The unmarked motorcycle was in Plymouth last night. It was nice to report that motorists on the A38 were behaving however the inner city kept us very busy so will be back very soon with the help of the drone team. 7163

From the SW Commercial Vehicle Unit reminding all drivers big and small not to place screens or sat-navs in their field of vision. Drivers must have a clear view to the front and not just Tweety. 16320

Thinking of all those involved in yesterday’s collision near Minehead. D&C Roads Policing Team provided multiple assets to assist our colleagues in A&S who helped co-ordinate a brilliant response by all emergency services to what was a truly tragic situation.

This is how much using your phone whilst driving influences your road position. The dangers in this instance are clearly amplified when operating a laden HGV. Ticket issued and impending ban for this driver on the A30 near Honiton today. 7163

It is the season when some drivers take a risk by driving under the influence of drink and/or drugs. This driver did just that after driving erratically on the #A30 near Goss Moor this evening. #Arrested #LabResultsPending .#NoExcuse. @DrugWipeUK.@VisionZeroSW.#oplimit. 15630
