Speeding by police vehicles tracked with GPS

Barry Murphy made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

The request was partially successful.

From: Barry Murphy

Dear New Zealand Police,

I'd like to understand for the last 12 month period individually by month, how many police vehicles have gone over the speed limit by 4km/h or more. I assume these vehicles are GPS tracked, so the data should be readily available. If at all possible, I'd also like to know if they were engaged in a pursuit or have an active critical job when doing so.

I am trying to gauge how many police vehicles are travelling above the posted speed limit and not being on an urgent case requiring speeding to save lives as I have witnessed speeding above 4km/h on many occasions in the past and would like to understand why common people dont have any tolerance.

Yours faithfully,

Barry
