Road Safety Speed Campaign

A timely message from Cheshire Police.

Think enforcement is unfair?

If we catch you it’s because you either ignored the speed limit or because you failed to notice it.

Either way we think there’s a lesson you need to learn.

"Why don't you go after the real criminals?"

Did you know over 40 people died on the roads of Cheshire last year?

We think that's worth some police time, but we'd much rather it was time we could spend elsewhere.
