Every effort is made to ensure that the data provided by Essex Police is accurate and complete. However, Essex Police systems are designed primarily for the management of individual cases and not for the purposes of providing data to answer specific FOI enquiries. Please note although data can be extracted from a number of sources via database queries, the results may be subject to inaccuracies. Care should be taken to understand our return when considering the interpretation or further use of the data.
Essex Police work with Essex Highways closely through the Safer Essex Roads Partnership (SERP). SERP comprises Essex Police, Essex County Council, Southend-On-Sea Borough Council, Thurrock Council, Essex Fire and Rescue Services, Highways England and Essex and Hearts Air Ambulance Trust. The below link may be of interest to you:
Most speeding offences are dealt with by way of Fixed Penalty Notice or Driver Awareness Training and only where the case is disputed and goes to court would a “fine” be issued. You may wish to directly approach the HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS) who hold data regarding speeding fines, fine income and prosecutions – please see below link:
