Operation Apex: Safer Roads for Motorcyclists

Operation Apex: Safer Roads for Motorcyclists

Published 4 days, 14 hours ago
Description

This summer, police across the UK are launching Operation Apex to save motorcyclists’ lives—because riders, though just 1-2% of road users, are hit in nearly 25% of fatal crashes. In Avon and Somerset alone, 29% of serious collisions involved bikes, with 46 deaths since 2022. Drivers often don’t see riders—especially at junctions or when distracted—making awareness vital. Officers are patrolling high-risk zones, educating riders through programs like Raise Your Ride, and reminding drivers to look twice, give space, and check blind spots. It’s a shared responsibility: stay alert, stay safe, and save lives.
