SUVs like the Defender are three times more likely to kill a child under 10 in the event of a crash, compared to a small car.
This form of advertising needs challenging. #AirPollution #RoadDanger

This is a good read about the idea of "Kids Streets" in #Birmingham & #Coventry. It's one thing to make the journey to school safer, but if we want our children to be able to travel independently and safely to sports clubs, friends' houses & more, we need to think bigger. #SchoolStreets #RoadDanger
