Warwickshire Police and Crime Commissioner Philip Seccombe went to see for himself a safer riding workshop at the British Motor Museum at Gaydon, which equipped bikers with the skills to keep safe on the county’s roads.
Run by ex-police instructors and advanced police riders as well as senior instructors from both RoSPA and the IAM, the workshop covers road observation, hazard perception, anticipation and planning, overtaking and cornering technique and includes both classroom and on-the-road assessment of riders.
The course was part-funded by the Commissioner’s Grants Scheme, allowing the cost per rider to be reduced.
