NRSC 2026: sessions focus on safety on two-wheels

Parents can now access free, evidence‑based resources to support new drivers in passing their test and developing safer driving behaviours.

An established government road safety programme will prevent an estimated 2,700 deaths and serious injuries over 20 years on some of England’s most dangerous A‑roads – delivering £1.25 billion in benefits to society from a £195 million investment, a new report says.

More than 10,000 drivers received penalty points on their licences for driving unroadworthy vehicles last year, new data analysed by the RAC’s mobile servicing and repairs division has found.

The JumpStart campaign has welcomed confirmation that it will contribute to a DfT review into the safety equipment recommended for vehicles, describing it as an important opportunity to improve survival rates from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

The Road Safety Trust is currently recruiting for its next chair of the Board of Trustees.
