New Hazard Video
Last updated: 07/09/2006 - 09:38
The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) - the government body responsible for carrying out theory and practical driving tests in Great Britain - is launching a second hazard awareness video - this time aimed at motorcyclists.
Following the success of its What If video for car drivers, the new production looks at the dangers that may arise on the roads for motorcyclists.
Suzi Perry, who fronts the World Superbike Championships, presents the road safety video, which has been filmed using special cameras mounted on motorbikes. The film shows different types of hazards, and assists the rider to recognise clues and signs which will help them see not only the obvious, but also the less obvious.
A booklet is also included in the package, and the combined video and workbook are designed to make riders more conscious of the dangers they may encounter on the roads.
Free copies of the video will be distributed to all of the DSA's Approved Training Bodies (ATBs) and motorcycle instructors. Interested members of the public may order the video at a cost of £12.99, plus postage and packaging by telephoning 0870 241 4523, or from DSA Merchandise, Cambertown, Goldthorpe Industrial Estate, Rotherham S63 9BL.
The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) is responsible for conducting driving tests in Great Britain for cars, motorcycles, lorries and buses.
