P

ERCENTILES

 

The 85% percentile is an indicator that helps indicate the behaviour of the 

majority

 of drivers. 

It reflects the speed respected by 85% of motorists and is obtained by stripping out the bottom 
and top & bottom 7.5% of speeds recorded (i.e. strips out the extremely fast and extremely 
slow vehicles)

 

 

 

 
If the 85% threshold is is close 
to 

the 

average 

speed 

recorded,  this  indicates  that 
the speeds observed on a road 
are consistent. I 
 
f it is 

not

 close to the average 

speed,  this  means  that  a 
significant proportion of drivers 
are 

above 

the 

average 

recorded speed.
