**The top 20 speeding offence locations** in the West Midlands have been revealed.

Numbers for the 20 worst speeding hotspots in 2020 were given by West Midlands Police, following [an FOI request on their website](https://foi.west-midlands.police.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/1153A%5Fattachment.pdf?ref=birminghameastside.co.uk).

**34,253** speeding offences were clocked by the police across all 20 locations - and Birmingham's local M6 motorway accounts for **over 16,000** of them.

The [minimum speeding penalty is £100](https://www.gov.uk/speeding-penalties?ref=birminghameastside.co.uk), with 3 points added to your license. Offenders can be given a speed awareness course in some circumstances instead.

The fines issued for all of these offences in 2020 could be around **£3.5 million.**
