A 6-step guide in the event of a road or traffic accident.

You never know what’s just around the corner, so stay prepared and in the know with our road safety guide

Crashes are thankfully rare, but they’re shockingly quick and scary – leaving you unable to think straight.

Unless you’re already prepared, that is. Here’s what you need to know.

1. Stop

The first thing to do is stop. It’s an offence to leave the scene of a collision. Even if nobody was injured you must swap names and addresses.

It doesn’t matter if you’re at fault or not, and even if there’s no other person there – you’ve hit a parked car, for instance – you must still stop and leave your details.

It’s an offence to refuse to give your details, but if you exchange them on a damage-only accident, there’s no need to notify the police.

2. Make sure everyone is safe

While you should stay near your car long enough to clear things up, this mustn’t be at the expense of safety.

If vehicles are in a dangerous position or blocking the road, make sure everyone’s out of the way and that someone warns approaching traffic.

But use your common sense, of course. You shouldn’t move a badly injured person, or send yourself or anyone else into a dangerous position trying to flag down oncoming cars. Only you can decide what’s safe.

 3. Call the police

Section 170 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 requires that you report the accident to the police if a driver fails to stop, or refuses to exchange details, whether there’s injury or not. You must always notify the police if there’s an injury.

If somebody’s badly hurt or the scene is potentially dangerous, call 999. To report a collision where there’s no emergency, call 101 to avoid tying up the emergency line.

You must make your report within 24 hours – or you risk fine, points on your driving license or even find yourself disqualified!

4. Give the right details

It sounds harsh, but it’s best to avoid saying sorry or accepting blame at the scene. It could be used against you later. It’s better to wait until you know all the facts, and aren’t in an emotional or shocked state.

That’s not to say you should be awkward or confrontational. You must give your name and address to anyone involved, and call an ambulance for anyone who needs it.

5. Get the right details

Ask for names, addresses and phone numbers of those involved, and make sure the driver is the registered keeper. If not, ask who is and get their details too.

Note the make, model and colour of any vehicles, plus the number plates. You should also note the time and date, and take the names and addresses of any witnesses.

6. Take photos

Chances are you or a witness will be able to take pictures with your phone, so take shots of where the cars ended up, the damage and the road conditions. Record the scene from several angles so the details are clear.

If you don’t have a camera, sketch the positions of the cars and note the weather, the road conditions and any injuries. It will help you remember what really happened later.

As reported by Sky!

The three-point turn could be scrapped as part of the biggest shake-up of the driving test in 20 years.

Learner drivers could be asked to use a satellite navigation system as part of a revised practical exam, designed to “better reflect real-life driving”.
Around 1,000 learners across the UK will be asked to take part in a trial of new practical exam measures.
The test has existed in its current form for two decades, with an “independent driving” section where motorists are asked to find their way to a destination added in recent years.
A Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) spokesman said: “We are carrying out initial research to explore how the driving test could better reflect real-life driving.
“Any future changes to the test would be subject to full public consultation.”
The independent driving section of the test could be extended from 10 to 20 minutes of the 40-minute test length.
Candidates taking part in the trial are likely to be asked to follow directions on a sat-nav as an alternative to using road signs.
It will also consider replacing the “reverse around a corner” and “turn in the road” manoeuvres with moves such as reversing out of a parking bay, or pulling up on the left or right before re-joining the flow of traffic.
Driving Instructors Association chief executive Carly Brookfield said: “The association has been heavily involved in the scoping of this project and is enthusiastic about the opportunity it presents to evolve the L-test to a level where it more realistically assesses a candidate’s ability to competently and safely manage road-based risk and driving in real life, on real roads.”

Who can teach you and what vehicle can you learn in?

You are legally allowed to learn in your own, or an acquaintance’s vehicle, so long as you are accompanied by an licensed driver who is over 21 and has a minimum of three years experience.

As with normal driving you must ensure your vehicle is road worthy and that you have the correct insurance.

Although many new drivers will have a friend or family member to help them learn, it is recommended that you use an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) for the bulk of your learning and practice.

At Experience Driving School we have a dual controlled manual and automatic cars which greatly improve your safety on the road whilst learning to drive.

Experience Driving School instructors are also aware of the official syllabus and will structure your learning around what you will need to learn in order for you to pass your test.

Getting Started

Learning to drive

Every qualified driver usually has a story to tell about their driving lessons or their driving test experience. 

While it is often interesting to hear these, students who are learning to drive should focus on the up to date advice available from their professional instructors or those at drivinglessonsnewcastleupontyne.co.uk

Approved Driving Instructors (ADIs) hope that every candidate they teach and put in for a driving test passes first time.  The majority of ADIs would also agree that there is much more to learning to drive than passing the test. At Experience Driving we strongly recommend that new drivers take some form of post-test training, such as a Pass Plus Course. The UK has many post driving test courses that even experienced drivers can benefit from.

Many of the people reading this will only see real snow for a couple of days each year – or less.

This means that, despite the tail-slide that you luckily managed to recover from back in 2008, you are not an expert!

Getting ready for winter is essential for all drivers, especially salespeople and others who depend on driving to earn a living.

Whether you are covering long distances or simply making short journeys, it is worth making sure that you are fully prepared for the problems that can, and often will, arise in winter weather. In the UK, most years seem to have one or two days of ‘sudden’ cold weather.

This weather leaves many drivers stranded and sadly almost always results in one or two deaths from hypothermia.

The authorities could possibly do more but the starting point for winter safety is looking after yourself (and those around you!).

Whilst road deaths that are directly attributable to bad weather may be relatively rare, winter snow, ice, rain and fog can cause a lot of inconvenience and cost you dearly in both time and money.

Incorrect tyre pressures are a major fuel waster…

Weekly vehicle checks

Once a week you should check the following items:

Engine oil level
Engine coolant level
Brake, clutch and steering fluid levels
Screen-wash level
Battery electrolyte level*
Fan belt tension
Wiper blade condition
*Most batteries are now ‘sealed for life’ and do not require checking.

If you are unsure about how to carry out these checks you should consult your vehicle handbook or local garage.

Tyres

The small footprint of each tyre is all that is holding you on the road. Damaged or wrongly inflated tyres will simply let go in an emergency…

You should make a detailed inspection of your tyres once a week to make sure that you stay legal (fines of up to £2,500 per wheel), stay roadworthy (tyres are a major MOT fail item – source Kwik Fit survey) and stay safe.

Incorrect tyre pressures are a major fuel waster!

Keeping your tyre pressures within the manufacturers recommended range will help save fuel, maximise braking efficiency and affect handling. Check tyres when they are cold.

Tyres must be the correct type for the vehicle (speed rating, etc.) and free from cuts and bulges. The minimum tread depth for tyres is 1.6 millimetres across the central three-quarters of the tyre and around the whole circumference. your tyres have rectangular wear indicators within the tyre (running across the tread); when the indicators are level with the tread it’s time to replace the tyre.

Front tyres will often wear quicker than rear tyres but tyres on the same axle should wear evenly; if opposite tyres wear unevenly, or a single tyre wears on one edge, you have problems…

If you are unsure about your tyres, consult a tyre specialist.

Every day you should check and clean the following items:

Windows
Mirrors
Lights
Reflectors
Indicators
Number plates
You should also check the correct operation of the:

Headlights
Parking lights
Brake-lights
Indicators
Horn
Windscreen washers
Windscreen wipers
It is illegal to drive the car with any of the items listed above inoperative.

Tyres: Make a quick visual check of the tyres. Walk around the car and look for any obvious tyre damage or pressure loss. If in doubt, check your tyres with a pressure gauge. And despite popular opinion, you can’t check tyre pressures by giving the tyres a good kick!

Brake tests

Each time you drive, perform a static and running brake test.

For the static brake test simply press the brake pedal before moving off to check for pedal pressure.

A running brake test can be done at 5 or 10 miles per hour to check that the brakes are operating correctly (note that this is not an emergency stop!).
