Västerbotten's roads are well-patrolled by speed cameras, and news site Newsworthy has compiled data revealing the stretches where drivers are most likely to get caught. 

Last year saw 11,081 speeding incidents reported in the county, which is actually a decrease compared to previous years.

Possible reasons for the decline include staff turnover and recruitment challenges within the relevant police unit.

Interestingly, in recent years, only around a third of these incidents have resulted in fines or penalties.
