Students and gardaí team up for safe driving
Hundreds of students converged on Mallow yesterday where they saw crashed cars, graphic video images of injuries and listened to garda experts warn them about the dangers of speed and drink-driving.
The exercise was the brainchild of transition year students at St Mary’s Secondary School, Mallow, who were so worried about the carnage on Irish roads they sought the help of Inspector Billy Duane, who is in charge of the Garda Traffic Corps in the region.
