⚽ Tonight's the night... England are playing their first World Cup match!

Which means millions of people will be heading to pubs, bars, friends' houses and fan zones to watch the game.

And while most people wouldn't dream of drink driving...

Big occasions have a habit of changing plans.
One more drink.
Extra time.
A last-minute winner.
A few post-match celebrations.

Before you know it, the journey home looks very different from the one you planned.

The safest limit when driving is always zero.

Whatever the result tonight, make sure everyone gets home safely.

THINK! 0% is our partner-led platform, working with alcohol brands and the hospitality sector, to prompt drivers to THINK! 0% when in drinking environments and help them to set new, safer habits without missing out on good times. Big sporting moments like the World Cup bring people together: bigger....

🏍️ Here's a stat that often surprises people...

Motorcycles account for around 1% of road traffic in the UK, yet motorcyclists make up around 20% of road fatalities.

That's a huge difference.

And it highlights one of the biggest challenges in road safety. Motorcyclists are smaller, less visible, and often harder to judge than other vehicles.

Most drivers have probably had that moment where they've checked, checked again... and still been surprised by a bike appearing closer than expected.

Likewise, many riders will have experienced the feeling of not being seen at all. Sharing the road safely takes awareness from everyone, drivers and riders alike.

What's the best piece of advice you've ever heard for improving motorcycle safety?

📉 Road deaths fell last year. That's the good news. The less encouraging news?

Thousands of people are still being killed or seriously injured on UK roads every year.

Which raises an interesting question...at what point do we stop measuring road safety purely by fatalities?

Because for every life lost, there are many more people whose lives are permanently changed by serious injuries.

Road safety isn't just about preventing deaths, it's about preventing harm.

Do you think serious injuries get enough attention in road safety conversations?

Drop in road fatalities in 2025 welcome but wider casualty figures “remain deeply concerning” 13.04 | 28 May 2026 | Statistics New Government figures estimate there were 1,556 road fatalities in 2025, representing a year-on-year fall of 3%.

🚨 More than 4,000 drivers with 12 or more speeding points are still legally driving on UK roads.

Yep...let that sink in for a second.

And a further 117 drivers have more than 20 speeding points on their licence, while two motorists have reportedly accumulated 43 and 45 points and remain behind the wheel.

Which is why there's now a push for repeat speeding offenders to have technology fitted to their vehicles that physically prevents them from exceeding the speed limit.

And that's where it gets interesting...

Should repeat offenders lose their licence? Or should they keep driving, but with technology that stops them speeding again?

👇 Where do you stand?

🚗 Modern cars are packed with safety features. Right?

Automatic braking.
Lane assist.
Collision warnings.
Airbags everywhere.

So here's the question...
Why doesn't it feel like our roads are getting safer?

While vehicle safety has improved dramatically over the last decade, pedestrian fatalities have increased by around 10% and cyclist fatalities by around 25%.

Have we become better at protecting people inside vehicles than the people outside them?

While the number of fatalities among car occupants is down, new Government stats reveal a rise in vulnerable road user casualties

📱 Here's a question... When was the last time you saw someone using their phone while driving?

Not this month.
Not this week.
Today.

For most people, the answer is probably "on my last journey".

Which is remarkable when you think about it.

We all know it's illegal.
We all know it's dangerous.
We all know the penalties.

Yet new RAC research suggests drivers using handheld phones for texting, social media and internet browsing has reached its highest level in eight years!

At what point does something stop being a bad habit and start becoming normalised?

More people than ever admit to watching or recording videos, livestreaming or even gaming while driving

📹 Dashcams. Helmet cams. Doorbell cameras.

It feels like there's a camera everywhere these days.

Recent reports suggest thousands of driving offences are now being reported by members of the public every year through schemes like Operation Snap.

Which raises an interesting question...

Does knowing you might be filmed make people drive differently?

Or should good driving standards have nothing to do with who's watching?

🛴 E-scooters: unclear rules, very clear enforcement.

On one hand, there’s still ongoing uncertainty about how e-scooters and e-bikes should be regulated in the UK.

On the other hand, police forces are already carrying out large-scale operations, seizing vehicles, making arrests, and targeting antisocial and criminal behaviour linked to their use.

So the question is: Are we still in a “trial and learn” phase?

Or have things already moved into full enforcement mode without the public really catching up?

It feels like this is one of those areas where the rules haven’t quite kept pace with reality on the streets.

What do you think?
👇 Regulate more clearly first
👇 Enforce harder now
👇 A bit of both

Eight people are arrested and 140 vehicles are seized.

There’s no doubt about it 🚶‍♀️ walking is one of the simplest ways to get around.
No fuel. No traffic. No parking stress.

But new UK research highlights something more serious… almost 9 in 10 women say they feel unsafe walking alone after dark.

And that’s not just a “night-time issue”. It has a knock-on effect on everyday behaviour, where people go, when they go out, and whether they choose to walk at all.

It changes routines quietly, over time.

That’s why this isn’t just about walking.

It’s about how people experience everyday spaces, pavements, crossings, junctions, and the journey home.

If people don’t feel safe, they adjust their behaviour, often without even thinking about it.

So what actually makes a street feel safer to walk in?
More lighting? Cameras? Apps? Visibility? Driver behaviour? Other people around? Something else?

And if you’ve got time today, why not join in today for the final day of National Walking Month 👇

🏁 154mph.

That’s the speed a driver was recently caught doing on a UK road.

Which got us thinking…

It’s easy to focus on the extreme cases, but most speeding isn’t that.

So what actually drives it day to day?

We’re curious what people think 👇
