ANTI DRINK-DRIVING CAMPAIGN TO BE LAUNCHED IN REGIONAL NSW

A new campaign is being launched across regional New South Wales, to combat drink driving.

The ‘Yeah… NAH” initiative targets men aged between 30 and 59 – the demographic at highest risk of driving under the influence.

“We want people to be considering other alternatives… to catch a courtesy bus, to get a lift home with a friend that has not been drinking or to stay somewhere safe.”

42 people died on country roads last year and more than half of those were middle-aged men.

The ad launches next Sunday.
