Derbyshire Police Safer Neighbourhood Team Officers have recently been out conducting extra speed checks. 

Over the weekend a total of 10 motorists were caught speeding, with the highest being a motorcyclist dangerously doing 95mph on the A57 Snake Pass. 

The team want to remind motorists of the ‘Fatal Four’, which are the specific offences attributed to a significant amount of fatal road traffic collisions: 

The Fatal Four: 

1) Not wearing a seatbelt 

2) Using a mobile phone whilst driving 

3) Exceeding the speed limit 

4) Driving under the influence of drink or drugs
