DVLA figures cited by the outlets show that drivers aged 45 to 64 account for the largest share of speeding-related penalty points. In the latest year reported, 43% of the penalty points awarded for speeding offences go to drivers in the 45–64 age group. The same data shows that younger drivers receive a smaller proportion: drivers aged 17 to 34 account for 22% of speeding-related penalty points. The reporting frames the figures as indicating that middle-aged drivers dominate the distribution of points for speeding, with a notably lower share among the youngest group mentioned. The sources attribute the figures to the UK’s Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) and present the age-group percentages as shares of drivers who receive speeding-related points and the points they receive. The articles do not provide further breakdowns, such as numbers of offences by age group, average speeds, or enforcement patterns, beyond the proportions reported by the DVLA.
