Bikers, even familiar roads can change unexpectedly — a tightening bend, loose surface, another road user failing to spot you or a tractor emerging from a farm. Reading the road ahead, anticipating hazards, riding defensively and leaving yourself time and space to react can help you stay in control when it matters most.
Drivers, be biker aware – look again for a motorcyclist, a glance is not enough.

Bikers, next time you head out on your bike, think about everyone you love.
Remember, it’s not just you who crashes.
Expect the unexpected.
Drivers – look again for a motorcyclist, a glance is not enough.
#RoadwiseUp
If you ride a motorcycle - reading the road ahead, anticipating hazards, riding defensively and leaving yourself time and space to react can help you stay in control when it matters most. Don’t assume you’ve been seen; your safety is your responsibility too. Always be alert to hazards and be ready to take action. Drivers, a glance is not enough, always look again for a motorcyclist before making any manoeuvre.
#BikeSafely
Two-thirds of people killed in road traffic collisions here in Northern Ireland, occur on rural roads.
All road users need to be aware of the particular vulnerabilities we all face when we travel on country roads.
#YourRiskyDrivingCatchesUpWithYou
Wearing your seatbelt is probably second nature to you. But if you forget to wear your seatbelt, even ONCE, not only do you risk killing yourself but you could kill or seriously injure family or friends travelling with you.

We all share the road.

Motorcyclists are one of the most vulnerable groups on Northern Ireland’s roads.
Drivers #TakeAnotherLook before making any manoeuvre, especially at junctions.
Remember, pillar blind spots in a vehicle can obscure an approaching motorcyclist.
Celebrating St Patrick's Day?
If you’re planning to have a drink, then plan to leave the car at home.
Don’t let your bank holiday end in tragedy.
Make arrangements to get home safely:
-Choose a designated driver
-Order a legal taxi
-Use public transport
