Too many young people die on Kent's roads

Kent Fire and Rescue Service (KFRS) now attends 25% more road crashes than house fires. In the last three years over 500 young people have been killed or seriously injured on Kents roads. As well as being at risk themselves, young drivers pose a significant danger to others.
One in three young male drivers will write off the car in their first year of
driving. The most likely killer of teenage girls is teenage boys driving.
KFRS promotes now Operation Carmageddon, a campaign that aims to wake up youngsters' attention in order to drive more carefully. Ambulance drivers and firemen will be touring all over Kent and will explain to students why they must drive with caution, what are the risks and how to deal with them.
