More people are using country roads as a diversion but extra care is need as you can’t see the dangers that may lie behind a bend, so it’s always best to slow down and give yourself time to react. Stay in control. Brake before the bend, not on it.

@CongletonFS & @MaccFire attend a serious RTC, Involving 3 Cars and had to extricate 1 adult male with serious injuries. With winter setting in please ensure you drive to arrive with vehicle safety checks, plan your route, and allow extra time for weather conditions.

Human error is by far the biggest contributory factor to fatal collisions. If a person drives carelessly, no matter how safe they think their vehicle is, the risk of a serious collision occurring is increased considerably.

We recently took on a charity challenge to raise money for @firefighters999. We had to climb the Bosley Cloud to the equivalent height of Olympus Mons, probably the tallest mountain in the solar system.
Here's how we got on!
