⚠️Amber weather warning for wind and yellow weather warning for rain⚠️
Please stay alert, especially if you have a high-sided vehicle, look out for debris on the road, and take extra care if you’re passing cyclists, motorcyclists or horse riders.

Driving is a responsibility. As a driver you are accountable for your actions; drive to keep yourself and others around you free from the harm of injury.
Keep within the law, keep focused and always be mindful of other road users. Thank you.

Has another road user made you angry today?
Did the outcome of the situation drastically improve because you swore/shouted abuse/used your horn/acted aggressively back?
Everyone makes mistakes. Try not to react as it usually makes things worse - just continue your journey.
The standards require every new vehicle to satisfy 11 safety rulings from 2022, mandating technologies such as intelligent speed assistance, advanced emergency braking, as well as be enabled to have an alcolock fitted.

A number of roads in Wales are affected by snow.
Most people have very little experience of driving in snow so please consider how it could affect you.
* Reduce your speed
* Avoid harsh acceleration, braking and steering
* Increase your distance from any vehicles in front
As the weather gets colder, increase those gaps! #RoadSafety

After the recent heavy rains and high winds there is likely a lot of localised flooding - try to avoid standing water as you never know how deep it may be, or if it is hiding any hazards. #RoadSafety #RoadSafetyUK #OccupationalRoadRisk #UKWeather
The breathalysers would ensure that only people who are under the legal alcohol limit would be able to physically drive their vehicle. #RoadSafety #RoadSafetyUK #DontDrinkAndDrive #fatal4
