National Road Safety Week 2025

This National Road Safety Week, Tasmania Police is calling for all motorists to drive so everyone survives.

Assistant Commissioner Adrian Bodnar said road safety matters every week, but National Road Safety Week is a chance to highlight the real impact road trauma has on our community.

"Police are out and about on our roads every day and every night, working to keep people safe from harm," he said.

"Disappointingly, we continue to catch people speeding, drink driving and making poor decisions on our roads."

"It's quite simple – these poor decisions are resulting in deaths and serious injuries, and we need the behaviour to change."

"We know most people obey the rules most of the time, but that's just not enough."

"We need people to consistently make good decisions, no excuses."

"Drive so everyone survives."

"Anyone who witnesses dangerous driving behaviour should report it immediately to police on 131 444."

"If it's an emergency or life-threatening situation call Triple Zero (000)."

"If you can't report it at the time but have footage, submit it to the police evidence portal online."
