Greater Manchester Police officers have shamed multiple motorists for driving at what they called 'stupid speeds' in the early hours of this morning (wednesday, January 18). Some were clocked doing more than double the speed limit, despite the icy conditions last night.
The incidents happened on a busy Oldham roadm even though a yellow weather warning for snow and ice is in place. The traffic officers were conducting Night Time Speed Enforcement on Ashton Road.
It was a wintry night with sleet and snow falling in quite a few areas of Greater Manchester. But police say they "dealt with a number of drivers" who were clocked at "stupid speeds".
