Be Bright Be Seen!
With the darker nights upon us, West Mercia Police is reminding all road users to take extra care during the autumn and winter months and share the roads responsibly.
Motorists:
• Look carefully for other road users, especially near schools at busy drop-off and pick-up times.
• Ensure your lights are in good working order and your wiper blades work effectively.
• Never use your handheld mobile phone at the wheel, it is a dangerous distraction and could land you with penalty points and a fine.
• Check your eyesight. Legally, drivers are required to be able to read a number plate 20 metres away, in daylight. If you are struggling, book an eyesight test with an optician.
Pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders:
• Think about how visible you are to other road users. Consider wearing high-visibility clothing and reflective material, to ensure you can be seen easily.
• Pedestrians – Always use pedestrian crossings where available.
• Cyclists – Ensure your bike is in good working order. Check your brakes and gears and check that your tyres are ok. If cycling in darkness, make sure your bike has front and rear lights.
