‘DRIVING SAFELY IN SUMMER.’
___________________
This popular series of free zoom webinars returns at 10am on Saturday 31 May   

1 June is the date the weather services use to mark the start of summer. In rural counties this brings with it seasonal road safety challenges.

• Traffic volumes increase with more vulnerable road users out and about
• This is the busiest season for farmers
• Fast growing hedgerows obscure traffic signs and at dawn and dusk wild animals are more active
• Tourists are visiting with some not being experienced in driving on rural roads
• The festival season is in full swing causing traffic jams in unexpected places.

Combine all this with higher summer temperatures and the results are higher stress levels for drivers and vehicles alike. 

This webinar will help re-fresh driving knowledge on how to keep driving safely for longer in summer 

If your summer driving includes driving a motorhome or towing a caravan this webinar will include a reminder on the checks that need to made with licence renewal at 70. Some entitlements do not automatically carry over.
