Abstract

This paper considers the effect of speed on road safety and how to influence speeding behaviour. The results that can be achieved through police enforcement combined with information campaigns are discussed with reference to projects carried out in the Netherlands. The cost implications are considered. Principal barriers to police enforcement measures are then examined including the low priority given to traffic offences and the professional culture of the police. A police information plan is then put forward.
