No excuse for speeding
Maybe you drive the same road twice a day. You’re running late for work. Or you’re just overtaking the person in front. Driving over the speed limit might seem harmless enough. But when you know the consequences, you realise there’s no excuse for speeding.

A world-first: using neuroscience to stop speeding
It’s a fact: 50% of speeding crashes happen at just 1-10km/h over the speed limit. Despite this, many road users still speed and it can have enormous consequences. It’s even more dangerous if you’re distracted and not watching the road.
