Background

Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users. Many feel unseen and forgotten in public safety campaigns & driver training. We want a national strategy that prioritises motorcycle awareness for all road users, improves driving education & prioritises infrastructure to make roads safer.

Additional details

For many riders, the motorcycle is not just a mode of transport—it’s a lifeline or support. Riders report it is a tool for emotional resilience, yet we feel this connection is rarely acknowledged or supported. We want: A national campaign focused on motorcyclist safety and visibility. Strengthen driving tests to better educate motorists about motorcycles. Recognise mental health benefits. Engage with charities leading this work at community level.
