In light of news that 20mph speed cameras are launching across the UK, Car Insurance Expert at Confused.com Alex Kindred says:
“Our research shows that almost four in five (79%) drivers admit to having broken the speed limit at some point. Although some motorists might feel that speed limits are an inconvenience, they’re there to ensure our roads are safe for all – particularly in areas with narrow roads, schools, and hospitals.
“If caught speeding, motorists could land themselves with a ticket, points on their license or even be asked to attend a speed awareness course. If you’re faced with a fine, there’s a chance that it could be calculated based on your salary so it could be heftier than you first think.
“Obeying speed limits in your area will help to keep all road users safe. If you’re unsure about the rules of the road when it comes to cameras and speed limits, our guide on speeding FAQs can help.”
