FATALITY FREE FRIDAY 2010
Fatality Free Friday 2010 took place on 28 May.
There were only two road fatalities in Australia on the day - the best result since Fatality Free Friday was founded in 2007.
Updates on the road toll, FFF news and activities that took place on the day are now being compiled and will be added to the web site today and over the course of the week.
We'd like to thank everyone who took part in FFF events around Australia, as well as our sponsors and partners.
Planning is also already underway for Fatality Free Friday 2011 which will take place again in May.
Fatality Free Friday is the chance for you to join the campaign for a fatality-free day on Australia's roads by taking the Fatality Free Friday pledge. It doesn't cost anything - you don't even have to give any details - just print out the Pledge and make a promise to yourself to go safe on the road on Fatality Free Friday.
We'd like to express our deep appreciation to Bev Brock for accepting the role of Patron of Fatality Free Friday last year, and also thank Suncorp Insurance, Armor All,
Isuzu D-Max and Tyres And More for returning as major sponsors in 2010.
We also highly value the backing of our other supporters for their recognition of the worth of Fatality Free Friday in reducing the road toll in Australia.
The assistance of our sponsors and supporters is enables us to get the word out even further this year, putting the spotlight on community activities and road safety publicity.
"My kids learned from a very young age not to let us even move the car out of the garage unless they (and we) were securely belted up, and now the grandkids do exactly the same. I bought my first car in 1966, had $6 cash left over so bought one seat belt for the drivers seat. Four weeks later I had a head-on smash with a much larger car. My little car was a write-off (but) I survived with nothing more than severe seatbelt bruising."
