About us
Road Safety GB is a national road safety organisation that includes representatives from groups across the UK, such as local government road safety teams. Road Safety GB aims to reduce the number and severity of road collisions (and therefore to reduce loss of life and personal injury) by raising awareness of road safety and safer road user behaviour with the road using public, through the provision of training, advice, information, leadership, research, publicity, informed comment and other services to relevant bodies (national and local) and to its members. Road Safety GB works to develop a range of educational initiatives; many in partnership with other organisations and all widely publicised to encourage the national debate on road safety. Road Safety GB aims to inform public opinion by making available more information on the subject, working with other organisations to achieve shared goals.
