Road Safety - What can I do?
Road safety starts with you and me.
Your contribution to Road Safety could be:
- Reading the road ahead and anticipating potentially dangerous situations.
- Always using your safety belt/helmet/bicycle lamps/reflective armbands and/or Sam Brown belt.
- Never allowing children to use the front seat of your car but rather the back and fitting proper child safety seats where warranted.
- Always using the roads with care, courtesy and consideration for other road users.
- Never drinking and driving.
- Replacing that blown headlamp or other bulb today.
- Righting a twisted road sign.
- Flashing an approaching motorist of a danger unseen to him/her.
- Parking carefully, including appropriate lighting if during lighting up time.
- Cleaning all your vehicle windows of snow, frost, condensation before driving.
- Not hanging silly distracting toys on your rear view mirror.
- Replacing that bald or borderline tyre today
- Having your brakes, steering, lights, tyres, etc., checked regularly.
- Stopping to remove that stone, or other obstruction, from the road rather than driving around it.
- Expecting the unexpected at schools/school buses, etc.
and the list goes on...
It is the seemingly obvious and simple things that can make the difference between life and possibly death or serious injury.
