Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she plans to instruct National Highways and Nottinghamshire County Council to take a preventative stance on dangerous driving.

The Government recognises the importance of preventing dangerous driving and ensuring the safety of all road users. Enforcement of driving offences is a matter for the police; however, National Highways works closely with police forces across the Midlands to maintain safety on the Strategic Road Network. It engages regularly with local authorities and police to deliver targeted safety improvements. It also takes a proactive stance on prevention by promoting safe driving through its road safety website, national campaigns such as “Go Left” and “T.R.I.P.” and electronic message signs.
