3. The issues: road safety
Your client might advocate on a number of different yet related issues.
What issues your client campaign on?
Think targets issues which affect road safety; they campaign about drink driving,
speeding, fatigue, seat belts, mobile phones etc. They campaign against drunk
driving to encourage people not to do it.A previous campaign for Drink driving
hoped increase awareness of the personal consequences of a drink driving
conviction; there was a man that goes to the bar and what will happen if he
drinks and drive. They campaign to encourage people to wear their seat belts
when drive as there are legal consequences against not wearing one and the
dangers. Basically Think teach people about how to be safe on the roads ,and
teach them the legal and dangerous consequences if you don’t follow the law or
drive unsafely.
In relation to drink driving; the project I am doing o encourage the belief that 1
to 2 drinks are too many before driving
-To reinforce and build the social stigma.
What are some of the impacts they have managed to achieve?
Over 50 years they have managed to reduce the amount arrests for drink drinking.
What are they still hoping to achieve?
