"Seat Belts are a Necessity - Not an Accessory"
"Fatigue was a problem mentioned by 24% of drivers when travelling on holiday or long trips."
"Driving 5km/h above the speed limit in a 60km/h zone has the same level of casualty risk as driving at the New Zealand drink-driving limit (blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 50 mg/100 ml)."
"On average, texting drivers take their eyes off the road for up to 5 seconds at a time. At 90kph, that’s travelling the length of a football field completely blind."
