Did you know that breaking down on the hard shoulder results in 250 people being killed or seriously injured every year? Top three tips to stay safe:

✅Avoid breaking down – by regularly servicing and checking your vehicle (including wipers, tyres, and fluid levels).
Report faults immediately and understand your vehicle's warning lights.
🔺Be prepared - carry a charged mobile phone, an emergency kit with warm and high visibility clothing, a torch, water, and a reflective triangle.
🦺Follow general breakdown procedures: If possible, avoid stopping in dangerous places, switch on your hazard lights, and try to pull off the road completely. If you must stop, display your emergency triangle at least 45 metres
behind your vehicle (not on a motorway) and NEVER attempt a repair yourself.
