A grieving mother is calling for stricter #escooter laws in this moving short film after her son died in a crash.

It really is time for the government to step in and change the #law to help prevent more of these tragedies 💔🛴

It’s #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek — at @clmedilaw, we know recovery isn’t just physical. After an injury, emotional and mental healing matter too. Talking helps. Healing is possible, one conversation at a time.

I attended a very interesting and insightful conference on paediatric #SpinalCordInjury today in Leicester.

All speakers had a real passion for improving outcomes for young patients.

It was a pleasure to attend alongside my new colleagues from @clmedilaw.

🚲Cyclists who kill or cause serious #injury to pedestrians could soon face life sentences under new UK #law proposals, updating 160-year-old legislation. The move aims to align #cycling offences with #driving ones.

🛑Thousands of drivers clocked doing more than 100mph.

The Government, local authorities and the police take must take more decisive action to combat the record levels of speeding.

I knew all that time driving around in golf buggies chasing after my wayward shots would come in handy.

Let's hope these contraptions don't cause as many problems as #escooters.

I was interviewed on Times Radio today about the unsuccessful claim made by the ski tourist who broke her back sledging down a red slope after an impromptu drinking session with a chalet host.
It is an unfortunate event but ultimately a correct decision.

The DVSA faces accusations of using bullying tactics and lowering driving test standards to tackle the post-pandemic backlog.

The dangers of "dumbing down" the driving test to boost pass rates are significant.

Road crash victims face a challenging journey toward recovery. Behind every statistic is an injured person and a family in distress.

Thank you @Brakecharity for sharing my blog on supporting road crash victims this #RoadSafetyWeek.
