JMK Solicitors are once again delighted to be a corporate partner of New Driver Safety Ambassadors, who officially launched their Safe Motoring presentations at Lagan College, Belfast for the academic year 2019/2020.
New Driver Safety Ambassador Limited visit sixth forms in schools each year to deliver safe motoring presentations. Their aim is to educate all new drivers and passengers on making good motoring decisions. All participants are also given a free New Driver NI magazine.
Students are asked to sign the New Driver pledge which includes the following 5 rules.
- Respect the Speed Limit!
- No Mobile While Mobile!
- Never Drive When Tired!
- Not a Drop, Not a Drag!
- Belt Up, Front & Back!
Stephen Savage, Project Manager at New Driver Safety Ambassadors commented “The programme has been run for over five years now and is growing each year. Feedback from schools teachers and students is very positive. Making the pledge is a commitment to being as safe as possible on the roads.”
“Too many young people are still losing their lives or being seriously injured on the roads across Northern Ireland. We want to see these figures reduce every year. We have set an ambitious target to get 10,000 pledges this year and we have made a good start since September.”
The programme is completely free for schools as funding is provided by corporate sponsors including Charles Hurst First Time Buyer Centre, CRASH Services, Hankook Tyres, AB&C Insurance, DriveTech UK, Specsavers and JMK Solicitors. The Department for Infrastructure and some Policing and Community Safety partnerships also provide support.
