We take road safety seriously, which is why we've launched Operation Triton, a dedicated initiative aimed at tackling dangerous driving and improving safety on our roads.

Our primary mission is simple yet crucial – to reduce the number of fatalities and serious injuries on our roads. We also aim to disrupt and deter criminals who abuse the road network.

We are working with communities and partners, including local councils, charities and Transport for West Midlands, to create safer roads for everyone.

Our proactive approach involves patrolling key areas, enforcing speed limits, and protecting our communities from the hazards of excessive speed and other road-related issues.

We are conducting regular operations on the roads focusing on offences known as the ‘fatal four’, this includes:

We also target those who have inappropriate child safety measures and window tints that hinder visibility.

In 2022, on our roads and motorways in the West Midlands area, there were 65 people who were killed and 1,021 who were seriously injured. Every life lost is one too many, and we're determined to change that.

Since the summer we have geared up our efforts by conducting even more operations across the region. Your safety matters to us, and we are determined to reduce the number of accidents, injuries, and fatalities on our roads.

We don’t ever want to be knocking on someone’s door to deliver the worst possible news a family could hear so please take that extra time and care when on the roads – and help save lives.
