Keep the Race in its Place
9 videos • 6,236 views • by RSA Ireland The Road Safety Authority (RSA) and Motorsport Ireland have issued a joint safety message to fans attending Rally sporting events to "Keep the Race in its Place". The RSA and Motorsport Ireland are running a safety campaign around the event to convey life-saving road safety messages to the public and to the high-risk target audiences viewing Rally events. "The Rally enthusiasts are predominantly young men, and we want to talk directly to this 'at risk' group who follow the sport. Just like any other sport, there is a time and a place for rally driving. These events are heavily marshalled and take place in a highly disciplined and controlled environment. The drivers are specially trained and must wear special personal protective gear. Along with this, the cars are specially prepared for the purpose of rallying. Trying this without all of these precautions would be extremely unsafe." explained Noel Brett, Chief Executive, RSA.
