Almost One in Ten Drivers Speeding Shortly After Passing Speed Cameras, Study Finds

New figures have revealed that nearly one in ten drivers were found to be speeding just 100 metres after passing a speed camera. The study, conducted by Churchill Motor Insurance, found some drivers were guilty of travelling at almost double the speed limit in the short stretch of road after the camera.

The study observed nearly 13,500 cars passing through speed cameras in 30mph zones across London, Edinburgh, and Cardiff. Astonishingly, more than 1,000 drivers were caught breaking the speed limit within seconds of passing the camera.
