We took to Facebook to ask readers to tell us what they thought were Portsmouth’s worst roads for speeding – and these are the results.

The minimum penalty for speeding is a £100 fine and three penalty points added to a driver’s licence.
Drivers can also be disqualified if they gain 12 or more penalty points within three years.
