Itβs been a horrific start to
#NationalRoadSafetyWeek with the current lives lost at 119, compared to 88 this time last year.
On Friday 12 May a 76-year-old Collingwood woman was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries after she was struck by a truck in Preston. She later died in hospital.
On Monday 15th May a man has been taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries after he was struck by a car when trying to cross the road in Rowville.
Last night two people died in a fatal collision in Caulfield where two cars collided forcing one to roll.
As winter is rolling around the corner, poor light, slippery roads and fatigue can make driving dangerous - making it especially important you remember to:
π Maintain a safe distance to the vehicle in front.
π Drive to conditions β that may mean reducing your speed.
π Make sure your car is roadworthy, especially your tyres.
