Have you ever considered the possibility that your Road Safety™ campaign is an ill-considered, vapid, regressive, hegemonic bag of guff?

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Where there is an island in the middle of a zebra crossing, wait for people to cross just in case they forget the sad reality that most highway rules exist primarily for the benefit of people in cars, who actually aren’t more important, they’ve simply bought a car.
Ah, forget it.

“…but if that seems like too much effort, at least we’ve written your excuse for you.”

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

@willbramhill Ray Elsmore. Yes. And many others.

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Don’t forget: beautiful sunsets make great excuses to get you off a charge of causing death by careless driving when you kill someone by not slowing down when unable to see properly.

I still prefer the original lyrics of Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On a Prayer”.

Tony is currently between jobs. He drinks a few cans each day that he gets from an off-licence a short drive away from home.

Megan is a junior doctor. She drinks prosecco in a wine bar after work with colleagues as her job is very stressful.

They are both drink drivers.

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Look at this picture. There’s a cyclist in it, but can you see him? No! Of course you can’t! He’s not wearing bright trousers! Imagine how awful you’d feel if you drove straight into him simply because you couldn’t see him? Right! Well, tell everyone what you think about that!

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Yeah, I did. And I dont even have headlights. And he’s way further ahead than the stopping distance for the speed limit in that road. And I keep an eye out for people who are legally lit even if they don’t wear a yellow cest. And even people who aren’t legally lit. But I’m weird.

Whilst it is not mandatory to wear high vis when cycling it is a good idea when its dark. This cyclist had a rear light but is still difficult to spot in dark clothing - did you see him! @SustransSE @BritishCycling @WeAreCyclingUK @GetBritCycling @THINKgovuk

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Move south? 😉

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

An ironically appropriate message for the entire Road Safety™️ industry.

You asked us to make a #nicewaycode poster to show the importance of hi-viz clothing. So we did.

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

It's #ProjectEdward day: the Europe-wide campaign focusing on the number of deaths on the road. We're expecting it to achieve zero ✊️

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

I didn't listen (LBC scores higher than an angry wasp on the list of Things I Don't Want To Put In My Ears) but I hope it went like this:

"It's a load of inherently impotent hegemonic shit, Nick. Ciao."
/walk out of studio

Yeah? Good stuff, then. Crack on.

[RoSPA Road Safety @roadsafety]

We are talking with Nick Ferrari on LBC today at 8:50 discussing their latest Be Safe Be Seen campaign @LBC @TfL @london_cycling

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

@IBIKEDublin If parking in a cycle lane is a Road Safety™ event, maybe you could post all such events to the map?

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Parking in a cycle lane is just grand provided you close it off first, because Road Safety™ awareness. Well done the lads.

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Promoting Road Safety™ by blocking a cycle lane. Well done the lads.

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

Ironically, just some images carelessly smashed together. Is there some sort of campaign against visual messaging casualties that I can join?

SAFE DRIVE : STAY ALIVE GREAT ADVICE FROM INDONESIA #ProjectEDWARD

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

BACK TO SCHOOL

A great time to remind parents to drive in anticipation of children being inevitably carefree, or to make an effort to get the kids to school without even using the ca—no wait hang on a minute I've got this

[Project Pictogram @RoadSafetyPic]

BACK-TO-SCHOOL

A great time to remind your kids how to be safe pedestrians, cyclists, & passengers

Eyes, ears & mind on-the-road. Smart phones & headphones are major DISTRACTIONS to road users of all ages. Teach good habits young

#ProjectPictogram #ProjectEdward #backtoschool

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

One way in which we can all help to reduce the risk of road casualties is to simply drive less: consider using online communication rather than travelling to face-to-face meetings, taking public transport when going on a long journey, or finding a more local tapas restaurant.

[@ROADPOL_EU @roadpol_eu]

Almost time to start this years #ProjectEdward road trip. From Dublin to Madrid 2018. Taking a message in support of road safety from one country to another follow us live from the 11th to 20th September. Raising awareness and saving lives . ⁦@GardaTraffic⁩

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

To play a far greater part in reducing road deaths, just use the phone.

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

We've had a beer (staying off the roads lol!) and we've sketched our next #nicewaycode poster ad. What do you think?

[Niceway Code GB @NicewayCodeGB]

How virtual reality is helping to allow HGV manufacturers and operators do nothing abou—hang on I've got this let me try again

[RoSPA Road Safety @roadsafety]

How virtual reality is helping to make cyclists more aware of HGV danger https://t.co/9bGNAxBsp6 @londoncyclist @sustrans @BritishCycling @Chris_Boardman Be aware stay safe @TfL @CMPG @metpoliceuk
