Officers target Derbyshire speeders

Police officials in Derbyshire are to crack down on speeders on local roads as part of a month-long scheme, a news source has reported.

The BBC has stated that officers from across the region will carry out more checks on drivers as well as hand out £60 fines and fixed penalty notices with greater frequency.

It could be that motorists found breaking the law in such a manner struggle to pick up cheap car insurance policies in the future.

This is because some cover firms may judge them to be a risk on the road and increase prices as a result.

"There can be no doubt that exceeding the speed limit or simply driving too fast for the road conditions is a contributory cause of many road collisions," commented Derbyshire Police chief inspector Lynn Harris.
