Meath Ogra Shinn Fein took to the streets and doorsteps of Navan Town to highlight the National Road Safety awareness campaign undertaken by Ogra Shinn Fein - 'Moilligh Síos!', translated as Slow Down will be the theme for the peer based campaign.
David Byrne, Meath Ogra Shinn Fein said,
''368 Men, Women and Children were fatally injured in road traffic accidents in 2006. We will be active on this campaign to highlight the dangers on the road and to urge people, especially our peers to take more care on the road.''
"This is only the beginning of the national campaign but in the coming weeks and months Meath Ógra intend to promote this issue as widely as possible through all platforms including murals, public meetings, leaflet and by simply engaging young people on the streets. Road deaths are the second killer of our young people, and it is something which must be combatted now."
