What is The Road Safety Club?

This article explains what the Road Safety Club is, why it helps make UK roads safer, and how you can join with a Gen 2 Dash Cam to report hazards and enjoy member perks - all while keeping your personal data protected.

What is the Road Safety Club?

The Road Safety Club is a free community of UK drivers who share dash cam footage of road dangers to help make roads safer. It also gives members money‑saving perks and extra protection on their Nextbase products.

Why you should join

Yes, you should join. It is free, helps improve road safety, and gives you useful benefits.

Why it matters

Data and privacy

The Road Safety Club is designed to protect your privacy while still using your footage to improve roads.

  • Only road data is shared

  • Footage is anonymised: no number plates, no faces, no audio

  • Data is used to help local councils and mapping companies identify and fix hazards

  • All footage is deleted after it has been used for analysis

Can it improve my local roads?

Yes. You can view and add reports on the Road Safety Club map to highlight issues in your area. This helps focus attention on the roads you use every day and can support real improvements over time.
