Road safety concerns, in particular speeding, are consistently raised by our local communities. PC 21836 HARPER, PCSO 40593 MORRIS and PCSO 40674 PARKER have been out today conducting speed checks and enforcement at a number of locations with the areas of Wem, Harmer Hill, Hadnall and Shawbury, 

During this time we detected 23 motorists going above the posted speed limit. a number of people were stopped and spoken to with 6 reported for their speeding offences. 

Speeding can have a devastating impact on the safety of road users, increasing the risk of a collision and the severity of the consequences. If prosecuted for speeding, the minimum penalty is a £100 fine and 3 penalty points.

Enforcing the speed limit is a 24/7 activity for us. If you have concerns about speeding in you area please contact your local SNT so we can work together to help make the roads safer.
