Driving under the influence of alcohol will affect your concentration and your reaction times will be slower. Your journey becomes risky, not only for yourself but other road users. Do the right thing, don’t mix drinking alcohol with driving. #ProjectEDWARD #StriveToArrive

[Stevenage Red Watch @StevenageReds]

Please be careful not to continue to drive if you’re feeling tired or fatigued. Your body is telling you to take a break and please do so if you’re:
Finding it hard to concentrate, yawning or your eyelids are feeling heavy. #ProjectEDWARD #StriveToArrive

[Stevenage Red Watch @StevenageReds]

The risk of a collision increases significantly if you are driving on worn tyres. Check your tyres regularly for minimum 1.6mm tread depth, any bulges or cuts and correct tyre pressures, this will help extend tyre life and you’ll travel much safer. #ProjectEDWARD #StriveToArrive

[Stevenage Red Watch @StevenageReds]

Driving takes a lot of concentration, you can’t afford to become distracted. Turn your phone off and put it away out of sight. Collisions can happen in a split second, best not take the risk and contribute to one by using your phone whilst driving. #ProjectEDWARD #StriveToArrive

[Herts Fire Control @HertsFRSControl]

Good Morning from Green watch we are here till 20:00 tonight 💚🚒🧑‍🚒

[Stevenage Red Watch @StevenageReds]

Seatbelts can dramatically reduce the risk of serious injury or death if your vehicle is involved in a collision. It takes just a couple of seconds to fasten, so there is really no excuse not to, this includes any passengers. Seatbelts save lives. #ProjectEDWARD #StriveToArrive

[Herts Fire Control @HertsFRSControl]

At 04:04 @StevenageGreen were mobilised to aid @EastEnglandAmb with the extrication of a fallen casualty along Hydean Way.
