Op Snap - Dash Cam Submissions
West Yorkshire Police has developed a form that can be used by the public to submit dash cam footage of dangerous driving.
Child car seat checking events
Parents and guardians are being urged to take action and protect their children by attending free car seat safety check events happening in the coming months across West Yorkshire.
Having your child seat checked takes minutes and presents a unique opportunity for parents and carers to meet with experts and make sure their children are safe when travelling.
Trained staff will assess the installation and overall safety of the seats as well as offer guidance and adjustments where needed, in a supportive and family-friendly environment.
No appointment is necessary. Anyone wanting to benefit just needs to attend one of the events which are taking place across the county.
The events have been organised by the West Yorkshire Vision Zero Partnership and will be run by Good Egg Safety CIC.

Out of 763 seats inspected across 25 events last summer, only 280 were deemed safe.
Read the full results from events in 2024.
