    Devon and Cornwall Police Sergeant Owen Messenger is working with the George's Car Media (GCM) social media channel.


    He and presenter George have been showing how to make vehicle modifications that are safe and legal.


    The pair said the objective was to educate and help cut the number of young drivers risking their lives on roads in badly modified cars.


    In this episode, we sit down with road safety advocate and veteran traffic sergeant Owen Messenger, whose work has focused on reducing road casualties and raising awareness about the importance of safe driving. Owen, with over 21 years of experience, shares the mission behind his road safety initiatives, including his impactful collaboration with George of GCM (George's Car Media), a popular social media platform with over a million followers.


    Together, they’ve harnessed the power of online content to educate and encourage safer driving practices, from understanding the risks of illegal modifications to discussing the devastating impact of distracted driving. Owen’s stories—from the importance of proactive safety measures to the emotional weight of delivering tragic news to families—offer viewers a unique perspective on what goes on behind the scenes in traffic enforcement. With discussions on the challenges police face today, public perceptions, and practical tips on road safety, this is a must-watch for anyone who uses the road.
