'Summerhill Safety Performance 2026'
Thank you.
A very positive movement in our Collision and Passenger Accident figures year to date compared with the same period last year.
Collision
2025: 92
2026: 69
Reduction of 23 incidents –
25% improvement
Passenger Accidents
2025: 58
2026: 31
Reduction of 27 incidents – 47% improvement
These results are a credit to everyone across the operation and demonstrate the impact that safe, professional driving practices can have.
While we should recognise the improvement, we must continue to focus on the basics every time we get behind the wheel:
Maintain a safe following distance
Stay alert and anticipate hazards
Approach junctions, stops and pedestrian crossings with care
Keep distractions to a minimum
Adjust driving to weather, traffic and road conditions
Take your time, there is never a need to rush
Consider the safety and comfort of passengers at all times
Every safe journey matters. Our aim must be to build on this progress and continue driving down preventable incidents.
Well done Summerhill Drivers for the part you are playing let's keep the focus on safe driving and getting everyone home safely.
