Because it makes a better figure for a headline ?

I suspect that most drivers will brake before crashing, therefore if they were speeding before the accident then they probably won't be by the time they actually hit something. From what others posted a while ago, I think they need to do a full investigation for speed to be recorded as part of the cause.

Interesting link to the stats 19 stuff. Is the 'raw' data as completed by traffic pols publically available?

Can't do that Dave!
How else are my mates going to keep their performance figures up if they can't catch a slack handful of speeders every week!?
