Traffic police are targeting speeding drivers in Brighton and Hove and across the county in a week-long crackdown.
Sussex Police said that checks would be carried out at fixed enforcement sites as well as locally identified problem areas.
Sergeant Phil Duffy, from the Sussex Police Road Policing Unit, said: “Speed is one of the biggest factors in accidents on our roads.
“Throughout the week officers will be stopping speeding drivers to enforce the law.
“But it’s not just about enforcement. We will also be talking to drivers to educate those who speed about the serious consequences of their actions.
“Driving too fast for the road or the weather conditions is extremely dangerous and is a major contributory factor to many collisions.
“Speeding could also end up in you seriously injuring or even killing yourself or others.”
The week-long campaign started yesterday (Monday 16 April) and runs until Sunday (22 April).
Sussex Police said that speeding or dangerous drivers could be reported by dialling 101 or visiting the Operation Crackdown website at www.operationcrackdown.org.
