The End campaign is designed to raise young people's awareness about how driving is impaired through the use of drink or drugs.

The messages focus on both sexes for drink driving and drug driving awareness.

The 'Speak up to slow down' Campaign is provided by the Safety Camera Partnership.

Aimed at 16 -25 year olds, the campaign is designed to give passengers the voice to tell the driver what he / she is doing is dangerous and could result in serious injury and death.

It aims to encourage passenger responsibility by highlighting the fact that the actions of the passenger can influence the actions of the driver.

The graphic was designed by the West Mercia Safer Roads Partnership and is displayed on eighteen of our appliances around the county as well as a large image on the Community Outreach Vehicle.


'Speeding - It's not Impressive' ^ Top  

Firefighters attend a RTC involving cars and lorries on a Shropshire road       REMEMBER: Between the age of 16 and 25 you are more likely to be involved in a road accident than any other age group so take care and never speed


The 'Speeding - It's not Impressive' Campaign is provided by the Safety Camera Partnership.

Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service will be using the images on the back of some of their fire appliances to help get the message across to motorists throughout Shropshire.
