70 car seats handed out in two days!

Laws are in place but not enforced ....make a difference and join the Women in Road Safety Forum

Women in Road Safety will be conducting a road safety campaign from 14th to 16th December 2012. The campaign will focus on the N3 Toll Route and will be based at the Shell Montrose facility, one of the busiest and most popular motorway sites on the route. The campaign will target two aspects of road safety: child safety in the car and general road safety awareness.

Women in Road Safety, a forum of The Road Safety Foundation, has reacted to Minister S’Bu Ndebele’s proposal to reduce the general speed limit from 120kph to 100kph. The forum points out that the existing speed limit for vehicles such as buses and taxis is already 100kph, and that many of the recent accidents involving public transport vehicles have been related to issues such as overloading and defective equipment, rather than speed alone.
