Campaign Materials
Please find below details about some of our campaign and road safety materials that have been used to help raise awareness of road safety issues.
In November 2020 and 2021 partners did a joint campaign on the run up to Christmas. The main aim of the campaign was to educate residents that it’s currently against the law to ride an e-scooter in any public place.
- Privately owned e-scooters cannot be used in any public space including roads, pavements and parks.
- This is because they are classed as Personal Light Electric Vehicles so are treated as motor vehicles and need an MOT, Tax, Licensing and Insurance.
- Warwickshire Police have the powers to seize e-scooters and prosecute riders. Officers used Section 59 of the Police Reform Act to issue a warning to riders of e-scooters and educate them as to the legal requirements.
Warwickshire is currently not part of any trials so e-scooters cannot be hired at this time.
Social media graphics, leaflets and posters were made to get the message out. Safer Neighbourhood teams also got involved by speaking to schools, local shops and conducted small operations to educate riders.
Warwickshire Road Safety Partnership has distributed Slow 
Down bin stickers via Warwickshire’s 56 Community Speed Watch groups as a reminder to drivers who will see the bins on driveways in residential areas. If residents would like a bin sticker, please contact your local police team. This can be found by putting your postcode into the
‘Find your area’ search box on the Warwickshire Police website homepage.
Warwickshire Road Safety Partnership is supplying partners including local Safer Neighbourhood Teams with high vis items to offer to pedestrians and other road users.
Warwickshire Road Safety Partnership have developed a pledge stickers to drive safely and within the speed limit.
Warwickshire Road Safety Partnership has distributed over 100 ‘THINK BIKE’ and ‘RIDE SAFELY’ signs across Warwickshire to encourage bikers and drivers to please #ShareTheSpace and look out for each other on the county’s roads. The routes for the signage were chosen taking into consideration both casualty statistics and the number of motorcyclists using the routes.
