Police caught several drivers going more than 100mph on Wiltshire roads.
Roads policing units from Wiltshire Police spent some of their Saturday afternoon in the south of the county, keeping an eye out for motorists who were speeding or had vehicles that were not roadworthy.
This follows earlier work by the police force which included catching a Mercedes driver going 120mph on the M4 near Swindon a few weeks ago.
A spokesman for Wiltshire Specialist Operations said that it was a busy afternoon, with drivers being stopped and given papers summoning them to court for having dodgy tyres, strange flashing lights, and overly-tinted windows on their cars.
The most reckless offender drove at 110mph with window tints "that gave the same visibility as cardboard".
The police spokesman added: "Enjoy the sun but slow down please."
Wiltshire Police is cracking down on dangerous drivers as part of its Fatal Five awareness campaign, which focuses on the five most common causes of deadly road accidents - speeding, using a mobile phone at the wheel, drink or drug driving, and driving without due care and attention.
