Our friends over in the UK have been celebrating road safety week this week, so we thought we'd jump on board and make it international!
Throughout the week we’ve been getting to know some of our amazing local road safety heroes who have been sharing their own stories and tips about how to stay safe on our roads.
Our Facebook page has featured kōrero from Fire & Emergency New Zealand firefighter Paul Wilson, St John intensive care paramedic Orla Fowden and student paramedic Jess Stowe, Dr Alex McLeod from Lakes District Health Board, Police Serious Crash Unit investigator David Tidmarsh and Greenlea rescue helicopter pilot Nat Every.
