No puns on this one. #RPU stopped a young lad today, two months after passing his test. His father in the car telling him to ‘see what it can do’. Speeding is no joke, it is a #fatal5 offence for a reason. It can kill, especially the inexperienced. Please drive safe all.

#RPU carried out a follow check on a BMW, which reached speeds of up to 77mph in a 40mph limit. The driver said he just wanted to get home quickly. However, after providing a positive drugwipe for cannabis, the only place he's going is custody #arrested #fatal5 @DrugWipeUK
