Police will launch a safe driving campaign November 21 reminding drivers of public service and goods vehicles to ensure road safety.

During the first five days of the 10-day campaign Police will distribute publicity leaflets to drivers and the public.

People will be encouraged to report undesirable driving behaviour to Police or the Transport Complaints Unit by calling 2889 9999. They can also report direct to the police transport hotline 2754 7668 for driving misbehaviour related to minibus drivers such as speeding.

Stringent enforcement action will be taken in the following five days against traffic offences.

In the first 10 months of this year there were 11,963 traffic accidents involving casualties, down 6% on the same period last year.

The accidents were mainly due to tailgating, losing control, speeding, careless lane changing, negligence and failing to comply with traffic signals.
