Police to offer winter driving advice to Cairngorm motorists
As winter sets in, a Facebook chat is being organised by police to give motorists the best advice on how deal with it.
Police Scotland Highland and Islands Division are hosting the event tomorrow (Thursday) along with Highland Council and Northern Safety Camera Partnership.
Divisional Head of Roads Policing Inspector Neil Lumsden, Dougie Bennion from Northern Safety Camera Partnership and Road Safety representatives will answer questions and impart safety tips.
Inspector Neil Lumsden said: "We have previously hosted a series of successful chat events on our divisional Facebook page.
"This has been great to be able to engage with thousands of people within the communities across our dispersed region.
"I would encourage the public, especially those in our area, to use this opportunity to ask any questions they have about vehicle preparation for winter, driving in winter conditions or any other queries relating to the subject.
"Even if they don’t want to ask any specific questions, they may get some useful tips from just viewing the conversation thread."
Dougie Bennion, Northern Safety Camera Partnership said: ""I will be on hand during the event to answer any questions anyone has in relation to speed limits, restrictions and in particular anything that is directly linked to appropriate drivingin the winter months. I hope we will all be able to provide information to help keep all road users safe on our roads over the coming winter season."
The chat is being virtually held on the Police Scotland Highland and Islands Facebook page (Police Scotland Highland and Islands Divisonal Facebook page) between 6pm and 7.30pm.
