DriveTech launches Vision Zero Road Safety Awards 2021

DriveTech’s 2021 awards spotlight innovative road casualty reduction and safer roads initiatives among police forces

Announced to coincide with Road Safety Week, the programme follows in the footsteps of the 2019 awards and is again open to all UK police forces and law enforcement authorities.

Eligible organisations are asked to submit their successes and share best practice, from projects to campaigns or other initiatives that have a practical benefit in helping improve road safety.

Award winners and two runners-up will receive a cash prize to spend on a road safety cause or a project within the police force’s area.

Entries will be judged by Charlie Norman, DriveTech managing director, and Des Morrison, director of police business, along with special guests Nick Simmons, CEO of RoadPeace and Ruth Purdie, chief executive of UKROEd.

Des Morrison commented: “We’re really looking forward to seeing the efforts which have been made to encourage road safety and improve behaviour of drivers while behind the wheel. Good luck to everyone who enters!”
