A driver may be summoned to court after being caught "speeding" in a Wheathampstead hotspot.
On Monday morning (February 23), a motorist was given a traffic offence report for allegedly speeding in Marford Road.
The car, which was suspected to be travelling at 44mph in a 30mph limit at 9.45am, was pulled over by Student PC Thomas Patrick under the guidance of PCs Jem Oliver and Iffy Iqbal.

The driver may be sent on a drivers’ improvement course, fined, given points on his licence or could be summonsed directly to court.
Previously, multiple motorists have been stopped on Marford Road. In September 2025, one driver was summoned to court after driving at 47mph and being caught by a speed gun.
Another incident occurred in May last year, and many drivers were also given "strong words of advice" during a speeding crackdown on the road.

In a separate incident on Monday afternoon, a silver Ford was seized after being flagged as having no insurance on Lower Luton Road in Harpenden.
A Facebook post by the force said commented: "Great work by Student PC Thomas Patrick, who spotted the vehicle. With support from PCs Iffy Iqbal and Jem Oliver, the car was safely brought to a stop in St Martins Close."
The driver – a man aged in his 20s from Luton – has been reported for having no insurance and will be attending court at a later date.
