#NeverEverDrinkandDrive
Excessive speed for the road or the conditions remains a major cause of road deaths and serious injuries in NI, especially on rural roads with higher speed limits.
You'll Always Lose Control... To Speed

Motorcyclists are one of the most vulnerable groups on NI’s roads
Drivers #TakeAnotherLook before making any manoeuvre, especially at junctions
Remember, pillar blind spots in a vehicle can obscure an approaching motorcyclist
@nias999@hsenigov@nifrsofficial@niroadpolicing
When planning your night out, plan your way home
If you're the designated driver you're responsible for those in the vehicle & the consequences of their behaviour
It's ok to tell your friends to behave & not to distract you
Your car, your rules

Temperatures were forecast to fall below freezing this morning and there is a risk of ice on the roads. The salting of roads on the scheduled network considered to be at risk has being undertaken overnight and again this morning. (1/2)
Take extra care driving on wet roads - your tyres will have less grip on the road
Watch out for fallen trees across the road network
Slow down, expect the unexpected
Allow extra time, anticipate debris as you travel

Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins has launched two powerful new road safety campaigns.
The hard-hitting campaigns – called ‘Priority List’ and ‘Control or Speed’ – address two of the main causes of deaths and serious injuries on our roads – speeding and, more generally, driver behaviour.
