It's #RoadSafetyWeek organised by @Brakecharity
Every year, more than 1,700 die on UK roads. Another 30,000 have serious, life-changing injuries.
This year road victims are at the heart this week. Together we can increase awareness of the devastating toll of road crashes.

Road trauma is preventable.
Every 33 seconds someone is killed or seriously injured on the roads of our Region.
Let’s make our roads safer for all who use them.
