Well done #NorthernIreland👏🏻 The evidence is clear - Graduated Driving Licenses save lives. I’ll continue to work with @VisionZeroWY @alison_4life @ian_m_greenwood and campaigners on this hugely important issue #GDLs #VisionZero #RoadSafety

Think you can stop safely? New TyreSafe research says 83% of drivers believe they’re in control of their stopping distance, but just 6% correctly understand how much extra distance is needed in the wet at motorway speeds.
Check your tyres using ACT:
Air pressure. Condition. Tread depth.
Act before you REact.

Improving road safety, upskilling young people and tackling issues such as serious violence are key priorities.
It was fantastic to visit @bumpyltd this week to see their work with @WestYorksPolice delivering practical sessions on motorbike maintenance, safety, and life skills.

Behind every collision is a life.
Drivers, always look out for motorcyclists and cyclists before you pull out at junctions.

#TalkAboutRoadDeath
Thanks to @micklesb for highlighting the risks involved with young driver collisions & for the need to better support them.
#GDL is still the only answer which can significantly reduce deaths & injuries - and remember 50% of people impacted are strangers
For my latest video report, I've spoken to @ian_m_greenwood - who campaigns tirelessly to improve road safety following the tragic death of his much-loved daughter Alice❤️

Yesterday we had the pleasure of visiting Temple Moor High School as part of Road Safety Week with our Split Second road safety initiative for Year 7 students.
The students were fantastic-fully engaged, asking great questions, and responding brilliantly throughout the session. We also received excellent feedback from teachers, which means a lot to our team and reinforces the value of delivering road safety education through interactive theatre.
A huge thank you to the school, the talented actors, and our partners @VisionZeroWY their continued support in helping us bring these important messages to young people.
🎥 Watch this short video with highlights from the visit.
