Helping Motorists see the road ahead

One in 200 people die on the road, on average losing 40 years from their life expectancy, and these shocking figures look set to increase. Busy lives, stress, deadlines, mobile 'phones and the sheer volume of traffic on today's roads are just some of the issues that makes driving more hazardous than ever.Just one momentary lapse in concentration is all it takes to inadvertently exceed the maximum speed limit and risk life, licence and livelihood.

However, Cyclops' Driver Safety System can help, providing accurate warnings of accident hotspots and safety cameras ahead, with simple audio/visual alerts, thereby focusing you on any forthcoming hazards.

100% legal, The Thames Valley Safer Roads Partnership - an affiliate of the Thames Valley Police - describes Cyclops as "a positive driving aid to promote sensible and responsible driving..."

Using the latest Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) technology, and designed to improve driver safety, the system helps:

Save lives - safety cameras have been proven to reduce deaths at accident hotspots. Motorists will receive up to 800m advance warning of such hazards, giving plenty of time to safely adjust speed and ensure increased concentration

Protect your licence - over 1.1m speeding fines were issued in 2002, 90% of which were from fixed safety cameras. Our service provides clear alerts, showing the prevailing speed limit for all fixed safety cameras in the UK

Every day 10 people die on the road in the UK, with a further 100 suffering serious injuries; up to 95% of crashes are caused by driver error and more than 70% of those who die on the roads are in vehicles or on motorbikes.

This system will help keep drivers focused on their driving as well as giving them ample warning of accident hotspots, giving safer roads and even saving lives.

The Driver Safety System has far more benefits that the traditional Radar/Laser detector and other GPS systems and is easy to install, offering excellent performance combined with maximum value (it is one of the lowest priced systems available).
