Food for thought

Autumn brings more than falling leaves, it brings wetter roads too. 🍂🌧️

Wet weather reduces visibility, increases stopping distances and can catch even experienced drivers out, so it's worth taking a moment to make sure you're prepared.

Before you set off, check your windscreen wipers are working properly and make sure your tyres have adequate tread.

When you're on the road, remember that stopping distances are at least double those needed on dry roads, so keep well back from the vehicle in front.

I’d love to see this here in the UK 🇬🇧

Imagine driving down a dark road and seeing the lane markings glowing right in front of you. 🌙🛣️

In Australia, companies including Tarmac Linemarking and OmniGrip helped trial photoluminescent road markings in Victoria. The special markings absorb light during the day and then glow after dark, making road lines easier for drivers to see at night.

The idea was especially promising for poorly lit rural roads, where improved visibility could potentially help drivers navigate curves and lanes more safely.

However, the project remained a trial rather than becoming standard across Australian highways. After evaluating the technology, authorities decided not to proceed with a broader rollout because there wasn’t enough evidence of significant safety benefits.

Still, the experiment offered a fascinating look at how innovative technology could shape the roads of the future. 🚗✨

⚽Many of us are keen to watch the England team on their quest to 'bring it home,' but the Mexico match is a late one. Please ensure you're well rested before you drive on Monday.

Kane wouldn't perform tired, neither should you.

Come on England! But also, don't drive tired!
