A 29-year-old man from the Fraserburgh area has been charged in connection with dangerous driving after a vehicle was recorded travelling at 83mph in a 30mph limit within the town.
The speed was recorded on South Harbour Road, Fraserburgh around 9.30pm on Monday, 19 December.
The man is subject of a report to the Procurator Fiscal and will appear at Peterhead Sheriff Court at a later date.
Road Policing Sergeant Steve Manson said: “Travelling at high speeds in residential areas is especially dangerous, particularly when roads are affected by rain and low temperatures as your chances of being involved in a crash are increased.
"The consequences of crashing in these circumstances can be devastating and simply not worth the risk. Anyone convicted of dangerous driving will face a mandatory driving ban.”
