West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service has released a stark message to young drivers for National Road Safety Week.
The service says crews have attended 3,105 crashes in the last five years. The figures revealed 33 children and young adults have died in road traffic collisions (RTCs) in the same period and during that time 651 under-25-year-olds were also injured in crashes across West Yorkshire.
The figures are being released as part of the Road Safety Week awareness campaign, which runs between November 19 and 25 and is led nationally by road safety charity, Brake. To try and help reduce the numbers of casualties WYFRS will be taking part in a series of events to try and spread the message about the importance of staying safe.
