Welcome to Dorset Road Safe
 

Dorset Road Safe is a partnership of local councils, emergency services and other organisations working together to reduce the number of people killed and seriously injured on Dorset’s roads.

Throughout 2010, the partnership is delivering the ‘no excuse’ project, which aims to cut the number of deaths and serious injuries on our roads by cracking down on the types of bad and careless driving and riding that cause crashes. 

These include inappropriate speed, drink and drug driving, not wearing a seatbelt and distractions like using a mobile phone while driving.

'No excuse' is using a combination of additional enforcement on the roads with awareness-raising, publicity and education activities in a big effort to drive casualties down.

See our media page to see the 'no excuse' campaign video, listen to the radio adverts online and download campaign posters.

All of the partners in Dorset Road Safe are working year-round to deliver a range of campaigns and education programmes to improve road safety awareness.
