THINK! Road Safety

Today, we're launching an important new campaign reminding young drivers of the consequences of drug driving. THINK! Don't put Drugs in the Driving Seat. Read more about the campaign here > bit.ly/4prp5TF

Don’t let “I’ll be fine” put you at risk of hurting yourself or others as you head out this long weekend. The consequences of drink driving aren’t worth it. Stick to 0% if you'll be driving. #DrinkALittleRiskALot

This #WalktoSchoolWeek, we’re proud to support our friends at @LivingStreets and their #MissionMove challenge 🚶‍♀️🚲 Walking, wheeling and cycling to school helps children build confidence, independence and healthy habits for life. Join the mission 👉 livingstreets.org.uk/walk-to-school…

As the weekend approaches, THINK! is reminding young men to not let the pressure to speed get to them. Watch your speed, drive to the conditions, and be the mate that gets there safely. #IsPushingItWorthIt

You might think you’re fine driving on drugs, but drugs mess with your focus and judgment. You’re putting yourself and your friends at risk. THINK! Don’t put drugs in the driving seat.

🌦 🚗 Longer days don’t always mean safer journeys. Before you head out, remember to: 🚗 Top–up - Fuel, oil, screen wash and charge your EV. 🚗 Rest - Take a break every 2 hours. 🚗 Inspect - Check your lights and tyres. 🚗 Prepare - Plan for weather changes. @NationalHways

Fun weekend plans? Here's something to remember as you head out: alcohol can affect you differently each time you drink. Even if you feel fine, you could be over the limit. If you’re driving, stick to 0% and stay 100% safe. THINK! #DrinkALittleRiskALot

Brighter days are here, and that could mean more people out walking, cycling or riding 🚴🚶🏍️ Remember, as a driver, you have a responsibility to look out for those more vulnerable. Stay alert. Help keep everyone safe.

🚸 Little ones back to school this week? Remind them of these key road safety rules: 👀Eyes Up: No distractions, no phones. 🚦Slow Down: Check for traffic, never run across the road. 🚗Cross safely: When crossing, avoid parked cars or big vehicles. Use crossings where available.

The lads from the JOE Football podcast discuss what to do if your mate takes drugs on a night out and then wants to drive home. THINK!'s 'Don't put drugs in the driving seat' campaign warns young men about the risks and consequences of driving while under the influence of drugs.

Drug driving is no joke. 46% of young people know someone who has driven after taking drugs - despite penalties including up to six months in prison and at least a year driving ban. THINK! Don’t put drugs in the driving seat.

Brighter days mean more time on the road. Drugs can stay in your system for days — longer than many young men realise. You could still fail a police drug test. THINK! Don’t put drugs in the driving seat.

Whether driving or riding, rememeber to buckle up! #CLICK is a reminder to young men that seat belts are a must wherever they go.

Driving to watch football games this weekend? Remember that alcohol can affect you differently each time you drink. Even if you feel ok to drive, don’t risk being over the limit. #DrinkALittleRiskALot

Know the zones of an HGV’s limited vision when approaching and overtaking lorries. Make it easy for an HGV driver to see you by moving out of areas of limited vision as soon as it’s safe to do so. #KnowTheHGVZones

We're reminding drivers of the consequences they can face if they choose to drive after taking drugs: how they could lose control of their life, their freedom and their future. THINK! Don’t put drugs in the driving seat.

THINK! has teamed up with Drinkaware and the Considerate Constructors Scheme to remind young construction workers of the risks of drink driving. Local Transport Minister, @LilianGreenwood explains how even a small amount of alcohol before driving could have serious consequences.

Snow, ice and heavy rain can make driving tricky, but a few minutes of preparation can make all the difference. Remember to do your TRIP checks before setting off. ✅ @NationalHways
