Land Rover drivers have been named as the biggest speeders on public roads, according to research by car insurance company Confused.com.

The website found that 26 per cent of motorists that drove a Land Rover Discovery had broken the speed limit on a public road whilst the company's Range Rover Sport model was top of the list for breaking speed laws on the motorway.

Ford Galaxy Zetec was found to be the top vehicle in which motorists would use a handheld device whilst driving; the survey revealed that 1.94 per cent of people were guilty of this offence.

Land Rover recently unveiled a range of six new models with the latest Sport vehicle retailing at Ł48,795.

Gareth Kloet, head of car insurance at Confused.com says: "The rules of the road are designed to help shape our driving habits and to maximise road safety. Keeping on the right side of the law will obviously help to not only minimise the cost of your insurance but also help keep you on the road and keep the roads safe".
