Road Safety West Mercia

Everyone knows the laws around driving with alcohol or drugs in your system and the majority of us do the right thing. So why do some still insist on risking it?

Since 1st December 152 people have failed a roadside breath or drugs test.

Don't risk it!

#OpLimit

Most people know it makes sense to stay alcohol free when driving.

Following a national survey 91% agreed drink driving was unacceptable and 92% said they would feel ashamed if they were caught drinking and driving.

Driving this Christmas? Don’t risk it! #OpLimit

Reducing collisions and casualties on our roads remains a year-round priority for the force.
We are supporting national #RoadSafetyWeek this week to raise awareness of road safety as well as highlighting the devastating toll of road death and injury. @Brakecharity

Today is World Day of Remembrance for road crash victims, as well as the start of national #RoadSafetyWeek. Every death or serious injury on our roads is one too many. Today, as always, our thoughts are with the individuals, families, friends & communities affected by collisions.

Every 20 minutes, someone is hit by an uninsured or hit-and-run driver. Driving whilst uninsured is something that we address 24/7 but this week we are supporting the national Op Drive Insured.
