to deal with it are to speak to the prosecutor about it, take it to trial, or allow the prosecutor to try to enter a 9.1 conviction in your absence by failing to respond and hope the JP catches the error and quashes it. If they don't you'd have to appeal.
The 1st 2 choices are easier, since they don't run the risk of you having to appeal, but it may also give the prosecutor a chance to amend the ticket.
These options have been discusses elsewhere on this forum in more detail.
