The 6th United Nations Global Road Safety Week takes place from 17-23 May 2021 with the theme #StreetsforLife, #Love30.
Held every two years, UN Global Road Safety Week provides an opportunity to bring together individuals, governments, NGOs, and other organisations from around the world to increase awareness of road safety and stimulate change to reduce the number of road deaths.
The 6th Week is focusing on speed management as a key aspect of ensuring a safe transport system. The Week promotes 30 km/h (20 mph) speed limits as the norm for cities worldwide in places where people mix with traffic.
In support of UN Global Road Safety Week, eDriving is partnering with Global Road Safety Partnership to host a webinar, “Speeding and High-Risk Behaviors: Steering Drivers to Safer Actions”. Visit eDriving’s new Speeding Resource Center to register for the free webinar.

Dear Road Safety Professional,
Ordinarily, we at FirstCar would be busy making last minute preparations for our annual pilgrimage to the Royal Automobile Club, Pall Mall to welcome many of you along to our Young Driver Focus conference. However, with the last 12-months being like no other sadly we’ve had to skip both this and last year’s Young Driver Focus event, now reschedules for 25th May 2022.
With so much great work going on in the important young driver road safety sector, we at FirstCar didn’t want to wait until next year to share this knowledge. That’s why with the help of our very kind supporters; GEM Motoring Assist, the RAC Foundation and Westcotec; we have produced the Young Driver Focus 2021 report, which is free for you all to read.
We’ve connected with over a dozen experts across both the public and private sector, all of whom work tirelessly and feel passionately about helping to reduce casualties within the young driver sector. They happily share their learnings, knowledge, and insight. In our ‘Road Safety Showcase’ we hear from various local authorities throughout the UK on how they approach the subject of tackling young driver road safety. 
We’d appreciate any feedback you may have by emailing me – james@firstcar.co.uk. We hope to see as many of you in person at Young Driver Focus 2022, and for those who have yet to book you can do so by clicking here.

​An interesting and engaging webinar. I found it fascinating the difference between the USA and ourselves.
Maybe there is something to learn from listening how others work.
Whether that’s what to do or what not to do or what you could change.
I hope you enjoy this.
