Police urge for extra caution on roads following serious collisions on Saturday

The North Wales Roads Policing Team has pleaded with drivers to try and make Sunday a “no casualty day.”

Officers say they have dealt with multiple incidents on Saturday, including a serious collision involving two motorcycles, a separate collision involving a child, and another where a female sustained serious injuries.

With the weather forecasts predicting more warm and sunny days ahead, there is an expectation of increased traffic on the roads; police are urging all road users to be extra vigilant.

In a heartfelt plea, the police asked, “Any chance we could all try to make tomorrow a no-casualty day? Please stay safe on the roads.”
