Two of Britain’s worst speeding offenders have been caught going as fast as 146mph on the M25 near Kent.

One offender was caught on camera travelling anti-clockwise at junction 5 near Westerham, while the other was captured on film going clockwise at Swanley.

Compiled by the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) following a Freedom of Information (FOI) Act request, the figures for England and Wales in 2014 also showed three other incidents in which drivers were recorded travelling at 140mph or more.

One of the worst examples of speeding was on the 30mph-limit London Road in East Grinstead in West Sussex where one driver was recorded doing 128mph.

Of the 36 England and Wales police forces who responded to the FOI request, all but six recorded top speeds of more than 110mph in 2014.
