People continue to be killed on our roads because people continue to take risks like these. So, before you go near a road, or get into a vehicle #RoadwiseUp @deptinfra @NIRoadPolicing @NIFRSOFFICIAL @NIAS999 @BelHarPolice @PCSP_S @roadsafeni @Newdriverni @Hsenigov @daera_ni

As the leaves start to fall and the roads become more treacherous, remember October is #TyreSafetyMonth . Drivers and riders are encouraged to adopt a habit of performing the three key tyre checks. ACT: Air Pressure, Condition & Tread >>> @NIRoadPolicing

Are you a good passenger? Passengers are often unaware that they are putting their driver at risk by their own behaviour. Never distract the driver or cause situations in the car that might affect the driver's ability to concentrate. #FriendsDontDistractFriendsWhenTheyreDriving

Just passed your test & keen to give your mates a lift? As the driver you are responsible for those in the vehicle & the consequences of their behaviour. It's okay to tell your friends to behave & not to distract you. Your car your rules>> @NIRoadPolicing

With the recent heavy rain, be aware of flooding and surface water. If your vehicle loses grip, or “aquaplanes”, take your foot off the accelerator to slow down. Do not brake or steer suddenly because you have less control of the steering & brakes. @NIRoadPolicing @belharpolice

It's a busy time of year for farmers. Be prepared for slow moving farm vehicles on rural roads. Reduce your speed on approaches to bends which can be sharper than they appear. @Hsenigov @daera_ni @UFUHQ @DiscoverCAFRE @RuralCommNet @NIRoadPolicing @RuralNetworkNI @deptinfra
