These Cork teens are making Irish roads safer for visiting drivers

Two fifth year students from Cork conducted research on Irish road safety and quality over the summer.

Mark Lynes and Aisha McAuliffe from Coláiste Treasa Secondary School in Kanturk surveyed more than 700 tourists during a summer internships at Europcar Ireland.

The pair were awarded the internships after receiving a special accolade at last year’s BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition for their joint road safety awareness project titled ‘Take Care! Be internationally road aware’.
