Drive to the Conditions

Young people are not driving to the conditions. Since 2016, there have been over 1,000 fatal and injury crashes where the driver failed to drive to the road and weather conditions. 48% of those drivers were under the age of 25. We want our young road users more experienced, educated, and aware of the conditions they will face from the weather and the roads.

Weather conditions: Wind, rain, ice, snow, sunstrike

Road conditions: Rural, open, motorways, windy roads, sharp corners, potholes, roadworks
