Road safety
We co-ordinate programmes of road safety training, education and publicity campaigns, to reduce road traffic casualties.
These aim to raise awareness of different road safety issues and are closely linked to the government's Think! (opens in a new window) campaign.
Road traffic collisions and casualties
We are working harder than ever to reduce casualties on our roads.
Travelling by car
We aim to encourage drivers and passengers to travel safely by car, with a particular focus on child safety seat checks, young drivers and winter driving.
Travelling by bicycle
We recognise the health and environmental benefits of travelling by two wheels and help schools provide cycle training for young cyclists.
Travelling by motorcycle
Derbyshire roads attract many motorcyclists.
Unfortunately the county also suffers from a high number of motorcycle accidents.
Our publicity and training campaigns aim to reduce the number of motorcyclists killed or injured on our roads.
Working with children and schools
We work with schools to provide resources that compliment the national curriculum and promote road safety. We also encourage sustainable travel through school travel plans and our Travel Smart campaign.

Annual casualty report
The annual casualty report is the basis for deciding our priorities for road safety activities, campaigns and publicity.
These are a fundamental part of the continued effort to reduce the number of casualties on Derbyshire's roads.
