57% of tyres are underinflated on Britain’s roads. Add in the extra weight of holiday luggage, friends and family and longer journeys, and you could be at risk of a catastrophic failure. Don’t start your holiday stuck at the side of the road. Check your tyres now. #CheckTyres

If you as a driver think using a phone whilst driving is ok, click the link. See the devastation and death it causes. Not just to the victims & their families, but also emergency workers who pick the pieces up! Leave the phone alone. #RoadSafety bbc.com/news/uk-england-tyne…

Have you heard about the 'Dutch Reach'? It helps to protect other road users when drivers open their car doors. Make sure you look over your shoulder before opening your door. A bike could so easily be in your blind spot. #LookOutForEachOther

School's out for summer! ☀️ More children are likely to be out and about, and it's everyone's responsibility to keep them safe. Drivers, slow down and look for pedestrians and cyclists on the road. Parents, don't forget to remind your kids about road safety.

The summer months are often very tough on vehicles, as they have to battle baking sun, busy traffic, and humid conditions 🥵 If temperatures are to go as high as around 40°c people should question their decision to drive in the first place 👉 fal.cn/3qhAJ

The sun can be blinding for drivers at this time of year. Make sure your washer bottle is topped up and your screen is clear, and keep a pair of sunglasses handy. Slow down and watch for cyclists and pedestrians, especially if your view is hampered by the glare.

This is an X-ray of someone who was involved in an RTC - with their feet on the dash. Just don’t. Ever. Airbags deploy through a dash panel at 200 MPH. Imagine your knees into your face at 200 MPH following an RTC - the end. #RoadSafety
