Priorities
The partnership uses crash figures to help it work out where to concentrate its efforts. The partnership's current priorities are:
- motorcyclists
- young drivers
- people who drive for work
Older car drivers of 60 years and over and adult pedal cyclists are already priorities for Derbyshire County Council and the partnership supports these priorities.
