Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012BRAKE call for “Lighter Later”
Friday, March 23rd, 2012The road safety charity Brake has launched the campaign “Lighter Later” which would mean the clocks would go forward an hour all year round.
This campaign is gathering more and more support and would mean there would be fewer daylight hours in the morning, when most people are asleep and allow for lighter evenings, which would improve safety in all areas of road use, but particularly to cyclists and pedestrians.
Julie Townsend Brake deputy chief executive said “Brake is urging the government to put the clocks forward by an hour throughout the year, to make the evenings lighter and our community’s safer, happier places. We waste too much precious daylight when most of us are asleep. Changing the clocks would mean it stays lighter later in the day, so we have more daylight when most people are awake. The effect would be safer roads in the afternoons and evenings, when many are walking and cycling home from school or work and need to be seen by drivers to prevent devastating road casualties. The change would also promote healthier lifestyles and stronger communities as it would encourage more people to get out and about on foot and bicycle.”
