Ógra Shinn Féin have produced a short film following the weekend's road safety vigil in Dublin. The road safety film includes shocking statistics on the number of deaths so far this year on Irish roads and includes interviews from activists representing Ógra Shinn Féin, Labour Youth and Young Greens.




National Organiser of Ógra Shinn Féin, Barry McColgan said,

"The road safety film demonstrates the urgent need for action on this serious issue which claims hundreds of young lives every year."

"It was heartening to see the enthusiasm of the other youth wings to work with us on this campaign."

"The short film also shows the encouaging response we received from the public in Dublin, as we engaged with them and spoke of the campaign and the importance of responsible driving."

"Thousands of people witnessed the vigil in Dublin, please help us raise the issue to thousands more by promoting this film and through it, promoting the message of road safety - Moilligh Síos!"
