Three Porsche drivers were caught speeding at almost 100mph on the NC500 over the weekend.
Police officers have been doing speed checks all along the popular Highlands tourist route to “detect and deter irresponsible and dangerous behaviour”.
Cops say they took proactive patrols over Saturday and Sunday after “a spell of good weather”.
Officers were stationed on the A890 near Ledgowan where three Porsche drivers were caught speeding at 99mph.
The drivers have now been issued “serious penalties”.
Constable Smith, of Police Scotland, said: “Driving or riding at these speeds drastically reduces reaction time.
“Excessive speed is one of the five most prevalent causation factors in serious and fatal collisions.
“All of these drivers now face serious penalties.
“We remain committed to improving road safety across the Highlands and Islands.”
