Vision Zero South West are committed to making our roads safer for all road users – so that residents and visitors can use the roads with confidence, free from death or injury.

Alongside enforcement and engineering, education plays a vital part in reducing risk and the number of incidents on our roads.

This guide has been produced to provide accurate and informative advice to all road users about how they can be even safer on the roads.

We all like to think we are safe road users and we rarely make mistakes, but around 90% of all incidents are caused by human error.

Make an effort to consider your own attitude and how this might affect others on the road. Even the most experienced people make mistakes. Having a mutual understanding and respect between all road users will ultimately lead to a culture of courtesy and care that will make our roads safer for everyone.

So please, take the time to read and refer to this guide, and share it with family and friends, so we can work together to make our roads even safer.
