It has been said that police time is being wasted trapping and prosecuting 'innocent' drivers - time that could be better spent catching 'real' criminals. Statistically 'real' criminals - apart from murderers - rarely kill people, but speeding motorists do! 

Research has shown that nationally speeding is a major contributory factor in 32% of all road crashes. This means that excessive and inappropriate speed helped to kill 13,543 people in 2006. That’s 37 people killed every day! 

FACES4 is committed to changing driver behavior and attitudes toward speeding. 

But what can you do about it?

• As a passenger you can ask the driver to slow down.
• Remember that speed limits are a maximum, not a target.
• Maintain the speed limits during both day and night.
• Set realistic journey times.
•  Don’t be pressured by tailgaters to speed.

     Above all else, remember reduced speed saves lives!
