In a concerted effort to enhance road safety, the Road Safety Authority Ireland has declared National Slow Down Day, spanning from 7 am on Thursday, February 29, to 7 am on Friday, March 1. An Garda Síochána will be actively conducting speed checks across the country during this period. Motorists are urged to exercise caution and adhere to speed limits rigorously, contributing to a safer road environment.
The initiative emphasizes the collective responsibility of drivers in reducing speed-related incidents. The call to action is clear – slow down for National Slow Down Day. This timely effort aims to raise awareness about the significance of responsible driving and foster a safer road culture. Your commitment to reduced speeds can make a substantial difference in preventing accidents and safeguarding lives. Stay alert, reduce your speed, and ensure a safer journey for all.
