⚽🍻Warm weather. World Cup. Good times. Make sure you get home safely. ☀️

With World Cup matches, warm sunshine and plenty of people enjoying a drink in gardens, pubs and BBQs this weekend, remember that alcohol and driving never mix.

Hot weather can make the effects of alcohol even more noticeable. You may become dehydrated, feel tired more quickly and your judgement, reactions and coordination can all be affected.

If you're drinking:
🚫 Don't drive.
🚖 Plan your journey home.
🚶 Walk, use public transport or arrange a designated driver.

Drink driving is one of the Fatal 5 causes of serious and fatal collisions on our roads.

Not very many drivers would consider driving under the influence of alcohol, but a single decision to drive after drinking can change lives forever. You could:

• Kill or seriously injure yourself, a friend or a stranger.
• Face arrest, a driving ban, an unlimited fine or imprisonment.
• Lose your job, your independence and future opportunities.
• Live with the consequences of that decision for the rest of your life.

Enjoy the football. Enjoy the sunshine. But if you're drinking, don't drive, even the morning after.

Drive sober. Arrive safely.

Changes to driving test booking happening today. ⚠️

From today (9 June), if you move your driving test, you can only move it to one of the 3 nearest test centres to where it's currently booked.

This is the remaining change we committed to make by the end of Spring 2026:

📅 31 March — test changes limited to 2 per booking

🔒 12 May — only learners can book, change or cancel their own test

📍 9 June — test moves limited to 3 nearest centres

Since 12 May, we've suspended 3605 accounts for breaking the rules and reported apps to app stores for removal. We're not stopping there.

⚠️The weather can change in an instant — and your driving needs to change with it.

🌦️Sudden rain? The Highway Code says you should double your stopping distance and slow down.

☀️Bright sun can be just as dangerous, creating reflections and glare on road surfaces — make sure your sunglasses and sun visor are within reach before you set off.

🚗🚙And if you're sitting in heavy traffic, keep a safe gap to the car in front. It's easy to creep forward without thinking, but that space could be what prevents a bump.

👍A few small adjustments can make a big difference. Stay safe on the roads this summer!
