Driving Tip of the Month
How to deal with a right turn onto a Dual Carriageway When crossing or turning right onto a Dual carriageway, first assess whether the central reservation is deep enough to protect the full length of your vehicle. If it is, then you should treat each half of the carriageway as a separate road. Wait in the central reservation until there is a safe gap in the traffic on the second half of the road. If the central reservation is too shallow for the length of your vehicle, wait until you can cross both carriageways in one go. Our NEW video shows how to do a right turn onto a Dual Carriageway More (best with a broadband connection)
Brake is empowering local people to take action to improve road safety in their own communities through its Zak the Zebra hotline. By calling Zak the Zebra on 08000 68 77 80 (open 8am-8pm Mon-Fri and 9am-4pm Sat) anyone can report roads in their area that are plagued with dangerous drivers. All callers are sent a Zak e-pack with information and resources to help them run local road safety campaigns. In the UK in 2005, 2,197 children on foot and 537 on bikes were killed or seriously injured under the age of 16. Thats an appalling 53 children a week and seven children each day. Road deaths are a tragic waste of young life. |
