FOI reference: FOI-2025-3185
You asked
I am requesting a breakdown of the total number of vehicle speeding offences recorded (offence count) across the UK, as well as the measured speeds and vehicle make. We want to know how many speeding offences there were that exceeded 112mph
We request the data for the period 1 September 2024 to 31 August 2025 (or the most recent 12-month period that you can access).
To confirm, please provide me with a CSV (or Excel) table listing every recorded speeding enforcement where a speed was recorded (camera capture, traffic officer issue or TOR) between 1 September 2024 to 31 August 2025, including these fields:
- date
- time
- location
- vehicle manufacturer
- recorded/measured speed (mph)
If you cannot provide the full table, please provide:
- the number of recorded speeding offences where the measured speed was greater than 112 mph (same date range as above or most recent 12-month period)
- and the total number of recorded speeding offences (any speed in the same period)
