These are the most common causes of death and serious injury on our roads.
They are so simple to avoid.

Don't drink, or take drugs before you get behind the wheel of a car.

Put the phone in the glove box and leave it there until you have parked up.

Don't drive to fast for the conditions. Keep to the speed limits and If the conditions are poor, keep to the speed limit and reduce your speed to suit.

Wear your safety belt - it save lives and serious injury.

From the illustration you can easily see that the time gained by going an extra 10mph from 70 to 80 mph is minimal and just not worth the risk.

Cheers and keep safe.

A brilliant result today for Maria at Hastings Dtc in glorious sunshine.

A perfect drive and all ready to venture off to a new world with her new found freedom and independence. With a young (very young🙂) family and the job beckoning in July it's an exciting year to remember.

Cheers Maria and keep safe.

A fantastic result for Robert Dye today in Hastings Dtc
One of the best earned test results of all my pupils over the decades.

Despite having to stop due to the pandemic, difficulties that arose with his licence - through no fault of his and the battle to get it reinstated. Needing to resit the theory test, moving house getting a great job, he stuck resolutely to the task of passing.

Well done mate, you really do deserve the pass certificate today and it has been an absolute pleasure being part of your journey.

All the very best for the future. Cheers and keep safe.

Follow the advice from Roadcraft for better driving. The Roadcraft system of car control is simple, but highly effective and been in use since 1937.
RIGHT PLACE
RIGHT TIME
RIGHT SPEED
RIGHT GEAR.

Also, unlike the instructor in the car in the picture, DON'T be 4 times the drink driving limit - only drive when sober.

Cheers and keep safe.
