The missing piece for safer streets

The UK government has just published the first GB-wide Road Safety Strategy in ten years, with an aim to reduce deaths and injuries on the roads by 65% by 2035.

This is a huge step forward, which includes lots of measures that you've helped campaign for over many years.

But there's one thing that’s missing. There’s no plan for Highway Code promotion – even though the majority of people still aren’t aware of the new rules from 2022. Important updates like minimum distances for passing cyclists and who has right of way at junctions aren't being followed, because people don't know about them.

This month marks four years since the changes. It's time to fix that.

By entering your details below, you can send a quick message to your MP and ask them to press the government to finally communicate the new rules properly to the public.
