Police specialising in patrolling Sussex's roads have launched a new information service, given through the Sussex Police website.
Officers said the updates are part of Sussex Police’s work to tackle road safety problems affecting communities, and help to reduce casualties on the county’s roads making them safer for all road users.
A glance at the new website, which police intend to update every four weeks, brings an advice section, a list of local actions, and information on engaging with roads policing officers.
Chief Superintendent Jane Derrick, of Operations Command, said:
“Last year 39 people lost their lives in Sussex due to a collision.
"That’s 39 too many and the heart breaking impact is far reaching for family and friends.
“The four weekly update provides communities with a snapshot of the collective activity that we’ve undertaken across Sussex.
"This includes vehicles stopped for speeding, people driving without insurance, and penalty notices for those not wearing seat belts.
“I know you care about where you live and you may want to know more detail about what we’ve accomplished nearer to you.
"For that, I would encourage you to sign up for free to the force’s messaging provider In the Know here.
"Also, you can follow your local district Facebook and/Twitter accounts."
Police have posted their first update here.
