Statistics

AutoSpeedWatch is all about identifying to the police the worst and most persistent speeders, so it deliberately records only those vehicles excessively over the speed limit.  It provides police with an intelligence-led method of significantly improving road safety, and therefore saving lives.

With the help of CSW members, the system automatically identifies the vehicles persistently causing the greatest safety threats.  The story so far:
