📓Research Highlights Late Night and Early Morning Risk for Young Drivers

New research from the Road Safety Authority Ireland highlights that late night and early morning driving presents the greatest risk for young drivers.

Between 2021 and 2025, 189 young drivers aged 17-25 were involved in fatal collisions in Ireland. More than half of these collisions occurred between 8pm and 4am.

Wherever you are coming from, make safe choices:
🚗 Slow down
📵 Avoid distractions
🔒 Wear your seatbelt
🚫 Never drive under the influence

Road safety is everyone's responsibility.
