Data shows that drink drivers are more likely to be men, aged 25 to 49, who are travelling alone. Offences are more likely to happen on 30mph roads because offenders are more likely to be travelling short distances close to home, such as returning from a licenced premises. Drink drive collisions are more likely to happen when it’s dark. Do you know someone who drink drives? Are You Mate Enough to have a word before it’s too late? #OpLimit

Hauliers are frustrated that there’s still been no movement on increasing HGV speed limits in #Scotland from 40mph to 50mph. @RHA_MReid, our Policy Director told @_transportnews that Scotland’s businesses are a competitive disadvantage to firms in England and Wales which adopted 50mph in 2015. He said: “In 2020 a report evaluating the changes in England and Wales was published, and so this data has been around and freely available for five years now.” More here: transportnews.co.uk/2025/10/27/hau… #RHAInfrastructure #RHACostsAndRegulation

Road crashes in the UK remain a major challenge. Over 1,600 people lose their lives and 30,000 are seriously injured every year, costing society over £55billion. These tragedies are not inevitable. PACTS has set out key recommendations to help shape the Government’s forthcoming road safety strategy - focused on harm reduction and grounded in internationally recognised Safe System principles. With bold action, we can save lives and reduce serious injuries. Read our recommendations here: pacts.org.uk/wp-content/upl… #RoadSafety #SafeSystem #TransportSafety #RoadInjuryPrevention #PACTS #VisionZero

We have invested more than £3 million into our e-bike hire scheme, helping people make thousands of journeys across Leeds. Now, having @LNER on board will take us that extra mile to improve the service and get more people out and about. 🚲

A true Yorkshire icon was honoured today. Rob Burrow showed us what real courage looks like - both on the pitch, and throughout his battle with motor neurone disease. And now @northernassist's train will carry his legacy across the North every day.

These figures continue to be very saddening and demonstrate the need for more action to have a significant impact in reducing the number of people killed or seriously injured on our roads.

Stats out today show that there were 29,467 killed or seriously injured (KSI) casualties in Road Traffic Collisions in Great Britain, 2024, a decline of 1% compared to 2023. Full report: gov.uk/government/sta… #RoadSafety
