The Cheap Insurance mistake young drivers keep making - Sgt Owen Explains!

Trying to lower insurance costs by putting someone else down as the main driver might sound harmless… but if you’re actually the main user of the car, it’s called fronting.

We never expected such a big response to the Van Speed Limits video and the demand for the stickers across platforms took us by surprise, so here’s a quick update from Owen in response to the hundreds of messages!

100,000 of you… mad.

We started this to make road safety actually make sense, never thinking it would grow like this.

The fact that this many people are watching, sharing, and actually taking something from it means a lot.

Just a quick reminder… the rules we talk about have always been there. We’re just here to make them easier to understand. Most of you get that. A few still don’t… and that’s exactly why we keep going.

Big thank you aswell to everyone that’s been involved along the way - we couldn’t have done it without you! 🫡

From me, Owen, and the team… thank you.

We appreciate every single one of you. More to come 🙌

Why L Plates Actually Protect Learner Drivers (Most People Don’t Realise This)

L plates aren’t just there for show… they completely change how other drivers treat you on the road.
When people see a learner, they expect mistakes. That split second of understanding makes drivers hang back, give more space, and drive with extra caution.
Owen breaks down why this matters… and why that same “protection” doesn’t really exist for motorbike riders.
If you’re learning to drive, or even riding a bike, this is something you need to understand.

Tyres aren’t cheap… so why are so many drivers wearing them out early?

Get the pressure wrong and you’re literally burning money.
Too high = worn in the middle
Too low = worn on the edges

You also lose grip and waste fuel.

Check your tyre pressures weekly.
You’ll usually find the correct pressures inside the door shut or fuel cap.

Simple habit. Saves tyres. Saves fuel. Safer driving.

If You Drive a Work Van… This Reflects on Your Company

When you’re behind the wheel of a work vehicle, you’re not just driving for yourself… you’re representing the business.

Police regularly see sign written vans speeding and committing offences on the road.

To other drivers, that van is a moving advert.
And the way it’s driven says everything about the company behind it.

There are also different speed limits for vans… something many drivers either forget or ignore.

If you drive for work, it’s worth thinking about how it looks from the outside.

This E-Scooter Just Got Seized… Here’s Why

Owen pulls over a rider and seizes their e-scooter on the spot.

Here’s what most people don’t realise… under the Road Traffic Act 1988, e-scooters are classed as mechanically propelled vehicles (MPVs). That basically means anything with a motor that can move itself, including electric scooters.

Because of that, they need to meet the same legal requirements as other motor vehicles… insurance, correct use, and being used in the right place.

Privately owned e-scooters don’t meet those rules, so using them on roads, pavements, or public spaces can get you points, a fine, and your scooter seized.

Rental ones are different, but only in approved areas and if you follow the rules.

Be honest… did you actually know that?
