Shocking Irish Speeding Campaign Video - UPDATE

So further to my blog about the Shocking Irish Speeding Campaign Video and from some further reading around the internet it has come to my attention that the classroom of children that gets "taken out" by the speeding driver is in fact meant to be representative of the amount of children that have been killed in Northern Ireland since 2000 by speeding drivers, I found this on the campaigns website sharetheroadtozero

"Since 2000 speeding has killed a classroom of our children"

The website also has some other information that is of interest including:

If you kill or seriously injure someone due to driving too fast for the conditions – there is no excuse. It will be your responsibility and you will have to live with the shame for the rest of your life. You could also go to prison for up to 14 years

Excessive speed is the biggest single principal factor for road death in Northern Ireland, killing 391 people and seriously injuring 2,903 since 2000.
   
Every road death is one too many – SHARE THE ROAD TO ZERO.
