Head Lights On In Daytime

Head Lights On In Daytime is a program specifically designed for the often adverse and unpredictable weather we experience in the Blue Mountains.

"In the short term there is no safety measure with the same degree of effectiveness" (Gerondeau.C 1998)

This road safety strategy is about educating motorist to turning their headlights on when visibility is poor or reduced by heavy rain, snow, fog or mist.

Stay Alert - Short Distance Driver Fatigue

Did you know that 86% of drivers involved in fatigue related crashes (where the trip was under 2 hours) lived in the area where the crash occurred? This means they were undertaking journeys that were part of their daily routines. Driving to work, dropping the children off at school, going to the shops etc.
