You asked
Can you please supply me with the figures for deaths caused by speeding in Wales for the first quarter of 2024.
We said
Thank you for your enquiry.
Unfortunately we do hold this information. The number of causing death or serious injury through unlawful driving offences recorded by the police in England and Wales can be found in table A4a of our 'Crime in England and Wales: appendix tables. However, we are not able to separately identify the number of fatalities in road traffic incidents that were the result of speeding.
The Department for Transport (DfT) publish data on reported road casualties in Great Britain; the latest of which are for 2023 and are available here. The DfT can be contacted about these data via: roadacc.stats@dft.gov.uk.
If you have any crime-related queries in the future, you can email crimestatistics@ons.gov.uk.
