The voices of these young people affected by the “madness” of a young driver crash which resulted in the death of Eleanor McGrath at the age of 14, and serious injuries of her friends, is brave and impactful. Gill and John McGrath speak powerfully about the avoidable death of their daughter, and the young driver ends the piece from jail with a very clear message.
Here is a short clip. But, please watch the whole video ⬇️ on @YouTube

I would suggest that Government Ministers look at this and reconsider their decision to “not considering Graduated Driving Licensing”. @Keir_Starmer @LouHaigh @LilianGreenwood @simonlightwood @Kate_Dearden

1: So my crash footage has been doing the rounds today. Hitting over 1,300shares on Facebook with 111k views. @theJeremyVine was also kind enough to share it too. I’m happy for it to be seen, provided it inspires a positive discussion about genuine road courtesy and kindness. – at Sunningdale, South East

We're horrified by these reckless and flippant comments. @BCPCouncil, please tell us how you will address this? This clip, with your branding on it, is highly damaging. Shockingly, @cllrDove is
the chair of your Children's Services Committee

Sometimes I drive there, then I'm a motorist.
Or I walk there, then I'm a pedestrian.
Or I take the bus there, then I'm on public transport.
Or I ride a bike there, then I'm a cyclist
But im always a woman, a wife, a mother, a human being - who just wants to get there alive ta.

My report ‘Empowering young drivers with road safety education’ which was published last week has now been shared via the @Road_Safety_GB network ⬇️ #YoungDriverSafety #RoadSafetyEducation
Using ‘shock and tell’ tactics to teach teenagers about the risks associated with driving does little to improve safety and may actually make things worse, a report has found.

Our gorgeous girl Caitlin. Who should be 25 today. Look at the pride + love on my face for her. We were so happy. Little did we know how our lives would change. Caitlin was tragically killed as a passenger in a fatal RTC in 2017 aged 18. @caitlinscampaign

Just some figures about speeding from a course I did .
Just think about it……
Think about this for a few minutes…
Pedestrian Survival rates:
20MPH - 97.5%
30MPH - 80%
35MPH - 50%
40MPH - 10%
Shocking isn’t it!

We were delighted @racfoundation to host the @lborouniversity ‘Fatigue Management in Transportation Information Exchange’ breakfast briefing this morning at the @RoyalAutomobile. Great to hear insights from several authors of the Handbook of Fatigue Management in Transportation

Calvin has had a huge impact this year by bravely telling his story and reminding us all of the real people behind the statistics.
Let's talk about speed. #RoadSafetyWeek
Thank you @gmpolice and @manchesterfire for all your amazing support for Road Safety Week.
🗣 “My world ended that day.”
Calvin lost his pregnant partner Frankie after a car crash in May.
Frankie was killed by a driver who was filming himself speeding at 123mph.
When you’re driving, think about the potential impacts of your actions.

I have a great fondness for the interaction with this phone driver. He was very sure of himself until the occupants of the car behind became involved 😁#InShot

On Sunday whilst out with my kids I told 4 car owners their tyres were BALD! And needed replacing…
One parent even said “I’ve just paid for a holiday, I’m skint! It will have to wait”
Let’s hope they’ve have them changed before they venture on to the motorway for the airport 😅😅
Morecambe/Lancaster/Heysham and the surrounding areas really need a Tyre Welfare check.
People really do completely disregard them. They are your only point of contact with the road. Aside from your brakes, they are the only thing that help you to STOP!
Without tread… well.

The delay caused by having to squeeze past cars that are double-parked to reach a house that’s on fire is completely unacceptable. A beloved pet was lost in this blaze today in #Saltley. This photo taken from our 🚒 as we approached. Please, please think about your parking.

Unreal video from Fairfax County Police. Officer was doing a traffic stop near Fairfax when FCPD says a 17 yr old driving a BMW M3 over 120 mph lost control & slammed into the pulled over car. It’s a miracle but no one involved was seriously hurt. Turn the sound up to hear it.
