Sinn Féin MLA Cathal Boylan has urged road users to do everything in their power to stay safe and be vigilant on our roads.
Speaking ahead of the upcoming World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims on Sunday, 17 November, the party’s transport spokesperson said:
“Unfortunately many families continue to suffer the tragedy of losing a loved one on our roads.
“The upcoming World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims reminds us all of the collective responsibility we have on our roads to stay safe and to help protect the lives of others.
“I commend all those who have long campaigned for road upgrades to improve safety and save lives across our island.
“I would remind road users of the PSNI’s ‘Fatal Five’ strategy; don’t drink and drive, slow down, don’t get careless, belt up and stay off your phone.”
