The Road Traffic Management Corporation has
launched a campaign to educate young people to discourage the abuse of alcohol
in order to reduce the carnage on our roads.
A recent study on road crash fatalities indicated
that young people between the ages of 20 and 30 constitute 50% of road deaths.
RTMC Spokesperson Simon Zwane said as the Road
Traffic Management Corporation has partnered with the Industry association for
responsible alcohol use to discourage young people from driving under the
influence of alcohol.
Zwane added that we know that driving under the
influence of alcohol contributes enormously to car crashes and deaths on the
road.
“We are trying to assist young people, reduce the
road carnages, save lives and show that young people can grow and realize their
full potential.” Zwane concluded.
