2024 National Road Safety Week 💛💛💛https://roadsafetyweek.com.au/

Sunday 05 May 2024 - Sunday 12 May 2024

ROAD SAFETY IS EVERYONE'S RESPONSIBILITY

Today Sunday 05 May as in previous years we joined the Amber Community to help Shine a Light on Road Safety and make a difference in Road Safety by walking around the beautiful 4.8km Albert Park Lake track in Melbourne. The reflective walk was mostly flat, with a gentle breeze coming from Port Phillip Bay. https://getinvolved.ambercommunity.org.au/event/shine-a-light/your-impact

Amber Community provides education to the community and raises public awareness about road trauma and how it affects people’s lives .This is done by positively influencing drivers ' attitudes and behaviors to reduce crashes and the resulting trauma.

Amber Community provides free, confidential, and professional counseling available to people who have experienced a road incident in Victoria.

Fascinating information from our ISMA sponsor.

The touch we're developing analyzes alcohol found beneath the driver's skin by shining an infrared light on the surface, which can identify information on the skin's unique chemical properties, including specific concentrations of alcohol. Learn more:

A must-read article about Professor Leif Svanstrom
"........Leif was a trailblazer who challenged the status quo, promoting
and applying radical paradigm shifts that have fundamentally
changed injury prevention and safety promotion research and
practice.
► Research that focused on the causes of injury, not just the
incidence of injury.
► Research that targeted the systemic factors that cause injury,
not just behaviour.
► Interventions that targeted whole populations, not just
individuals.
► Interventions promoting the positive, wholistic social
phenomena of well-being, health, and safety9
, not just the
physical phenomenon of injury prevention.
► Interventions involving real-world application, not just
controlled experimental studies.
► Programmes that treated the target community as partners
rather than subjects.
It is easy to forget that many of these ideas considered best
practice today, were revolutionary in their time....."
