Have a safe TRIP this bank holiday

Adur & Worthing Police

Good Morning Resident,

Have a safe TRIP this bank holiday.

Heading out for the long weekend? Before you do, take a moment to prepare as the weather is looking a little mixed.

Rain dcan affect visibility, stopping distances, and how your vehicle handles. A little preparation now can make all the difference later.

Before you set off:

Plan your route

Check the latest weather and traffic updates

Allow extra time for delays

Remember your TRIP check:

T – Top up your fuel, oil, and screen wash

R – Rest regularly - take a break at least every two hours

I – Inspect your tyres for pressure and tread

P – Prepare for the weather conditions

And when the rain starts falling, keep this in mind:

“If it’s time for your wipers, it’s time to slow down.”

Stay alert, stay prepared, and have a safe journey.
