TAKE CARE IN THE FESTIVE SEASON

Christmas and New Year is a time when many people are out late at night enjoying themselves.  Drivers need to be particularly alert on the road and to mind their speed.  Sadly, people will be killed and injured on our roads over the festive season.

Remember, a pedestrian struck by a vehicle at 30 mph will have a reasonable chance of survival - struck at 40mph and the driver will almost certainly have a death on their conscience.  Please drive within the limits and take care.
