Year 12: Road Safety Awareness Program

The MFS Road Awareness Program (RAP) gives an open and honest insight into the experience of firefighters working in road crash rescue and provides a hard-hitting, realistic insight into road trauma.

RAP seeks to actively engage and empower drivers and other road users through positive peer pressure and its core message: “You get to choose the risk; but you don’t get to choose the consequences”.

Statistics show that road crashes are one of the major causes of death and serious injury for 16-24 years olds in South Australia. Whilst there is a significant downward trend in the fatalities for this age group, the statistics for fatalities in other age groups remain static.

Through RAP we can work towards keeping our mates safe on the roads with an honest, straightforward message, delivered through a powerful road safety presentation.
