Cars and other light vehicles
Driving is a convenient way to travel for those journeys where other sustainable options aren't possible.
What can you do to reduce the risk?
- Wear your seatbelt on every trip
- Ensure children are correctly restrained on every trip
- Choose the safest vehicle suitable for your needs
- Travel within posted speed limits and at speeds appropriate for the conditions
- Follow the 2 second and 4 second rule when following another vehicle
- Allow a 1.5 meter gap when passing a cyclist
- Keep your vehicle well maintained and up to WOF standards at all times
- Try a TWIRL check: check tyres, wipers, indicators, restraints and lights
