Every year 3,000 people are injured on the roads in West Sussex with 17 to 25-year-olds the most vulnerable group.

West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service is working with the Sussex Road Safety Partnership to reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries caused by accidents on the road this Christmas.

"The message is have a merry Christmas just don't drink and drive," said Shoreham firefighter, Dave King.
