WYRE Forest roads have prompted police to arrange an event allowing drivers to see how safe their driving is.

Kidderminster Advanced Motorists - a sub-group of the Institute of Advanced Motorists - has teamed up with Worcestershire County Council's road safety unit to run the safe driver event at West Midland Safari Park, near Bewdley, on Sunday.

Bewdley beat manager, PC Nigel Barter, said: "Drivers will be invited to go out in their cars with qualified observers and drive a set route in the Wyre Forest district.

"Marks will be awarded and it is hoped to give a trophy to the safest driver. There will also be a static display providing useful information."

Drivers interested in taking part can ring PC Barter on 08457 444888, extension 3060. They will be asked to produce their driving licences and insurance documents before being allowed to take part in the event, which runs from 9.30am until 1.30pm.
