Rise in speeding fines

The number of speeding fines issued in Stirling have almost tripled in the last year.

That's according to data obtained by a Freedom of Information request from Central FM.

The figures come from Police Scotland.

Nearly 4,000 fixed penalty notices were issued in the year to August in Stirling.

That's up from around 1400 the year before.
