Scotland's Road Safety Framework

Enforcement of speed limits / Highway Code

The Police and Fire Reform (Scotland) Act 2012 stipulates that the Chief Constable of Police Scotland is responsible for the policing of Scotland, and is accountable to the Scottish Police Authority for this, rather than to Scottish Ministers directly. These arrangements are in place to ensure public confidence that the police act independently, free from unwarranted Ministerial interference. Therefore, you may wish to direct your concerns to your local police office using the non-emergency number 101, or by contacting Police Scotland online.
