Every Leaving Certificate student in Mayo will receive a good luck card from Mayo County Council and the gardaí in a novel initiative aimed at highlighting road safety.
The card contains a number of road safety tips along with a timetable of the examinations. “This summer will see many Leaving Cert students celebrating and attending various events and concerts so please pay attention on the roads, slow down, always wear your seatbelt, don't ever drink and drive and be an alert pedestrian,” said Noel Gibbons, MCC road safety education officer.
