Welsh Fire and Rescue Services are reminding everyone to stay cautious and, get to know the Fatal 5.

This September is Fatal 5 awareness month, and the three Welsh Fire and Rescue Services are reminding road users of the Fatal 5, the five main causes of road traffic collisions and injuries in Wales.

Most people abide by the rules of the road but unfortunately a small minority choose to put themselves, their families and innocent road users at risk.

Since January 2024 Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service has attended 465 road traffic collisions (RTC). Our aim is to reduce these figures, prevent accidents and serious injuries on our roads.

Look out for safety messages on our social media throughout the month of September or for more information on how to keep safe on the road visit: On the Road (mawwfire.gov.uk)
