Transport Minister Paschal Donohoe today launched the Road Safety Authority (RSA) "Back to School" road safety campaign.

The RSA and Electric Ireland will distribute 85,500 high visibility vests to every child starting school this year. The vests will be included in the RSA's "Back to School" road safety packs which will be sent to primary schools nationwide over the coming months. The campaign urges parents and guardians to make road safety a priority in their back to school preparations.
