Readers have been reacting to the police's clamp down on dangeorus drivers.

Officers in Cumbria are taking part in a two weeklong national NPCC operation to tackle speeding in the county beginning on the July 26.

Messages have already been issued over the last week on social media to educate drivers around speeding.

Speed is one of the fatal four factors that can contribute to serious injury or fatal road traffic collisions, the faster someone drives the less time they have to stop if something unexpected happens.

Across the week officers will be educating and enforcing drivers who are caught speeding.

Here is what you had to say.

Scott Blagg said: "Will Cumbria Police be dealing with those that sit at 40mph in a NSL then continue at 40mph through a 30mph zone?

"Cars that pull out at Keswick forcing you to take avoiding action then taking the next road on the left?

"Caravans that are dangerously overload swerving in lane?

"I'm all for road safety, there are many aspects that require action.

"As an advanced driver I've spoken to a very nice roads policing officer, they do a cracking job, [there] just needs to be more education of certain drivers not just a money making project."

Sarah Nugent said: "Well yesterday I couldn't believe my eyes, a man standing at the crossing with a pram went to cross and the car in front of me jumped a red light. 

"What kind of idiot does that, especially when you can see someone is about to cross the road with a baby?"

Brett High adds humour: "You don’t want to ‘wage war’ on anybody who can speed while avoiding all the abandoned cars, cyclists and tourists slowing folk down on the roads, ideal delivery driver material."
