Motorists are being urged to “Respect Our Roads” as the countdown to TT starts.
The Department of Infrastructure and the police have launched a new safety campaign targeting both residents and visitors.

In previous years campaigns have focused on the aftermath of an incident – this year’s highlights the number of people who use the roads on a daily basis and whose lives could be changed in the event of an incident.
Chief Constable Gary Roberts responded to claims that serious accidents during the period are an inevitability:
