Devon and Cornwall Police are reminding motorists to ‘think safety’ before setting out on the roads during the winter months.

A successful roads policing enforcement campaign, known as Operation Vortex, will be launched across Devon and Cornwall alongside the advice, to ensure motorists use the roads safely and target motorists who don’t abide by road traffic laws.

Many routes in and around the Force area will be the subject of attention by officers, in the last two weeks in January, to address complacent or arrogant driver behaviour which can lead to serious consequences.

A number of marked and unmarked police patrol vehicles will be on the roads, many equipped with recording technology to deal with offences.
