RSA killer simulator coming to Mallow with a timely scare for Hallowe’en

-

IN the run up to the October bank holiday weekend Cork County Council are hosting the RSA Shuttle & Roll Over Simulator in the Bowling Green Car Park in Mallow on Saturday the 27th of October in an attempt to further education the public about killer driver behaviours.

The RSA shuttle is an interactiv­e unit - an educationa­l experience demonstrat­ing killer driving behaviours, such as Driver Distractio­n (use of mobile phones, passenger behaviour, fatigue), Driving at excessive speed, and more.

Its main objective is to provide the general public and other target audiences with the chance to interact with various road safety campaigns and to spread the message about the importance of road safety.

The Shuttle will operate from 10am to 5pm on Saturday the 27th of October & Cork County Council are appealing to the public to come along and experience this interactiv­e road safety education service – It could save your life!

The Roll Over simulator also accompanie­s the Shuttle and highlights the importance of wearing your seat belt correctly.

The Roll Over simulator is fitted to a hydraulic platform which can simulate a 90 degree and 180 degree roll-over which demonstrat­es how it would feel if you were a driver or passenger involved in a less than desirable incident.

It will show visitors the effects of being suspended by your seat belt. After this demonstrat­ion, people will never travel in a car without wearing a seat belt, say the demonstrat­ors.

 ??  ?? The Roll Over simulator will show you the effects of being suspended upside down by your seat belt.
