 ‘DRIVING SAFELY IN SPRING. BIKER AWARE.’

April marks the start of the motorcycle riding season with many more bikers out on Gloucestershire’s rural roads.

Motorcyclists are one of the most vulnerable road user groups in our county. From 2019 to 2023 Highways report they are the cohort with the second highest number of fatalities only after car drivers. In this period 25 and 16% of all fatalities were motorcyclists.

This webinar will provide preventative awareness advice on how to drive more safely in spring, with a special feature of on how to be more aware of the vulnerabilities of motorcyclists. Following up on our previous webinar on post-crash response, we also include advice on what action to take at the scene of a crash involving a motorcyclist.

We are delighted to welcome back as our guest presenter ‘Rossy’ Simon Ross MBE.  He is a retired police officer who spent most of his career on traffic duties. He is now a RoSPA and IAM Examiner and delivers BikeSafe and Biker Down! courses in Gloucestershire.
