The Donegal Road Safety Working Group and Finn Harps FC have once again teamed up to assist with the promotion of road safety with the Primary School Road Safety Art Competition, which this year will be online.
The Road Safety Art competition invites young artists from Donegal’s Primary Schools, to create a piece of visual art that will raise awareness of how to stay safe on the roads. To enter as an individual, just get creative by making an original piece of art and uploading a photo of it online. The artwork will then be entered into the competition and reviewed by the judges. The winning artwork will be displayed at Finn Park for the coming season.
Stark warning over drink and drug driving
Gardai have launched their annual Christmas Drink Driving campaign which is supported by the Donegal Road Safety Working Group as part of their ongoing road safety awareness programme.
The message again this Christmas from the Gardai and the Donegal Road Safety Working Group is – Never, Ever Drink or Drug Drive. Drink driving destroys lives, families and communities and as the Christmas period approaches, stark warnings have been issued to road-users about the consequences of drink/drug driving. The DRSWG is appealing to all motorists to drive responsibly over the Christmas and New Year period as alcohol and drugs continue to be a significant contributory factor in fatal collisions.
