Country road observations

During the summer months, and especially after the recent rain many roadside verges are overgrown, which restricts our ability to make effective observations. 

Make sure you double check before committing to emerge and make a point of checking for motorcyclists who are extremely vulnerable at road junctions.

Wind down windows to improve your ability to assess the situation.

Try to anticipate the types of road users who are likely to be using country roads more frequently in good weather conditions.
