For over 100 years, we’ve been a trusted voice on road safety. And with September being Rural Road Safety Month, we’re deeply concerned that around 65% of fatalities on NSW roads happen in the country.
This Rural Road Safety Month (run by the Australian Road Safety Foundation), in partnership with the NSW Government, we believe it’s important to shine a light on country roads.
Through this knowledge imparted by respected Elders, we hope to help drivers become more aware of their surroundings, reducing the number of incidents on our country roads.
So, we’re asking drivers to take a moment to recognise that country roads offer much to see and learn.
With Rural Road Safety Month running all September long, we’re encouraging everyone to make a promise to be the change you want to see on the road.
Whether you're just starting out or have been driving for years, it's always important to stay sharp on road safety. Check out the following articles covering everything from wearing a seatbelt to dealing with unexpected wildlife, to help you stay safe every time you hit the road.
