Yes for speeding and seat belt offences (i.e. not wearing one).

Regarding earlier post on motorbike licences - the UK one is fully transferable (same as the car) and having commuted on one for the last year I'd recommend it. My travel time into Sydney CBD has more than halved (now 30 minutes) as I can legally use the transit and bus lanes to sail past the lines of traffic on the harbour bridge and around the city.
