Warwickshire Road Safety Partnership Bike
BikeSafe
BikeSafe is a professional course run by Warwickshire Police to help riders become safer and more confident on our roads. The aim is to raise awareness of the importance of progressing on to accredited post-test training. The training offers the opportunity for riders to be observed by police graded riders to get individual feedback on their skills and riding behaviour.
Warwickshire Police are regional coordinators of the course which covers rider attitude, systematic methods, collision causation, position, overtaking, observation, hazard perception and much more.
