Road Safety Challenge! Be a hero, save lives

🚗🚙 Road Safety Challenge: Be a Hero, Save Lives 🚗🚙

Road safety week may be over, but that doesn’t give us 51 weeks of grace to be reckless on our roads. Not wearing seatbelts, speeding and risking our lives and others is never acceptable. Our commitment to road safety should be a constant effort.

Our team across the Road Safety Far North Districts has come up with a special package for our Matariki remembrance walk/event, and we would love for you to be a part of it. Whether you can contribute in a big or small way, your participation matters.

We know teams travel far, schools are fundraising for camps, sports teams, kapa haka competitions, whanau gather for important occasions, and marae need support with gears. We are all facing a living crisis.

As human beings, we naturally want to help each other. For us to be safer on our roads, it starts with each one of us making a conscious effort.

🚲🛵We are challenging all roopu of any age or any size to send us your creative entries:🛼🛴🚲

- Videos
- TikToks
- Posters
- Flyers
- Songs
- Haka

**Show us how you are a Road Safety Hero.**🤸‍♀️🤸‍♂️👨‍👩‍👧

How do you educate others to be safer on our roads? Share your messages, sayings, or any creative ideas you have.

We will post all entries on our page.

The prize will be determined based on the group or groups that win.

Planning on travelling up for The FIBA Polynesian Tournament?
Please note that SH1 through Mangamuka Gorge is closed.

The official detour route via SH10 (through Kaeo and Mangonui) is the safest and best Route coming North. Please avoid Twin Coast Discovery Route (through Broadwood and Ahipara)

Plan your trip and arrive safely to our Chilled Northland Vibes
