Brake’s Road Safety Week

19 November 2023 Campaign

The theme of this year’s Brake Road Safety Week, the UK’s biggest annual road safety campaign, will be ‘Let’s talk about speed’.

The theme was set following discussions with representatives from community groups, the police, Government, businesses, educators and other charities.

This year’s campaign takes place between 19 and 25 November 2023 and will bring communities and professionals together to talk about speed. Five people die on roads every day, so why do we still think it’s OK to speed?

The 2023 campaign will start the conversation about why speeding is thought of as acceptable in some situations, what happens when we speed and why reducing speed saves lives.
