Keep your mind on the road
Distractions are one of the most common causes of incidents on the road. Stay focused when you’re on the road.

One drink can put you over the limit, and you can still be over the limit the morning after.

Driver behaviour
Keep to the speed limit
Speeding can have big consequences. These statistics show the difference it makes.
Speeding contributes to 1 in 5 deaths on Scotland’s roads.
Because speeds are higher on rural roads they account for almost three quarters (74%) of road deaths.
Fatal collisions caused by drivers going at 65mph could be halved if the drivers slowed down by just 5mph.
Children and Educators
Our teaching resources equip children with the skills, knowledge and attitudes that will help them stay safe now and in later life.
