The hard shoulder - dangerous, unforgiving & it doesn’t discriminate.
Please please DO NOT sit & wait in your car on a motorway hard shoulder.
You wouldn’t survive impacts such as this!
Pls RT.

- When I shoot weddings, I like to have fun, blend in & help the happy couple to relax! This was the first time I’d tried it & they accepted the challenge! Omg it was so much fun and I love the end shot! #WeddingPhotographer #Weddingphotography #photography #WorcestershireHour

- In the early hours of yesterday morning, my beautiful nan fell asleep for the final time with me by her side. I am broken. I’ll be off all social media until a time I can come to terms with the loss of such a rock in my life. Take care . Be kind. Give your loved ones hugs.
- I’m just going to leave this here…… 🤦🏼😡🤦🏼😡🤦🏼😡🤦🏼😡🤦🏼😡🤦🏼😡🤦🏼 #RoadSafety #LaneHogging #KeepLeftJnlessOverTaking
- Today’s tip: When travelling on a motorway, you ARE allowed to use lane 1. You should use lane 1 unless over taking a slower vehicle. When you’ve got past said vehicle, you should move BACK into lane 1. That is all! #RoadSafety #Motorway #JustSaying
- Oh this makes me chuckle so so much. I love it! Never judge a book by its cover 😂

- This is an X-ray of someone who was involved in an RTC - with their feet on the dash. Just don’t. Ever. Airbags deploy through a dash panel at 200 MPH. Imagine your knees into your face at 200 MPH following an RTC - the end. #RoadSafety
- I’ve been on this job since 1430 I’m still on a closure - it’s been a hectic long shift. So imagine my suprise when 3 men in a van pull up next to my closure, tell me they past me earlier & I look fed up and they got me this….. Faith in humanity restored 😂 Thank you chaps!
- Yesterday I closed a motorway. It was for a serious RTC. The carriageway was physically blocked - nothing could get past. The amount of hand gestures, rude comments & shouting directed to me was shocking. If only people cared about others so much as themselves. #RoadSafety
- Driving at its best - NOT. Lane hogging is a huge issue and frustrating. This happens on motorways all over the UK! I’d love to know why people do it! #RoadSafety
- Yesterday, I saw many passengers with their feet on the dash. If only they realised the danger they were in. Airbags deploy from dashboards at approx 200 mph. Imagine your knees into your face at the speed. The end. Just don’t do it. EVER. #RoadSafety
- Straight out to an RTC - frustrated to see people taking photos as they drove past. Today’s tip: DO NOT take photos of an accident scene. DO NOT take photos of an accident scene. DO NOT take photos of an accident scene. DO NOT take photos of an accident scene. #RoadSafety
