Saturday 25 October 10:00am Community Webinar

‘DRIVING SAFELY IN WINTER.

TIME FOR CHANGE.’ 

With the clocks going back on 26 October and temperatures dropping drivers need to prepare for the challenges of winter driving. 

AA analysis found 11% increase in collisions in the two-week period after the clocks go back. RAC Foundation found around 75% of extra collisions occur in the afternoon, when it is darker due to the earlier evening.   

This webinar provides advice on how to sharpen driving skills, car preparation and plan journeys to reflect winter driving conditions. 

We will also give advice for drivers’ considering retiring from driving. 

Our guest presenter is PC Chris Horwood-Jones from Gloucestershire Constabulary’s’ Road Traffic Unit who will be discussing the legal implications in relation to fitness to drive and use of prescription drugs and the importance of regular eyesight tests.
