Where speeds are "found to be inappropriate" police officers send a letter to the registered owner of the vehicle to encourage them to reduce their speed, the force said.The schemes were introduced to address community concerns in areas which did not meet speed or crash criteria for police-led enforcement, it added.The schemes can be introduced if certain criteria were already in place, including that the area had a 30mph or 40mph speed restriction, police said.
